More quotes by Dean Koontz
All but universally, human architecture values front elevations over back entrances, public spaces over private. Danny Jessup says that this aspect of architecture is also a reflection of human nature, that most people care more about their appearance than they do about their souls.
Dean Koontz
Literary fiction, as a strict genre, is all but dead. Meanwhile, most genres flourish.
Dean Koontz
I believe in the possibility of miracles but, more to the point, I believe in our need for them.
Dean Koontz
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.
Dean Koontz
No one can grant you happiness. Happiness is a choice we all have the power to make.
Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz

Dean Koontz
We live in God's amusement park.
Dean Koontz
Despair is good. Despair can be the nadir of one life and the starting point of an ascent into another, better one.
Dean Koontz
From time to time, I do consider that I might be mad. Like any self-respecting lunatic, however, I am always quick to dismiss any doubts about my sanity.
Dean Koontz
There's evil in the world, all right. Being aware of it makes you a realist, not a paranoid.
Dean Koontz
In this world only the paranoid survive.
Dean Koontz
Not funny ha ha, funny weird.
Dean Koontz
Although the constant shadow of certain death looms over everyday, the pleasures and joys of life can be so fine and affecting that the heart is nearly stilled in astonishment.
Dean Koontz
In the end, it's all about perseverance.
Dean Koontz
The process, not the final achievement, is what it's all about.
Dean Koontz
Every expression of desired friendship has potential bite. Every smile reveals the teeth.
Dean Koontz
All I ask of Fate is that the people she hurls into my life, whether they are evil or good, or morally bipolar, should be amusing to one degree or another.... The problem is finding smile-inducing evil people, because the evil are the most humorless, though in the movies they frequently get some of the best lines.
Dean Koontz
Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself.
