More quotes by Dean Koontz
Home is the first refuge from - and last defense against - the disappointments and the terrors of life.
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
The only reason I would write a sequel is if I were struck by an idea that I felt to be equal to the original. Too many sequels diminish the original.
Dean Koontz
We need to laugh at the irrationality of evil, for in doing so we deny evil's power over us, diminish its influence in the world, and tarnish the allure it has for some people.
Dean Koontz
When I'm working on a novel, I work 70-hour weeks.
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 wishes were filet mignon, we'd always eat well at dinner
Dean Koontz
She says what holds their marriage together is that she feels too damn sorry for him to ask for a divorce.
Dean Koontz
Not all or even most suffering is at the hands of fate it befalls us at our invitation.
Dean Koontz
Alliteration seems to offend people.
Dean Koontz
A silent dark...as black as a moonless lake, as a ravine's wings, darkness there and nothing more, merely this and nothing more.
Dean Koontz
A short-order cook, just off work, makes easy tracking for lions and worse
Dean Koontz
Life's mysterious, strange, and full of wonders - and only a fool withdraws from it willingly and lets it pass him by.
Dean Koontz
I have a sofa on which I never nap, big windows with an ocean view that I rarely see because I keep the pleated shades down at all times while working. I know I'm a potential slacker, so I don't tempt myself.
Dean Koontz
Houses are not haunted. We are haunted, and regardless of the architecture with which we surround ourselves, our ghosts stay with us until we ourselves are ghosts.
Dean Koontz
Behind every closed door might wait a thief of minds and a collector of souls.
Dean Koontz
The snow did not even whisper its way to earth, but seemed to salt the night with silence.
Dean Koontz
I am no theologian. I would not be surprised, however, if Heaven proved to be a cozy kitchen, where delicious treats appeared in the oven and in the refrigerator whenever you wanted them, and where the cupboards were full of good books.
Dean Koontz
But once an idea for a novel seizes a writer...well, it’s like an inner fire that at first warms you and makes you feel good but then begins to eat you alive, burn you up from within. You can’t just walk away from the fire it keeps burning. The only way to put it out is to write the book.
Dean Koontz
There are days when it seems to me that in literature the most convincing depiction of the world in which we live is to be found in the phantasmagorical kingdom through which Lewis Carroll took Alice on a tour.
