More quotes by Dean Koontz
But the more people we love and the more deeply we love them, the more vulnerable we are to loss and grief and loneliness.
Dean Koontz
Without trust, there can be no tranquil resting of the mind.
Dean Koontz
Hope, however, isn't all that's needed to achieve change. Hope is a hand extended, but two hands are required to be pulled out of this deep hole. The second hand was faith.
Dean Koontz
When we don't allow ourselves to hope, we don't allow ourselves to have purpose. Without purpose, without meaning, life is dark. We've no light within, and we're just living to die.
Dean Koontz
Humanity is a parade of fools, and I am at the front of it, twirling a baton.
Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz
Living in the modern age, death for virtue is the wage. So it seems in darker hours. Evil wins, kindness cowers. Ruled by violence and vice we all stand upon thin ice. Are we brave or are we mice, here upon such thin, thin ice? Dare we linger, dare we skate? Dare we laugh or celebrate, knowing we may strain the ice? Preserve the ice at any price?
Dean Koontz
My wife is my first audience. She's a tough lady, so I can't say that I ever scare her. Except, of course, when she sees me the way I look before breakfast.
Dean Koontz
In the real world as in dreams nothing is quite what it seems. -The Book of Counted Sorrows
Dean Koontz
I fall down on the side of free will, simply because if you look at where I came from, and what I was able to do in my life, what was able to happen.
Dean Koontz
I don't write a quick draft and then revise instead, I work slowly page by page, revising and polishing.
Dean Koontz
Most universities are no longer temples of knowledge, but of power, and true moderns worship there.
Dean Koontz
Rub-a-dub-dub. Cerebrum in a tub.
Dean Koontz
What popped up more than that was the realization that I made as an adult that the world is this incredibly complex, layered, and mysterious place and if you stop and think about it the human cell is literally more complex than a fleet of 747s.
Dean Koontz
Stay low, stay quiet, keep it simple, don't expect too much, enjoy what you have.
