The only beautiful thing in the world whose beauty lasts for ever is a pure, fair soul.
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 suppose that we women are such cowards that we think a man will save us from fears, and we marry him.
Bram Stoker
Image
She has man's brain--a brain that a man should have were he much gifted--and woman's heart. The good God fashioned her for a purpose, believe me when He made that so good combination.
Bram Stoker
Image
This man belongs to me, I want him!
Bram Stoker
Image
Truly there is no such thing as finality.
Bram Stoker
Image
These infinitesimal distinctions between man and man are too paltry for an Omnipotent Being. How these madmen give themselves away! The real God taketh heed lest a sparrow fall. But the God created from human vanity sees no difference between an eagle and a sparrow.
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.
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
The blood is life... and it shall be mine!

Safety and the assurance of safety are things of the past.
Bram Stoker
Image
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
Image
We learn of great things by little experiences.
Bram Stoker
Image
I have always thought that a wild animal never looks so well as when some obstacle of pronounced durability is between us. A personal experience has intensified rather than diminished that idea.
Bram Stoker
Image
Chasing an errant swarm of bees is nothing to following a naked lunatic when the fit of escaping is upon him!
Bram Stoker
Image
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
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
She was young and very beautiful, but pale, like the grey pallor of death.
