Misery quotes

  • Paul Sheldon: [holding a rolled-up page of his manuscript] Remember how for all those years, nobody knew who Misery's real father was, or if they'd ever be reunited? It's all right here. Does she finally marry Ian, or will it be Winthorne? It's all right here.

    [lights a match and with it, lights the page]

    Annie Wilkes: Paul you can't!

    [drops her glass]

    Paul Sheldon: [Still holding the burning page] Why not? I learned it from you.

    [Puts the burning page down onto his manuscript, already on the floor, burning it]

  • Virginia McCain: We got a phone call? Busy morning.

    Sheriff John T. 'Buster' McCain: Yeah. Work, work, work.
