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

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.

Truly there is no such thing as finality.
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
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
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
Faith ... that faculty which enables us to believe things which we know to be untrue.
Bram Stoker
Image
Though sympathy alone can't alter facts, it can help to make them more bearable.
Bram Stoker
Image
We are in Transylvania, and Transylvania is not England. Our ways are not your ways, and there shall be to you many strange things. Nay, from what you have told me of your experiences already, you know something of what strange things there may be.

Chasing an errant swarm of bees is nothing to following a naked lunatic when the fit of escaping is upon him!
