More quotes by Stephen King
The simple truth of things is that bad dreams are far better than bad wakings.
Stephen King
I didn't want to even stand next to any high rise building as long as I lived... I didn't even want to go over a bridge.
Stephen King
You're dead, George. You just don't have the sense to lie down.
Stephen King
There will be water if God wills it.
Stephen King
No one ever does live happily ever after, but we leave the children to find that out for themselves.
Stephen King
It's a hard life if you don't weaken.
Stephen King
Mornings belong to whatever is new the current composition. Afternoons are for naps and letters.
Stephen King
You couldn't get hold of the things you'd done and turn them right again. Such a power might be given to the gods, but it was not given to women and men, and that was probably a good thing. Had it been otherwise, people would probably die of old age still trying to rewrite their teens.
Stephen King
It was the possibility of darkness that made the day seem so bright.
Stephen King
City life is no life for a country man for such a man that life is a kind of damnation in itself.
Stephen King
I never had any friends later on like the ones I had when I was 12 - Jesus, did you?
Stephen King
The family exists for many reasons, but its most basic function may be to draw together after a member dies.
Stephen King
Pride was the belt you used to hold your pants up when you had no pants.
Stephen King
The scariest, most terrifying thing that I fear? Yes. My Imagination. I thought you were going to say Fear, itself. Then you have a small imagination.
Stephen King
I think it's relatively easy for people to accept something like telepathy or precognition or teleplasm because their willingness to believe doesn't cost them anything. It doesn't keep them awake nights. But the idea that the evil that men do lives after them is unsettling.
Stephen King
In many cases when a reader puts a story aside because it 'got boring,' the boredom arose because the writer grew enchanted with his powers of description and lost sight of his priority, which is to keep the ball rolling.
Stephen King
Pray for rain while digging a well.
Stephen King
She had never dreamed there could be so much pain in a life when there was nothing physically wrong. She hurt all the time.
Stephen King
It's dialogue that gives your cast their voices, and is crucial in defining their characters.
Stephen King
a cloud-congested caul that is alternately red, orange, vermilion, purple. Sometimes the clouds break apart in great, slow rafts, letting through beams of innocent yellow sunlight that are bitterly nostalgic for the summer that has gone by.
