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?

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 only beautiful thing in the world whose beauty lasts for ever is a pure, fair soul.
Bram Stoker

Despair has its own calms.
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
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Safety and the assurance of safety are things of the past.
Bram Stoker
Image
I sometimes think we must be all mad and that we shall wake to sanity in strait-waistcoats.
Bram Stoker

This man belongs to me, I want him!
Bram Stoker

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.
