More quotes by Dean Koontz
Loyal companions are an unequaled grace, stanching fear before it bleeds you numb, a reliable antidote for creeping despair.
Dean Koontz
Loneliness comes in two basic varieties. When it results from a desire for solitude, loneliness is a door we close against the world. When the world instead rejects us, loneliness is an open door, unused.
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
They said there was no rest for the wicked. In fact, there was rest neither for the virtuous nor the wicked, nor for guys like Billy, who were uncommitted regarding the whole idea of virtue versus wickedness and who were just trying to do their jobs.
Dean Koontz
Best thing that can happen to a man is a good woman.
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
Home is the first refuge from - and last defense against - the disappointments and the terrors of life.
Dean Koontz
In spite of where we were, how we had gotten here and why we had come, I felt that at this moment of our lives, this place was exactly where we belonged. We were not drifting but rising, rising toward something right and of significance.
Dean Koontz
The opportunity to love a dog and to treat it with kindness is an opportunity for a lost and selfish heart to be redeemed. They are powerless and innocent, and it is how we treat the humblest among us that surely determines the fate of our souls
Dean Koontz
The desire to write well can never be fulfilled without hard work.
Dean Koontz
Pain is a gift. Humanity, without pain, would know neither fear nor pity. Without fear, there could be no humility, and every man would be a monster. The recognition of pain and fear in others give rise in us to pity, and in our pity is our humanity, our redemption.
Dean Koontz
Evil men often easy to mislead, because they have spent so long deceiving that they no longer recognise the truth and mistake deseption for it.
Dean Koontz
The brain acknowledged the approach of death while the heart stubbornly insisted upon immortality.
Dean Koontz
Duty doesn't need to call it only needs to whisper. And if you heed the call, no matter what happens, you have no need for regret. Odd Thomas
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
I like to deal with EVERY aspect of our condition, and that means terror and humor in equal mix. Some books have more room for humor than others.
Dean Koontz
Recognizing the structure of your psychology doesn't mean that you can easily rebuild it.
Dean Koontz
Death came, Death went, but Commerce flowed Eternal.
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
Hunches [are] just messages from the subconscious, which [is] thinking furiously all the time and processing information we have not consciously noted.
Dean Koontz
