Loneliness will sit over our roofs with brooding wings.
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
Image
Because if a woman's heart was free a man might have hope.
Bram Stoker

I suppose that we women are such cowards that we think a man will save us from fears, and we marry him.
Bram Stoker

We learn of great things by little experiences.
Bram Stoker

Though sympathy alone can't alter facts, it can help to make them more bearable.
Bram Stoker

How good and thoughtful he is the world seems full of good men--even if there are monsters in it.
Bram Stoker
Image
Our toil must be in silence, and our efforts all in secret for this enlightened age, when men believe not even what they see, the doubting of wise men would be his greatest strength.
