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
If we were always conscious of the fact that people precious to us are frighteningly mortal, hanging not even by a thread, but by a wisp of gossamer, perhaps we would be kinder to them and more grateful for the love and friendship they give to us.
Dean Koontz
Being polite is not only the right way to respond to people but also the easiest. Life is so filled with unavoidable conflict that I see no reason to promote more confrontations.
Dean Koontz
After once having made the mistake of watching television news, I had worried for a while about an asteroid hitting the earth and wiping out human civilization. The anchorwoman had said it was not merely possible but probable. At the end of the report, she smiled.
Dean Koontz
No, if there's any ultimate redemption, it would be because I passed though your life without scarring you, and did not diminish who you are.
Dean Koontz
Faced with the challenge of an endless universe, Man will be forced to mature further, just as the Neanderthal-faced with an entire planet-had no choice but to grow away from the tradition of savagery.
Dean Koontz
Sometimes there is no darker place than our thoughts, the moonless midnight of the mind.
Dean Koontz
Some lives, conducted with grace, are beautiful arcs bridging this world to eternity.
