I want to engage the reader. I'm an emotional writer, in the sense that I would be happy if you re-read a book for the intellectual or the mental part of it, but, the first time, I just like to reach out and grab you, pull you in.

More quotes by Stephen King
We make up horrors to help us cope with the real ones.
Stephen King
Weird love's better than no love at all.
Stephen King
It's a hard life if you don't weaken.
Stephen King
The mystery of the universe is not time but size.
Stephen King
THE THREE is really wonderful. A mix of Michael Crichton and Shirley Jackson, hard to put down and vastly entertaining.
Stephen King
We fool ourselves so much we could do it for a living.
Stephen King
Let the word and the legend go before you. Let the world go before you. Let your shadow grow. Let it grow hair on its face. Let it become dark. Given time, words may even enchant an enchanter.
Stephen King
He killed them with their love.
Stephen King
If you don’t have the time to do something right, where are you going to find the time to fix it?
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
The quickest way to learn about a new place is to know what it dreams of.
Stephen King
Life turns on a dime. Sometimes towards us, but more often it spins away, flirting and flashing as it goes: so long, honey, it was good while it lasted, wasn’t it?
Stephen King
I think that friendship always makes us feel such sweet gratitude, because the world almost always seems like a very hard desert, and the flowers that grow there seem to grow against such high odds.
Stephen King
When you write you tell yourself a story. When you rewrite you take out everything that is NOT the story.
Stephen King
Whatever came to mind, whatever came to hand, I would read.
Stephen King
I think everybody has experiences from time to time they can't explain. They are peculiarities. Usually we just dismiss them because they are uncomfortable to think about.
Stephen King
Any thoughts of guilt, any feelings of regret, had faded. The desert had baked them out.
Stephen King
But it's hard for a man to give up all his pleasures, even when they don't pleasure him no more.
Stephen King
and then woe is you, Pauly. Woe to the max.
Stephen King
He did it (listened) as the world's most charming and magnetic people do, always asking the right question at the right time, never fidgeting or taking his eyes from the speaker's face, making the other guy feel like the most knowledgeable, brilliant, and intellectually savvy person on the planet.
