More quotes by Bram Stoker
He may not enter anywhere at the first, unless there be some one of the household who bid him to come, though afterwards he can come as he please.
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
I'm a hard nut to crack, and I take it standing up.
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
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
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
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
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
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
Because if a woman's heart was free a man might have hope.
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
Faith ... that faculty which enables us to believe things which we know to be untrue.
Bram Stoker
Though sympathy alone can't alter facts, it can help to make them more bearable.
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
I sometimes think we must be all mad and that we shall wake to sanity in strait-waistcoats.
Bram Stoker
Yes, there is some one I love, though he has not told me yet that he even loves me.
Bram Stoker
The Stars are a long way off, and their words get somewhat dulled in the message.
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
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
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?
