I love that one too!! aren`t there moments when you really feel that is true?? It happened to me that when I read that book I has a lot of exams in school, I was sleeping pretty bad, I spent most of the day in my house and that phrase described pretty good what my days were like.

King`s:
"Shut up Lisey, we are watching the alceas"- Lisey`s story
"There was no sanity in a mind that could make a pair of eyes looked like that"- Insomnia
"Each thing I do I rush through so I can do something else"- Insomnia
"The months went to wherever months go to"- Blaze
"yesterday I dreamed I got back to Manderley"- Bag of bones
The last one is my favourite, does anyone know if it is from a real book? I mean, in the novel he says it is a famous phrase, but is it really?
Non-King`s:
"Every day has a minute in which I close my eyes and enjoy missing you"- Joaquin Sabina
"I want the best that this life can give and I don`t want it for tomorrow, I want it now"- a character in "dumb witness"- Agatha Christie.
"I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing" Agatha Christie.
