More quotes by Dean Koontz
The less depth a belief system has, the greater the fervency with which its adherents embrace it. The most vociferous, the most fanatical are those whose cobbled faith is founded on the shakiest grounds.
Dean Koontz
Loss is the hardest thing, I said. But it's also the teacher that's the most difficult to ignore.
Dean Koontz
That was interesting, riding in the trunk, Milo said, but I wouldn't want to do it again.
Dean Koontz
Evil men often easy to mislead, because they have spent so long deceiving that they no longer recognise the truth and mistake deseption for it.
Dean Koontz
How passionately we love everything that cannot last: the dazzling crystallory of winter, the spring in bloom, the fragile flight of butterflies, crimson sunsets, a kiss, and life.
Dean Koontz
... one of those librarians who rules the stacks with an intimidating scowl, whispers quiet sharply enough to lacerate the tender inner tissues of the ear, and will pursue an overdue-book fine with the ferocity of a rabid ferret.
Dean Koontz
Reality isn't what it used to be.
Dean Koontz
Every human being has appetites difficult to control but far fewer have humility, gentleness, and an awareness of their weaknesses.
Dean Koontz
Creating a family in this turbulent world is an act of faith, a wager that against all odds there will be a future, that love can last, that the heart can triumph against all adversities and even against the grinding wheel of time.
Dean Koontz
We are not, however, a species that can choose the baggage with which we must travel. In spite of our best intentions, we always find that we have brought along a suitcase or two of darkness and despair.
Dean Koontz
When a knot gets to tight, you can always cut the rope
Dean Koontz
In my books, I never portray violence as a reasonable solution to a problem. If the lead characters in the story are driven to it, it's at the extreme end of their experience.
Dean Koontz
Some argued that the youth of today were poorly educated and insufficiently industrious, but one of them had sought to validate his generation by spending considerable time and effort chiseling an obscene word in the concrete picnic table, and he had spelled it correctly.
Dean Koontz
Every expression of desired friendship has potential bite. Every smile reveals the teeth.
Dean Koontz
I never discuss a novel while I'm writing it, for fear that talking about it will diminish my desire to write it.
Dean Koontz
Those who wish to punish the current and future generations for the inequities of a generation long gone, and who equate justice with revenge, are the most dangerous people in the world.
Dean Koontz
I do give books as gifts sometimes, when people would rather have one than a new Ferrari.
Dean Koontz
I never have lunch because it makes me foggy-headed.
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
I admit to having an imagination feverish enough to melt good judgment.
