More quotes by Dean Koontz
No one can grant you happiness. Happiness is a choice we all have the power to make.
Dean Koontz
the worst happens when you least expect it
Dean Koontz
We are not strangers to ourselves, we only try to be.
Dean Koontz
I'll sit in the park and feed the pigeons for a while.' We don't have pigeons.' Then I'll feed the pterodactyls.
Dean Koontz
I never have lunch because it makes me foggy-headed.
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
Even in the darkest moments, light exists if you have the faith to see it. Fear is a poison produced by the mind, and courage is the antidote stored always in the soul. In misfortune lies the seed of future triumph.
Dean Koontz
Every human being has appetites difficult to control but far fewer have humility, gentleness, and an awareness of their weaknesses.
Dean Koontz
I don't mean to imply that I'm afraid of Death. I'm just not ready to go out on a date with him.
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
We live in God's amusement park.
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
Atlas isn't carrying the world on his shoulders, no giant muscular hulk with a sense of responsibility the world is balanced on a pyramid of clowns, and they are always tooting horns and wobbling and goosing each other.
Dean Koontz
Reality isn't what it used to be.
Dean Koontz
If wishes were filet mignon, we'd always eat well at dinner
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
When it came to formal classes, I was a slacker. But I've always been a diligent autodidact and can teach myself virtually any subject if I have a serious interest in it.
Dean Koontz
Writing isn't a source of pain. It's psychic chemotherapy. It reduces your psychological tumors and relieves your pain.
Dean Koontz
The brain acknowledged the approach of death while the heart stubbornly insisted upon immortality.
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.
