The trick is to teach yourself to read in small sips as well... - Stephen King

"I don't believe in any actual thinking God that marks the fall of every bird in Australia or every bug in India, a God that records all of our sins in a big golden book and judges us when we die - I don't want to believe in a God who would deliberately create bad people and then deliberately send them to roast in a hell He created-but I believe there has to be something"

"The mind can calculate, but the spirit yearns, and the heart knows what the heart knows"

"Fiction is the truth inside the lie."

"A lot of us grow up and we grow out of the literal interpretation that we get when we're children, but we bear the scars all our life. Whether they're scars of beauty or scars of ugliness, it's pretty much in the eye of the beholder."

"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."
