"I really believe that everyone has a talent, ability, or skill that he can mine to support himself and to succeed in life."― Dean Koontz Topic(s): LifeMore From Dean Koontz"I like to deal with EVERY aspect of our condition, and that means terror and humor in equal mix. Some books have more room for humor than others.""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.""I have to admit that when I watch a movie in which there is no moral context for the violence – I find that offensive. I think that’s potentially damaging to society."More In Life"Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you."― Carl Sandburg"There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats."― Albert Schweitzer"Life appears to me too short to be spent in nursing animosity, or registering wrongs."― Charlotte Bronte
