There are such beings as vampires, some of us have evidence that they exist. Even had we not the proof of our own unhappy experience, the teachings and the records of the past give proof enough for sane peoples.

More quotes by Bram Stoker
I do not, as you know, take sufficient interest in dress to be able to describe the new fashions. Dress is a bore.
Bram Stoker
Safety and the assurance of safety are things of the past.
Bram Stoker
I want you to believe...to believe in things that you cannot.
Bram Stoker
But a stranger in a strange land, he is no one. Men know him not, and to know not is to care not for.
Bram Stoker
No man knows till he has suffered from the night how sweet and dear to his heart and eye the morning can be.
Bram Stoker
She was young and very beautiful, but pale, like the grey pallor of death.
Bram Stoker
I have always thought that a wild animal never looks so well as when some obstacle of pronounced durability is between us. A personal experience has intensified rather than diminished that idea.
Bram Stoker
We are in Transylvania, and Transylvania is not England. Our ways are not your ways, and there shall be to you many strange things. Nay, from what you have told me of your experiences already, you know something of what strange things there may be.
Bram Stoker
Because if a woman's heart was free a man might have hope.
Bram Stoker
Oh, the terrible struggle that I have had against sleep so often of late the pain of the sleeplessness, or the pain of the fear of sleep, and with such unknown horror as it has for me! How blessed are some people, whose lives have no fears, no dreads to whom sleep is a blessing that comes nightly, and brings nothing but sweet dreams.
Bram Stoker
Oh, why must a man like that be made unhappy when there are lots of girls about who would worship the very ground he trod on?
Bram Stoker
She has man's brain--a brain that a man should have were he much gifted--and woman's heart. The good God fashioned her for a purpose, believe me when He made that so good combination.
Bram Stoker
But hush! No telling to others that make so inquisitive questions. We must obey, and silence is a part of obedience, and obedience is to bring you strong and well into loving arms that wait for you.
Bram Stoker
She is one of God's women fashioned by His own hand to show us men and other women that there is a heaven where we can enter, and that its light can be here on earth.
Bram Stoker
I am longing to be with you, and by the sea, where we can talk together freely and build our castles in the air.
Bram Stoker
Far, far away, there is a beautiful Country which no human eye has ever seen in waking hours. Under the Sunset it lies, where the distant horizon bounds the day, and where the clouds, splendid with light and colour, give a promise of the glory and beauty which encompass it. Sometimes it is given to us to see it in dreams.
Bram Stoker
Suddenly, I became conscious of the fact that the driver was in the act of pulling up the horses in the courtyard of a vast ruined castle, from whose tall black windows came no ray of light, and whose broken battlements showed a jagged line against the sky.
Bram Stoker
This man belongs to me, I want him!
Bram Stoker
Enter freely and of your own free will!
Bram Stoker
Never did tombs look so ghastly white. Never did cypress, or yew, or juniper so seem the embodiment of funeral gloom. Never did tree or grass wave or rustle so ominously. Never did bough creak so mysteriously, and never did the far-away howling of dogs send such a woeful presage through the night.
Bram Stoker
