Dean Koontz Quotes

Night has patterns that can be read less by the living than by the dead Picture Quote #1

Funny, how one good cookie could calm the mind and even elevate a troubled soul Picture Quote #1

She’d been acutely aware that terror, betrayal, and cruelty had a human face, but she had not sufficiently appreciated that courage, kindness, and love had a human face as well Picture Quote #1

And the funny thing was if you made the best of it, if you smiled through every storm, the bad things were never as terrible as you expected them to be, and the good things were better than anything you could have wished for yourself Picture Quote #1

Time doesn’t, as advertised, heal all wounds. Although the wrenching immediacy of grief eventually passed, the settled sorrow that replaced it might in its own way be even more intense Picture Quote #1

Once you have had a wonderful dog, a life without one, is a life diminished Picture Quote #1

We may lack riches, but the greatest fortune is what lies in our hearts Picture Quote #1

Thanks to the circus between my ears, I can seize upon the smallest disquieting observation and from it extrapolate a terror of cataclysmic proportions Picture Quote #1

Maybe I’m needy, neurotic, paranoid. Under the circumstances, of course, if I weren’t needy, neurotic, and paranoid, I’d obviously be psychotic Picture Quote #1

She says what holds their marriage together is that she feels too damn sorry for him to ask for a divorce Picture Quote #1

She might have been born this way, without an empathy gene and other essentials. In that case, she would interpret any kindness as weakness. Among predatory beasts, any display of weakness is an invitation to attack Picture Quote #1

Few human beings give of themselves to another as a dog gives of itself Picture Quote #1

Behind every closed door might wait a thief of minds and a collector of souls Picture Quote #1

Change isn’t easy... changing the way you live means changing what you believe about life. That’s hard... When we make our own misery, we sometimes cling to it even when we want so bad to change because the misery is something we know. The misery is comfortable Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

It’s so damn hard to bloom… to change. Even when you want to change, want it more than anything in the world, it’s hard. Desire to change isn’t enough. Or desperation. Couldn’t be done without… love Picture Quote #1

He’s a hollow man. He believes in anything. Hollow men are vulnerable to anyone who offers them something that might fill the void and make them feel less empty Picture Quote #1

Like all of us in this storm between birth and death, I can wreak no great changes on the world, only small changes for the better, I hope, in the lives of those I love Picture Quote #1

Anger is a violent emotion, vindictive, and as dangerous to he who is driven by it as to anyone on whom it is turned Picture Quote #1

When life hands us a beutiful bouquet of flowers we stare at it in cautious expectation of a bee Picture Quote #1

Petting, scratching, and cuddling a dog could be as soothing to the mind and heart as deep meditation and almost as good for the soul as prayer Picture Quote #1

Humanity is a parade of fools, and I am at the front of it, twirling a baton Picture Quote #1

Please, don’t torture me with cliches. If you’re going to try to intimidate me, have the courtesy to go away for a while, acquire a better education, improve your vocabulary, and come back with some fresh metaphors Picture Quote #1

If you write with passion in your own style, you will make a place for yourself Picture Quote #1

In a book, even the real bastards can’t hurt you. And you can never loose a friend you make in a book. When you get to a sad part, no one’s there to see you cry. Or wonder why you don’t cry when you should Picture Quote #1

A fine line separates the weary recluse from the fearful hermit. Finer still is the line between hermit and bitter misanthrope Picture Quote #1

A scar is not always a flaw. Sometimes a scar may be redemption inscribed in the flesh, a memorial to something endured, to something lost Picture Quote #1

In a world that daily disconnects further from truth, more and more people accept the virtual in place of the real, and all things virtual are also malleable Picture Quote #1
