Image
Loyal companions are an unequaled grace, stanching fear before it bleeds you numb, a reliable antidote for creeping despair.
Dean Koontz
Image
All human lives are so profoundly and intricately entwined-those dead, those living, those generations yet to come-that the fate of all is the fate of each, and the hope of humanity rests in every heart and in every pair of hands.
Dean Koontz
Image
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
Image
Night has patterns that can be read less by the living than by the dead.

There’s just something unsettling about studying your reflection. It’s not a matter of being dissatisfied with your face or of being embarrassed by your vanity. Maybe it’s that when you gaze into your own eyes, you don’t see what you wish to see—or glimpse something that you wish weren’t there.

I never have lunch because it makes me foggy-headed.

Image
Only time conquers time and its burdens.
Dean Koontz
Image
All I asked was that I be spared surprises, although, in this world of six billion souls, all acting with free will and too many with audacity, surprises are inevitable, too few of them are the kind that make you smile and that lift your heart.

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

Death came, Death went, but Commerce flowed Eternal.

These days, people spent too much time striving to understand their feelings - and then ended up with none that were genuine.
Dean Koontz
Image
Anger is a violent emotion, vindictive, and as dangerous to he who is driven by it as to anyone on whom it is turned.

Image
Shakespeare again. Once you let him into your head, he takes up tenancy and will not leave.
Dean Koontz
Image
Some people think only intellect counts: knowing how to solve problems, knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it. But the functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion, and empathy.

I see dead people. But, then by God, I do something about it!
