Books showed me that there were other ways to live a life.

There's never any humongous next draft. I know a writer who every time he finished a novel - you would know his name very well - but his editor would come and live with him for a month. And they would go through the manuscript together.

We're out of cocktail olives, it's a tragedy of historic proportions, but we're coping because we're Americans.

Image
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.

Loyal companions are an unequaled grace, stanching fear before it bleeds you numb, a reliable antidote for creeping despair.
Dean Koontz
Image
The more you expect from life, the more your expectations will be fulfilled. By laughing, you do not use up your laughter, but increase your store of it. The more you love, the more you will be loved. The more you give, the more you will receive. Life proves that truth every hour, every day. And life continues to surprise.
Dean Koontz
Image
In self-defense and in defense of the innocent, cowardice is the only sin.
Dean Koontz
Image
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.

Image
Not all popular novelists are good, but all good novelists are, sooner or later, popular.
Dean Koontz
Image
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
Image
Thanks to the circus between my ears, I can seize upon the smallest disquieting observation and from it extrapolate a terror of cataclysmic proportions.

Image
There are no explanations for human evil. Only excuses.

I have been reading Stephen King since CARRIE and hope to read him for many years to come.
