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?

More quotes by Bram Stoker
Though sympathy alone can't alter facts, it can help to make them more bearable.
Bram Stoker
I stood beside Van Helsing, and said- Ah, well, poor girl, there is peace for her at last. It is the end! He turned to me, and said with grave solemnity:- Not so alas! not so. It is only the beginning!
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
Faith ... that faculty which enables us to believe things which we know to be untrue.
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
Doctor, you don't know what it is to doubt everything, even yourself. No, you don't you couldn't with eyebrows like yours.
Bram Stoker
I am Dracula, and I bid you welcome . . .
Bram Stoker
Because if a woman's heart was free a man might have hope.
Bram Stoker
And then away for home! Away to the quickest and nearest train! Away from this cursed land, where the devil and his children stil walk with earthly feet!
Bram Stoker
These infinitesimal distinctions between man and man are too paltry for an Omnipotent Being. How these madmen give themselves away! The real God taketh heed lest a sparrow fall. But the God created from human vanity sees no difference between an eagle and a sparrow.
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
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
If a man's esteem and gratitude are ever worth the winning, you have won mine today. If ever the future should bring to you a time when you need a man's help, believe me, you will not call in vain. God grant that no such time may ever come to you to break the sunshine of your life but if it should ever come, promise me that you will let me know.
Bram Stoker
The blood is life... and it shall be mine!
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
She was young and very beautiful, but pale, like the grey pallor of death.
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
Yes, there is some one I love, though he has not told me yet that he even loves me.
Bram Stoker
A brave man's hand can speak for itself, it does not even need a woman's love to hear its music.
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
