Top 5 quotes from Stephen King

"Each life makes its own immitation of immortality."
"[I work until] beer o'clock."
"If you don't have the time to read, you don't have the time or the tools to write."

"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..."

Top 5 quotes from Atheism

"If women are expected to do the same work as men, we must teach them the same things."
"What makes a good follower? The single most important characteristic may well be a willingness to tell the truth. In a world of growing complexity leaders are increasingly dependent on their subordinates for good information, whether the leaders want to hear it or not. Followers who tell the truth and leaders who listen to it are an unbeatable combination."
"Every composer knows the anguish and despair occasioned by forgetting ideas which one has not time to write down."
"Any great work of art revives and readapts time and space, and the measure of its success is the extent to which it makes you an inhabitant of that world -- the extent to which it invites you in and lets you breathe its strange, special air."
"Bill Dickey is learning me his experience."
