More quotes by 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
People who go to work every day, make sacrifices to raise families, and get through life without hurting other people if they can help it-those are the real heros.
Dean Koontz
You have to stop worrying about looking foolish, 'cause fear of being humiliated really limits you.
Dean Koontz
Loving the ideal more than the reality is the cause of all the misery the human species creates for itself.
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 try not to spend too much time on partisan politics. Life's too short for that. I don't really believe that there have been many human problems solved by politics.
Dean Koontz
All human lives are so profoundly and intricately entwined-those dead, those living, those generations yet to come-that the fate of all is the fate of each, and the hope of humanity rests in every heart and in every pair of hands.
Dean Koontz
Writing isn't a source of pain. It's psychic chemotherapy. It reduces your psychological tumors and relieves your pain.
Dean Koontz
Never leave a friend behind. Friends are all we have to get us through this life--and they are the only things from this world that we could hope to see in the next.
Dean Koontz
Don't tell me what's necessary, you presumptupus pup. What's necessary is whatever I wish to do, regardless of how unnecessary it might be.
Dean Koontz
As much as I've produced it looks to people like I must have written quickly, but it isn't that - because I put in in a sixty- or seventy-hour week.
Dean Koontz
In our age, self-indulgence and self-destruction, rather than self-sacrifice, are the foundations for new heroic myths.
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 never discuss a novel while I'm writing it, for fear that talking about it will diminish my desire to write it.
Dean Koontz
I have avoided becoming stale by putting a little water on the plate, lying on the plate, and having myself refreshed in a toaster oven for 23 minutes once every month.
Dean Koontz
The world is full of broken people. Splints, casts, miracle drugs, and time can't mend fractured hearts, wounded hearts, wounded minds, torn spirits.
Dean Koontz
He is different, and there will be many people you love who will be unhappy with you. You don’t want them to feel you’ve dishonored them. Yes, I know how it is. But life is short. A chance for great happiness doesn’t come along all that often.
Dean Koontz
Stay low, stay quiet, keep it simple, don't expect too much, enjoy what you have.
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
Those who wish to punish the current and future generations for the inequities of a generation long gone, and who equate justice with revenge, are the most dangerous people in the world.
Dean Koontz
