More quotes by Dean Koontz
I think the world is an interesting place and I don't think anybody has the firm and final answer to what it is but I kind of assume there's a purpose.
Dean Koontz
It is music that speaks to the deepest reaches of your soul, and you are lifted higher, ever higher, by the adagio, in my opinion more so even than in any of the masses that Beethoven composed.
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
Only time conquers time and its burdens.
Dean Koontz
I'm alive but I have no life. I'm alive but also dead. I'm dead and alive.
Dean Koontz
There's never any humongous next draft. I know a writer who every time he finished a novel - you would know his name very well - but his editor would come and live with him for a month. And they would go through the manuscript together.
Dean Koontz
What does worry accomplish except to breed more worry?
Dean Koontz
Literary fiction, as a strict genre, is all but dead. Meanwhile, most genres flourish.
Dean Koontz
That is, Jack thought, the way of life. The horror changes us, because we can never forget. Cursed with memory. It starts when we're old enough to know what death is and realize that sooner or later we'll lose everyone we love. We're never the same. But somehow we're all right. We go on.
Dean Koontz
If someone wrote it and it had a peculiar twist, I've read it.
Dean Koontz
Thanks to the circus between my ears, I can seize upon the smallest disquieting observation and from it extrapolate a terror of cataclysmic proportions.
Dean Koontz
We're out of cocktail olives, it's a tragedy of historic proportions, but we're coping because we're Americans.
Dean Koontz
There's evil in the world, all right. Being aware of it makes you a realist, not a paranoid.
Dean Koontz
If we were capable of thinking of everything, we would still be living in Eden, rent-free with all-you-can-eat buffets and infinitely better daytime TV programming.
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
Grief is a healthy emotion, and it's healthy to embrace it. By accepting loss, we clarify our values and the meaning of our lives.
Dean Koontz
I see dead people. But, then by God, I do something about it!
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
Not all popular novelists are good, but all good novelists are, sooner or later, popular.
Dean Koontz
Life without meaning cannot be borne. We find a mission to which we're sworn -or answer the call of Death's dark horn. Without a gleaning of purpose in life, we have no vision, we live in strife, -or let blood fall on a suicide knife.
Dean Koontz
