More quotes by Stephen King
I write about rats because they scare the hell out of me. I think we tend to write out our phobias.
Stephen King
Trust, a sense of humor, and don't let the sun go down on an argument without trying to make it up. That's all I know about good marriage. I've been married a long time - it seems to be working.
Stephen King
and so will the world end, I think, a victim of love rather than hate. For love's ever been the more destructive weapon, sure.
Stephen King
Crying was like pissing everything out on the ground.
Stephen King
You've got to do something to fill up your day. And I can only play so much guitar and watch so many TV shows. It fulfills me. There are two things about it I like: It makes me happy, and it makes other people happy.
Stephen King
Make-up covers a multitude of sins.
Stephen King
Give a man or woman back his self-respect, and in most cases-not all, but most-you also give back that person's ability to think with at least some clarity.
Stephen King
There had never been a shortage of fools in the world
Stephen King
Remember, Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies.
Stephen King
Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.
Stephen King
Any word you have to hunt for in a thesaurus is the wrong word. There are no exceptions to this rule.
Stephen King
Mornings belong to whatever is new the current composition. Afternoons are for naps and letters.
Stephen King
Memories are contrary things if you quit chasing them and turn your back, they often return on their own.
Stephen King
The kids accepted my drinking as a part of life. Not a particularly pernicious part. I didn't beat up on them. Basically I don't think I was so different from a lot of dads who have three or four martinis when they get in from work, wine with dinner and so on.
Stephen King
Long days and pleasant nights
Stephen King
Writing is magic, as much the water of life as any other creative art. The water is free. So drink. Drink and be filled up.
Stephen King
Talent is a dreadfully cheap commodity, cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work and study a constant process of honing. Talent is a dull knife that will cut nothing unless it is wielded with great force.
Stephen King
Passing time adds false memories and modifies real ones.
Stephen King
Let's face it. No kid in high school feels as though they fit in.
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
