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

There are such beings as vampires, some of us have evidence that they exist. Even had we not the proof of our own unhappy experience, the teachings and the records of the past give proof enough for sane peoples.
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
Chasing an errant swarm of bees is nothing to following a naked lunatic when the fit of escaping is upon him!
Bram Stoker
Image
I will not let you go into the unknown alone.
Bram Stoker
Image
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
Image
All men are mad in some way or the other, and inasmuch as you deal discreetly with your madmen, so deal with God's madmen too, the rest of the world.
Bram Stoker

The Stars are a long way off, and their words get somewhat dulled in the message.
Bram Stoker
Image
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.

We are all drifting reefwards now, and faith is our only anchor.
Bram Stoker
Image
How good and thoughtful he is the world seems full of good men--even if there are monsters in it.
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.

I want you to believe...to believe in things that you cannot.
