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
Writing a novel is like making love, but it's also like having a tooth pulled. Pleasure and pain. Sometimes it's like making love while having a tooth pulled.
Dean Koontz
All these girls swooning over hunky vampires, what they really want is to give away their freedom, to be controlled and told what to do and not have to think -- and never die, of course. It's sick is what it is. I don't want to be a forever-young living corpse.
Dean Koontz
Perseverance is impossible if we don't permit ourselves to hope.
Dean Koontz
All I ask of Fate is that the people she hurls into my life, whether they are evil or good, or morally bipolar, should be amusing to one degree or another.... The problem is finding smile-inducing evil people, because the evil are the most humorless, though in the movies they frequently get some of the best lines.
Dean Koontz
If you want to publish two books a year under your own name and your publisher doesn't, maybe you need a different publisher.
Dean Koontz
That's all that matters, really: that we can make each other feel better.
Dean Koontz
These days, people spent too much time striving to understand their feelings - and then ended up with none that were genuine.
Dean Koontz
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.
Dean Koontz
The functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion and empathy.
Dean Koontz
Humanity was drawn to turmoil and self-destruction as inevitably as the earth was drawn to complete its annual revolution of the sun.
Dean Koontz
We are not strangers to ourselves, we only try to be.
Dean Koontz
Every talent is unearned, however, and with it comes a solemn obligation to use it as fully and as wisely as possible.
Dean Koontz
I don't find slashing and blood flying everywhere to be scary. I just find it repulsive.
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
This world, which has the potential to be Eden, is instead the hell before Hell. In our arrogance, we have made it so.
Dean Koontz
Recognizing the structure of your psychology doesn't mean that you can easily rebuild it.
Dean Koontz
Sometimes it seemed that the human heart, this side of Eden, feared life more than death, light more than darkness, freedom more than surrender.
Dean Koontz
Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself.
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.
