The Stand
Stephen King
Top 10 Best Quotes
“That wasn't any act of God. That was an act of pure human fuckery.”
“Show me a man or a woman alone and I'll show you a saint. Give me two and they'll fall in love. Give me three and they'll invent the charming thing we call 'society'. Give me four and they'll build a pyramid. Give me five and they'll make one an outcast. Give me six and they'll reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they'll reinvent warfare. Man may have been made in the image of God, but human society was made in the image of His opposite number, and is always trying to get back home.”
“No one can tell what goes on in between the person you were and the person you become. No one can chart that blue and lonely section of hell. There are no maps of the change. You just come out the other side. Or you don't.”
“The place where you made your stand never mattered. Only that you were there...and still on your feet.”
“People who try hard to do the right thing always seem mad.”

“A person can't change all at once.”
“The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want for nothing. He makes me lie down in the green pastures. He greases up my head with oil. He gives me kung-fu in the face of my enemies. Amen”
“He smiles a lot. But I think there might be worms inside him making him smile.”
“You couldn't not like someone who liked the guitar.”
