Hahaha...no! Good guess though!!
This is from a novel. A better hint would be that the things in the jar are ordinary things..but not to this King character---if he picks one up..........
Better hint? (Practically giving it away) many believe this particular novel was written as sort of a personal nightmare of King's concerning one Mr. Bachman.

oh fuck The Dark Half.
and actually this novel was written DIRECTLY because of the bachman ordeal. Originally, both Misery and Machine Dreams were to be Bachman books. The pseudo was outed just before Misery's publication, altho rumors abound that there are a select few copies bound under the bachman name (rumors i find unfounded). Machine Dreams was incorporated into TDH, which was King's way of basically railing at his revealer that his obfuscation was none of the fucker's business, especially as the asshole only did it to earn himself a fat bonus check.
Yep! I was trying not to say "IT IS PENCILS IN THE JAR!" but I guess with that last bit I might as well have!
And Adumbros--the other half (the darker half???) of the rumor was that King thought he was Bachman while writing Bachman and King all the rest of the time, much like Thad. Although as a creative person ,the idea gives me the heebie geebies, I doubt very much that King thought Richard Bachman was going to unearth himself somewhere and set out to find him!

It happens to be my favorite, and I also happen to be doing a reread currently. I couldn't resist!

i didn't need the "better hint". didn't even notice it at first go. but anyways...
Psychotics, rocked in the poison cradles of their own egos, want to do everybody handy a favor and take them along.
Give me five...maybe ten minutes....

if you're a writer, then you know how ridiculous that sounds. you do indeed feel as though you are merely a controlled vessel for a god to channel the machine. personally, i can barely do longhand anymore; the sight of my own handwriting repulses me. however, give me a computer, or typewriter, and suddenly, another creature comes into being, one more intelligent, more articulate, better educated, hell, even sexier. Albeit not in a clinical sense, perhaps, writers are still perpetuators of multiple-personality syndrome.
and i do, in fact, have a name for the "other."
I think it sounds incredibly ridiculous to beleive that Bachman would unearth himself and come looking for King.
And I am a writer, thank you.
As for your random line ,I cna't be sure, because I have too much of a headache to go page by page to make certain--but that has GOT to be Paul Sheldon...so Misery?
YOU MUST CHILL. I HAVE HIDDEN YOUR KEYS.
it's not a quote, per se, but yes, Misery. pg. 160 to be exact.
I love that King quote. I've used one similar for years. "I love children," I say, "I just couldn't eat a whole one."
Also: I like my women like I like my coffee; ground up and in the freezer.

Ah crap....winning loses its flavor when I realize I have to come up with another one!!!!
(And yeah, I knew it wasn't a quote, but one of his little interior monologue type things. I tried to check it to be sure and gave up when I realized the ones I Was seeing were too similar to the one you posted & it had to be right!).
Okay next random line from nowhere:
"Whatever was wrong with her had advanced during the night, and her appearance was bad enough to cut through his daze like a sharp knife".

Friends come in and out of your life like busboys in a restaurant, did you ever notice that?
Ooh that's a good one...it rings a bell but I am not sure if it's only because I am thinking of the "single serving friends" in Fight Club...::goes to sort through library::

you won't find it easily Ves. That I promise you.
Okay, I cheated, but I've got it. The familiarity of it would drive me crazy if I didn't look it up.
I'll sit back & let someone else guess since I went about it the easy way.
