Dean Koontz
Image
You won't find the truth of life in morbidity, only in hope.
Dean Koontz
Image
Every life is complicated, every mind a kingdom of unmapped mysteries.
Dean Koontz
Image
We are coming out of a century that was taught that one way of looking at the world, that one form of behavior, is as valid as another. The idea of true evil has been blown away.
Dean Koontz
Image
Not all popular novelists are good, but all good novelists are, sooner or later, popular.
Dean Koontz
Image
When it came to formal classes, I was a slacker. But I've always been a diligent autodidact and can teach myself virtually any subject if I have a serious interest in it.
Dean Koontz
Image
The things we worry about the most are never the things that bite us. The sharpest teeth always take their nip of us when we are looking the other way.
Dean Koontz
Image
The functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion and empathy.
Dean Koontz
Image
