The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want for nothing. He makes me lie down in the green pastures. He greases up my head with oil. He gives me kung-fu in the face of my enemies. Amen
Stephen King
I never saw any of my dad's stories. My mother said he had piles and piles of manuscripts.
Stephen King
As for the end of the universe…I say let it come as it will, in ice, fire, or darkness. What did the universe ever do for me that I should mind its welfare?

Description begins in the writer’s imagination, but should finish in the reader’s.
Stephen King
When you write, you want to get rid of the world, don’t you? Of course you do. When you’re writing, you’re creating your own worlds.
Stephen King
Silent white light filled the world. And the righteous and unrighteous alike were consumed in that holy fire.
Stephen King
I don't mean that creative people are somehow finer, or more sensitive, and thus have finer, more sensitive nervous breakdowns - you can save that horseshit for the Sylvia Plath worshipers. It's just that creative people have creative breakdowns.
Stephen King
The crazy people of the world...shouldn't get to win. If God won't make it better after they do have their shitty little victories, then ordinary people have to. They have to try, at least.
Stephen King
Adults are the real monsters.
Stephen King
For me, good description usually consists of a few well-chosen details that will stand for everything else.
