Dean Koontz
Loss is the hardest thing, I said. But it's also the teacher that's the most difficult to ignore.

Dean Koontz
We live in God's amusement park.
Dean Koontz
Sometimes it seemed that the human heart, this side of Eden, feared life more than death, light more than darkness, freedom more than surrender.
Dean Koontz
No one can tell you what your heart should feel.
Dean Koontz
That's all that matters, really: that we can make each other feel better.
Dean Koontz
When we don't allow ourselves to hope, we don't allow ourselves to have purpose. Without purpose, without meaning, life is dark. We've no light within, and we're just living to die.
Dean Koontz
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
Love and sausage are alike. Can never have enough of either.
Dean Koontz
