Authors, he thought. Even the sane ones are nuts.
Dan Brown
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.
Dan Brown
Oh, this faithless world! Someone must deliver them. You. If not you, who? You have been saved for a reason. Show them the old demons. Remind them of their fear. Apathy is death. Without darkness, there is no light. Without evil, there is no good. Make them choose. Dark or light. Where is the fear? Where are the heroes? If not now, when?
Dan Brown
As he flushed, an unexpected realization hit him. This is the Pope's toilet, he thought. I just took a leak in the Pope's toilet. He had to chuckle. The Holy Throne.
Dan Brown
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.
Dan Brown
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.
Dan Brown
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.
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
These books can't possibly compete with centuries of established history, especially when that history is endorsed by the ultimate bestseller of all time. Faukman's eyes went wide. Don't tell me Harry Potter is actually about the Holy Grail. I was referring to the Bible. Faukman cringed. I knew that.
Dan Brown
Neutrinos have mass? i didn't even know they're Catholic! Robert to Vittoria
Dan Brown
Langdon turned to Sophie. Who is that? What... happened? Teabing hobbled over. You were rescued by a knight brandishing an Excalibur made by Acme Orthopedic.
Dan Brown
...your memories will be muddled and uncataloged - past, present, and imagination all mixed together. The same thing happens in dreams.
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
When multiple explanations exist, the simplest is usually correct.
Dan Brown
Google' is not a synonym for 'research'.
Dan Brown
God, grant me strength to accept those things I cannot change.
Dan Brown
The decisions of our past are the architects of our present.
Dan Brown
What's the matter?'' She immediately started laughin. ''What's the mattter? Everything is the matter! Rocks! Trees! Atoms! Even anteaters! Everything is the matter!
Dan Brown
Wealth is commonplace but wisdom is rare. I beg you to remember that wealth without wisdom can often end in disaster.
Dan Brown
It's not about what you tell the reader, it's about what you conceal.
