More quotes by Dean Koontz
The hands of every clock are shears, trimming us away scrap by scrap, and every time piece with a digital readout blinks us towards implosion.
Dean Koontz
In this world only the paranoid survive.
Dean Koontz
What does worry accomplish except to breed more worry?
Dean Koontz
This world, which has the potential to be Eden, is instead the hell before Hell. In our arrogance, we have made it so.
Dean Koontz
Sometimes there is no darker place than our thoughts, the moonless midnight of the mind.
Dean Koontz
Sometimes many publishers prefer that you write the same book every time, but I have a low boredom threshold so that isn't going to happen.
Dean Koontz
the worst happens when you least expect it
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
Every eye sees its own special vision every ear hears a most different song. In each man's troubled heart, an incision would reveal a unique, shameful wrong.
Dean Koontz
The word impossible contains the word possible' What's that-- some Zen thing?' I think Star Trek. Mr. Spock.
Dean Koontz
One man's idea of perfect order is another man's chaos.
Dean Koontz
In misfortune lies the seed of future triumph.
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
I enjoy the hell out of writing but don't like what follows: promotion and publicity, which I always strive to keep to a minimum, sometimes to my publisher's dismay.
Dean Koontz
Your mind always does worse things than people can show in a movie.
Dean Koontz
There’s just something unsettling about studying your reflection. It’s not a matter of being dissatisfied with your face or of being embarrassed by your vanity. Maybe it’s that when you gaze into your own eyes, you don’t see what you wish to see—or glimpse something that you wish weren’t there.
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
Each reader needs to bring his or her own mind and heart to the text.
Dean Koontz
If I waited until I felt creative, I would never have had a career. I long ago learned that a day that starts out badly, when nothing comes out on the page or comes out wrong, can suddenly turn into a good day a few hours later, when suddenly everything starts to click. The brain can be cajoled into being creative.
Dean Koontz
I believe in the possibility of miracles but, more to the point, I believe in our need for them.
