Golden retrievers are not bred to be guard dogs, and considering the size of their hearts and their irrepressible joy in life, they are less likely to bite than to bark, less likely to bark than to lick a hand in greeting. In spite of their size, they think they are lap dogs, and in spite of being dogs, they think they are also human, and nearly every human they meet is judged to have the potential to be a boon companion who might, at many moment, cry, "Let's go!" and lead them on a great adventure.
Dean KoontzTruth is always stranger than fiction. We craft fiction to match our sense of how things ought to be, but truth cannot be crafted. Truth is, and truth has a way of astonishing us to our knees. Reminding us, that the universe does not exist to fulfill our expectations. Because we are imperfect beings who are self-blinded to the truth of the worldโs stunning complexity, we shave reality to paper thin theories and ideologies that we can easily grasp โ and we call them truths. But the truth of a sea in all itโs immensity cannot be embodied in one tidewashed pebble.
Dean KoontzI don't write a quick draft and then revise; instead, I work slowly page by page, revising and polishing.
