Image
we must seize life because we never know how much of it remains for us, that faith is the antidote to despair and that laughter is the music of faith.

Sometimes there is no darker place than our thoughts, the moonless midnight of the mind.
Dean Koontz
Image
Lots of people are unable to see all kinds of truths right in front of their eyes. The world is what we make it, and our future is ours to shape.

Image
Because people see violence on the movie screen, they're not going to go out and hold up a liquor store and kill somebody. It really doesn't correlate.
Dean Koontz
Image
The process, not the final achievement, is what it's all about.
Dean Koontz
Image
In our age, self-indulgence and self-destruction, rather than self-sacrifice, are the foundations for new heroic myths.
Dean Koontz
Image
Perseverance is impossible if we don't permit ourselves to hope.
Dean Koontz
Image
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
Image
I don't mean to imply that I'm afraid of Death. I'm just not ready to go out on a date with him.
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
The true nature of the world was weirder than any bizarre fabric that anyone might weave from the warp and weft of imagination's loom.

If we were capable of thinking of everything, we would still be living in Eden, rent-free with all-you-can-eat buffets and infinitely better daytime TV programming.
