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.

More quotes by 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
A brave man's hand can speak for itself, it does not even need a woman's love to hear its music.
Bram Stoker
Nature in one of her beneficent moods has ordained that even death has some antidote to its own terrors.
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
It is only when a man feels himself face to face with such horrors that he can understand their true import.
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
It is ever thus that the things which we do wrong - although they may seem little at the time, and though from the hardness of our hearts we pass them lightly by - come back to us with bitterness.
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
Faith ... that faculty which enables us to believe things which we know to be untrue.
Bram Stoker
She was young and very beautiful, but pale, like the grey pallor of death.
Bram Stoker
The Dead travel fast.
Bram Stoker
Within, stood a tall old man, clean shaven save for a long white moustache, and clad in black from head to foot, without a single speck of colour about him anywhere.
Bram Stoker
We learn of great things by little experiences.
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
Chasing an errant swarm of bees is nothing to following a naked lunatic when the fit of escaping is upon him!
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
I have a sort of empty feeling nothing in the world seems of sufficient importance to be worth the doing.
Bram Stoker
I am Dracula, and I bid you welcome . . .
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
