Stephen King, Skeleton Crew
"That rational voice was right to be frightened. There's something in us that is very much attracted to madness. Everyone who looks off the edge of a tall building has felt a faint, morbid urge to jump."

"كان ذلك الصوت العقلاني محقاً في خوفه. ففي أعماقنا شيء ينجذب بشدة إلى الجنون. وكل من أطلّ من حافة بناء شاهق قد شعر برغبة خافتة، مَرَضِيّة، في القفز."

"One man may shoot himself in the forehead with a .38 and wake up in the hospital. Another may shoot himself in the forehead with a .22 and wake up in hell...if there is such a place. I tend to believe it's here on earth, possibly in New Jersey."
"قد يطلق أحدهم رصاصة من مسدس عيار 38 في جبهته، فيستيقظ في المستشفى. وقد يطلق آخر رصاصة من مسدس عيار 22 في جبهته، فيستيقظ في الجحيم... إن كان هناك مكان كهذا. أميل إلى الاعتقاد بأنه هنا على الأرض، ربما في نيوجيرسي."

"A short story is a different thing altogether – a short story is like a quick kiss in the dark from a stranger."
