More quotes by Dean Koontz
I am the One, and I see all. But the blind man in Apartment 1-A is blind in many ways, as are all human beings, even those with functioning eyes. They are blind to their folly, to their ignorance, to their history, to the future that they will make for themselves. A future born of self-loathing.
Dean Koontz
The desire to write well can never be fulfilled without hard work.
Dean Koontz
The rain wasn't the usual glittering silver, but dark and dirty, as if nature were a scrubwoman wringing out a filthy mop.
Dean Koontz
To a predator, fear indicates weakness.
Dean Koontz
When you have dogs, you witness their uncomplaining acceptance of suffering, their bright desire to make the most of life in spite of the limitations of age and disease, their calm awareness of the approaching end when their final hours come. They accept death with a grace that I hope I will one day be brave enough to muster.
Dean Koontz
Stay low, stay quiet, keep it simple, don't expect too much, enjoy what you have.
Dean Koontz
We're out of cocktail olives, it's a tragedy of historic proportions, but we're coping because we're Americans.
Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz
I was looking forward to having a halo. It would make such a convenient reading lamp.
Dean Koontz
Somebody asked me about the current choice we're being given in the presidential election. I said, Well, it's like two of the scariest movies I can imagine.
Dean Koontz
And the funny thing was if you made the best of it, if you smiled through every storm, the bad things were never as terrible as you expected them to be, and the good things were better than anything you could have wished for yourself.
Dean Koontz
A good dog is one of the best things of all to be.
Dean Koontz
A silent dark...as black as a moonless lake, as a ravine's wings, darkness there and nothing more, merely this and nothing more.
Dean Koontz
Every eye sees its own special vision every ear hears a most different song. In each man's troubled heart, an incision would reveal a unique, shameful wrong.
Dean Koontz
Every human being has appetites difficult to control but far fewer have humility, gentleness, and an awareness of their weaknesses.
Dean Koontz
What doesn't quicken dies. That's an indisputable truth of life.
Dean Koontz
Maybe there's nothing impossible tonight. We're down the hole to Wonderland, and no White Rabbit to guide us. If I remember correctly, the White Rabbit was an unreliable guide, anyway.
Dean Koontz
There's evil in the world, all right. Being aware of it makes you a realist, not a paranoid.
Dean Koontz
Home is the first refuge from - and last defense against - the disappointments and the terrors of life.
Dean Koontz
I think the world is an interesting place and I don't think anybody has the firm and final answer to what it is but I kind of assume there's a purpose.
