More quotes by Dean Koontz
Readers will stay with an author, no matter what the variations in style and genre, as long as they get that sense of story, of character, of empathetic involvement.
Dean Koontz
I'll sit in the park and feed the pigeons for a while.' We don't have pigeons.' Then I'll feed the pterodactyls.
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
In this age, lies were the universal lubricant of the culture. A love of Truth and commitment to it were seldom rewarded and were often punished.
Dean Koontz
Each reader needs to bring his or her own mind and heart to the text.
Dean Koontz
We can approach belief from an intellectual path, but in the end, God must be taken on faith. Proofs are for things of this world, things in time and of time, not beyond time.
Dean Koontz
Or maybe they were just doing it for fun. A lark. Their religion is tolerant of extreme forms of recreation. Boys will be boys, after all, and sociopathic boys will be sociopathic.
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
What has been is no more. Change has come.
Dean Koontz
mankind has no right to employ its genius in the creation of another intelligent species, then treat it like property. If we've come so far that we can create as God creates, then we have to learn to act with the justice and mercy of God.
Dean Koontz
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
Although I've said a million times that I'm not a horror writer, I do like horror.
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
In the belly of Leviathan ... one can either despair and perish, or be cheerful and persevere.
Dean Koontz
Despair is good. Despair can be the nadir of one life and the starting point of an ascent into another, better one.
Dean Koontz
A good dog is one of the best things of all to be.
Dean Koontz
A great deal of phenomenal experience has fostered in me a flexibility of the mind and imagination that some might call madness
Dean Koontz
Books had shown me, however, that all people everywhere wanted their lives to have purpose and meaning. This longing was universal.
Dean Koontz
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
His blue eyes were seas where sorrow sailed.
