Stephen King developing a romance between a heterosexual couple: It's a man and a woman and they've interacted twice. Obviously they're in love. That doesn't need to be explained.
Stephen King developing a friendship between 2 males:
#When it comes to romance#he usually just has the characters say that they're in love instead of actually showing us how or why they fell for each other#We don't get to see the process of them falling in love#Because he seems to think that if a man and a woman spend time together it's a given that theyre in love#There's no pining#no crushes#no wondering if the other person feels the same way#its literally just “he was a boy and she was a girl can i make it any more obvious?”#but when it comes to friendship#he actually takes the time to explain the deep and meaningful nuances of their relationship#he describes the way that they feel about each other#which ultimately makes them seem more romantic than the actual couples#stephen king#stephen king books#stephen king fans#stephen king quotes#i just realized that i completely forgot about reddie???#shit

And the most terrifying question of all may be just how much horror the human mind can stand and still maintain a wakeful, staring, unrelenting sanity.”

Aren’t you sick of being sick and tired? [..] I hated it when he did that [cry], but I thought maybe this crying was different.

“The 3 types of terror:
the Gross-out: the sight of a severed head tumbling down a flight of stairs, it's when the lights go out and something green and slimy splatters against your arm.
the Horror: the unnatural, spiders the size of bears, the dead waking up and walking around, it's when the lights go out and something with claws grabs you by the arm.
And the last and worse one: Terror, when you come home and notice everything you own had been taken away and replaced by an exact substitute. It's when the lights go out and you feel something behind you, you hear it, you feel its breath against your ear, but when you turn around, there's nothing there...” ― Stephen King

"Suicide, Henry had discovered, had a voice. It wanted to explain itself. The problem was that it didn't speak much English; mostly it lapsed into its own fractured pidgin. But it didn't matter; just the talking seemed to be enough. Once Henry allowed suicide its voice, his life had improved enormously. He even had nights when he slept again (not a lot of them, but enough), and he had never had a really bad day." - Henry, 'Dreamcatcher'

“To be a beast is perhaps bearable, although the man who has become one will surely pay hell’s own price in the end…What could you do except degenerate from beast to monster?… To pay hell is one thing. But do you want to own it?”

There's something in us that is very much attracted to madness. Everyone who looks off the edge of a tall building has felt at least a faint, morbid urge to jump
