More quotes by Bram Stoker
No man knows where the Castle of King Death is. All men and women, boys and girls, and even little wee children should so live that when they have to enter the Castle and see the grim King, they may not fear to behold his face.
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
It is only when a man feels himself face to face with such horrors that he can understand their true import.
Bram Stoker
Though sympathy alone can't alter facts, it can help to make them more bearable.
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
For me, I say no, but then I am old, and life, with his sunshine, his fair places, his song of birds, his music and his love, lie far behind. You others are young. Some have seen sorrow, but there are fair days yet in store. What say you?
Bram Stoker
Despair has its own calms.
Bram Stoker
I'm a hard nut to crack, and I take it standing up.
Bram Stoker
There was a deliberate voluptuousness that was both thrilling and repulsive. And as she arched her neck she actually licked her lips like an animal till I could see in the moonlight the moisture Then lapped the white, sharp teeth. Lower and lower went her head. I closed my eyes in a languorous ecstasy and waited.
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
This man belongs to me, I want him!
Bram Stoker
She was young and very beautiful, but pale, like the grey pallor of death.
Bram Stoker
Take me away from all this Death.
Bram Stoker
I am all in a sea of wonders. I doubt I fear I think strange things, which I dare not confess to my own soul. God keep me, if only for the sake of those dear to me!
Bram Stoker
Chasing an errant swarm of bees is nothing to following a naked lunatic when the fit of escaping is upon him!
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
I sometimes think we must be all mad and that we shall wake to sanity in strait-waistcoats.
Bram Stoker
I have a sort of empty feeling nothing in the world seems of sufficient importance to be worth the doing.
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
Because if a woman's heart was free a man might have hope.
