Dean Koontz
Always, beneath every apparent chaos, order waits to be revealed.

Dean Koontz
I was looking forward to having a halo. It would make such a convenient reading lamp.
Dean Koontz
Humanity is a parade of fools, and I am at the front of it, twirling a baton.
Dean Koontz
What will happen will happen. There is time for miracles until there is no more time, but time has no end.
Dean Koontz
There are no explanations for human evil. Only excuses.
Dean Koontz
My wife is my first audience. She's a tough lady, so I can't say that I ever scare her. Except, of course, when she sees me the way I look before breakfast.
Dean Koontz
You won't find the truth of life in morbidity, only in hope.
Dean Koontz
The destruction that barbarians leave behind has a grim fascination, doesn't it? We're reminded how thin is the veneer of civilization.
Dean Koontz
Nothing is worse than being alone on the evening of the day when one's cow has exploded.
Dean Koontz
I believe in the possibility of miracles but, more to the point, I believe in our need for them.
