When in doubt, just spit it out. That all challenges can be overcome by speaking the truth, no matter how itcomes out.
Dan Brown
Image
Pure energy is the father of creation.
Dan Brown
Image
Of course you can't stop. It is physically impossible for the human mind to think of nothing. The soul craves emotion, and it will continue to seek fuel for that emotion-good or bad. Your problem is that you're giving it the wrong fuel.

Soon you will lose everything you hold most dear.

Image
For me, the spiritual quest will be a life-long work in progress.
Dan Brown
Image
For me, a good thriller must teach me something about the real world. Thrillers like 'Coma,' 'The Hunt for Red October' and 'The Firm' all captivated me by providing glimpses into realms about which I knew very little - medical science, submarine technology and the law.

Image
Sometimes all it takes is a tiny shift of perspective to see something familiar in a totally new light.

In which year did a Harvard sculler last outrow an Oxford man at Henley? Langdon had no idea, but he could imagine only one reason the question had been asked. Surely such a travesty has never occurred.

When his brain died, all of the memories held in his gray matter, along with all of the knowledge he had acquired, would simply evaporate in a flood of chemical reactions.
Dan Brown
Image
I'm fascinated by power, especially veiled power. Shadow power. The National Security Agency. The National Reconnaissance Office. Opus Dei. The idea that everything happens for reasons we're not quite seeing.
Dan Brown
Image
The human mind has a primitive ego defense mechanism that negates all realities that produce too much stress for the brain to handle. It’s called Denial.

FACT: The Priory of Sion - a European secret society founded in 1099 - is a real organization. In 1975 Paris's Bibliothque Nationale discovered parchments known as Les Dossiers Secrets, identifying numerous members of the Priory of Sion, including Sir Isaac Newton, Botticelli, Victor Hugo, and Leonardo da Vinci.

I don't read horror, ever. When I was 15, I made the mistake of reading part of 'The Exorcist.' It was the first and last horror book I've ever opened.
Dan Brown
Image
Science tells me God must exist. My mind tells me I will never understand God. And my heart tells me I am not meant to.
Dan Brown
Image
Writing an informative yet compact thriller is a lot like making maple sugar candy. You have to tap hundreds of trees - boil vats and vats of raw sap - evaporate the water - and keep boiling until you've distilled a tiny nugget that encapsulates the essence.

Image
Men go to far greater lengths to avoid what they fear than to obtain what they desire.
Dan Brown
Image
As strange as this may sound, I very seldom read fiction. Because my novels require so much research, almost everything I read is non - fiction - histories, biographies, translations of ancient texts.

By its very nature, history is always a one-sided account.
Dan Brown

Throughout history, every period of enlightenment has been accompanied by darkness, pushing in opposition. Such are laws of nature and balance.
