More quotes by Dean Koontz
Evil itself may be relentless. I will grant you that, but love is relentless too. Friendship is a relentless force. Family is a relentless force. Faith is relentless force. The human spirit is relentless, and the human heart outlasts - and can defeat - even the most relentless force of all, which is time.
Dean Koontz
When life hands us a beutiful bouquet of flowers we stare at it in cautious expectation of a bee.
Dean Koontz
Loss is the hardest thing, I said. But it's also the teacher that's the most difficult to ignore.
Dean Koontz
The only thing I know for sure is how much I do not know.
Dean Koontz
I have more self-doubt than any writer I've ever known.... The positive aspect of self-doubt - if you can channel it into useful activity instead of being paralyzed by it - is that by the time you reach the end of a novel, you know precisely why you made every decision in the narrative, the multiple purposes of every metaphor and image.
Dean Koontz
Humanity was drawn to turmoil and self-destruction as inevitably as the earth was drawn to complete its annual revolution of the sun.
Dean Koontz
One man's idea of perfect order is another man's chaos.
Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz
There's still a fascination with somebody who can write at book length, no matter what the book is.
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
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
I don't write a quick draft and then revise instead, I work slowly page by page, revising and polishing.
Dean Koontz
She was fascinated with words. To her, words were things of beauty, each like a magical powder or potion that could be combined with other words to create powerful spells.
Dean Koontz
What most people find important, you do not. This is Wisdom. To what you believe is important, you are ready to give your mind, heart, and soul. This is Grace.
Dean Koontz
Somebody asked me about the current choice we're being given in the presidential election. I said, Well, it's like two of the scariest movies I can imagine.
Dean Koontz
The rain wasn't the usual glittering silver, but dark and dirty, as if nature were a scrubwoman wringing out a filthy mop.
Dean Koontz
I do give books as gifts sometimes, when people would rather have one than a new Ferrari.
Dean Koontz
I have to admit that when I watch a movie in which there is no moral context for the violence - I find that offensive. I think that's potentially damaging to society.
Dean Koontz
In misfortune lies the seed of future triumph.
Dean Koontz
What sucks the worst is . . . this world was a gift to us, and we broke it, and part of the deal is that if we want things right, we have to fix it ourselves. But we can't. We try, but we can't.
Dean Koontz
