In the real world as in dreams nothing is quite what it seems. -The Book of Counted Sorrows

Not all popular novelists are...

Not all popular novelists are good, but all good novelists are, sooner or later, popular.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

If she possessed any memory w...

If she possessed any memory whatsoever of the days when she'd been whole, her shattered recollections were scattered across the darkscape of her mind in fragments so minuscule that she could no more easily piece them together than she could gather from the beach all the tiny chips of broken seashells, worn to polished flakes by ages of relentless tides, and reassemble them into their original architectures.

Shakespeare again. Once you l...

Shakespeare again. Once you let him into your head, he takes up tenancy and will not leave.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

It was one of those rare time...

It was one of those rare times when remembering the dead was more inmportant than tending to the needs of the living.

Where there's cake, there's hope. And there's always cake.

A fine line separates the wea...

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

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

There are days when it seems ...

There are days when it seems to me that in literature the most convincing depiction of the world in which we live is to be found in the phantasmagorical kingdom through which Lewis Carroll took Alice on a tour.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

There’s just something unsett...

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.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

But the more people we love a...

But the more people we love and the more deeply we love them, the more vulnerable we are to loss and grief and loneliness.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

Faced with the challenge of a...

Faced with the challenge of an endless universe, Man will be forced to mature further, just as the Neanderthal-faced with an entire planet-had no choice but to grow away from the tradition of savagery.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

The best part of a Mr. Goodba...

The best part of a Mr. Goodbar is not the wrapper, is it? No, and the best part of a Coke is not the can. On those nights when you lie awake, either man or boy, wondering about yourself, peeling away one layer of oddness after another, you should remember and always be grateful that the woefully imperfect person that you are, with all your contradictions and unworthy desires, is not the best of you, any more than the wrapper is the best part of a Mr. Goodbar. -Odd Thomas - Odd Apocalypse by Dean Koonts pgs. 354-355 chapter 53

I would not cry. I do not cry. How bitter do you risk becoming by swallowing too many tears?

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

Being alone can be good. It's...

Being alone can be good. It's easy to find peace alone. But sometimes, being alone is a king of death.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

Stay low, stay quiet, keep it...

Stay low, stay quiet, keep it simple, don't expect too much, enjoy what you have.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

Is rule of thumb in writing game: if story requires many long descriptions of smells so vile that will give reader nausea, is not likely to find publisher.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

At the core of every ordered ...

At the core of every ordered system, whether a family or a factory, is chaos. But in the whirl of every chaos lies a strange order, waiting to be found.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

Or maybe they were just doing...

Or maybe they were just doing it for fun. A lark. Their religion is tolerant of extreme forms of recreation. Boys will be boys, after all, and sociopathic boys will be sociopathic.

Dean Koontz 566 quotes

Out of sight above the house,...

Out of sight above the house, the mirror moon reflected the sun of a day not yet dawned, shining the pale light of tomorrow on the yard and on the paper birches.
