More quotes by Bram Stoker

Image
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
Image
I sometimes think we must be all mad and that we shall wake to sanity in strait-waistcoats.
Bram Stoker
Image
Despair has its own calms.
Bram Stoker
Image
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
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?
Bram Stoker
Image
The blood is the life!
Bram Stoker
Image
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
Image
A brave man's hand can speak for itself, it does not even need a woman's love to hear its music.
Bram Stoker
Image

Bram Stoker
Image
We are all drifting reefwards now, and faith is our only anchor.
Bram Stoker
Image
There is a reason why all things are as they are.
Bram Stoker
Image
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
Image
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
Image
And so we remained till the red of the dawn began to fall through the snow gloom. I was desolate and afraid, and full of woe and terror. But when that beautiful sun began to climb the horizon life was to me again.
Bram Stoker
Image
This man belongs to me, I want him!
Bram Stoker
Image
I'm a hard nut to crack, and I take it standing up.
Bram Stoker
Image
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
Image
Nature in one of her beneficent moods has ordained that even death has some antidote to its own terrors.
Bram Stoker
Image
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
Image
She was young and very beautiful, but pale, like the grey pallor of death.
