Angels and demons were identical--interchangeable archetypes--all a matter of polarity. The guardian angel who conquered your enemy in battle was perceived by your enemy as a demon destroyer.

More quotes by Dan Brown
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
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.
Dan Brown
She saved my life...and I’ve ruined hers. They sat in silence for a full minute, the air between them growing heavy, as if they both wanted to speak, and yet had nothing to say. They were strangers, after all, on a brief and bizarre journey that had just reached a fork in the road, each of them now needing to find seperate paths.
Dan Brown
If I'm not at my desk by 4 AM, I feel like I'm missing my most productive hours. In addition to starting early, I keep an antique hour glass on my desk and every hour break briefly to do pushups, sit-ups, and some quick stretches. I find this helps keep the blood (and ideas) flowing.
Dan Brown
To live in the world without becoming aware of the meaning of the world is like wandering about in a great library without touching the books.

Suggesting a married Jesus is one thing, but questioning the Resurrection undermines the very heart of Christian belief.

The human body is amazing, she said. If you deprive it of one sensory input, the other senses take over, almost instantly.
Dan Brown
Fear cripples faster than any implement of war.
Dan Brown
The truth, however, was stranger still.
Dan Brown
Religion is flawed, but only because man is flawed.
Dan Brown
Misunderstanding a culture's symbols is a common root of predujice.

Vittoria slipped off her robe. 'You've never been to bed with a yoga master, have you?
Dan Brown
We did not have a television while I was growing up, and so I read voraciously. My earliest memory of being utterly transfixed by a book was Madeleine L'Engle's 'A Wrinkle in Time.
Dan Brown
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.
Dan Brown
If you ask three people what it means to be Christian, you will get three different answers. Some feel being baptized is sufficient. Others feel you must accept the Bible as immutable historical fact. Still others require a belief that all those who do not accept Christ as their personal savior are doomed to hell.
Dan Brown
Everyone thinks that religion is the ball and chain. But the reality is that sin is the ball and chain. A relationship with Christ is the freedom that people are looking for in alcohol and drugs.
Dan Brown
Sometimes, divine revelation simply means adjusting your brain to hear what your heart already knows. Angels and Demons p. 484
Dan Brown
...your memories will be muddled and uncataloged - past, present, and imagination all mixed together. The same thing happens in dreams.
Dan Brown
Denial is a critical part of the human coping mechanism. Without it, we would all wake up terrified every morning about all the ways we could die. Instead, our minds block out our existential fears by focusing on stresses we can handle—like getting to work on time or paying our taxes.
Dan Brown
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.
