More quotes by Dean Koontz
We are coming out of a century that was taught that one way of looking at the world, that one form of behavior, is as valid as another. The idea of true evil has been blown away.
Dean Koontz
Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one, is a life diminished.
Dean Koontz
I am the One, and I see all. But the blind man in Apartment 1-A is blind in many ways, as are all human beings, even those with functioning eyes. They are blind to their folly, to their ignorance, to their history, to the future that they will make for themselves. A future born of self-loathing.
Dean Koontz
When a knot gets to tight, you can always cut the rope
Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz
The word impossible contains the word possible' What's that-- some Zen thing?' I think Star Trek. Mr. Spock.
Dean Koontz
Always, beneath every apparent chaos, order waits to be revealed.
Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz
Love and sausage are alike. Can never have enough of either.
Dean Koontz
When we hope, we usually hope for the wrong thing.
Dean Koontz
People couldn't bear to go on living if they faced every cold truth about themselves.
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
My life would be constrained by the horror and fierce rage that my appearance inspired, but I would know peace as well as fear, tenderness as well as brutality, and even love in a time of cruelty.
Dean Koontz
