 A house cannot be made habitable in a day; and, after all, how few days go to make up a century.

 Despair has its own calms.

 He may not enter anywhere at the first, unless there be some one of the household who bid him to come, though afterwards he can come as he please.

 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.

 I am Dracula, and I bid you welcome . . .

 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 have learned not to think little of any one's belief, no matter how strange it may be. I have tried to keep an open mind, and it is not the ordinary things of life that could close it, but the strange things, the extraordinary things, the things that make one doubt if they be mad or sane.

 I sometimes think we must all be mad and that we shall wake to sanity in strait-waistcoats.

 It is the eve of St. George's Day. Do you not know that tonight, when the clock strikes midnight, all the evil things in the world will have full sway?

 No man knows till he has suffered from the night how sweet and dear to his heart and eye the morning can be.

 Oh, friend John, it is a strange world, a sad world, a world full of miseries, and woes, and troubles. And yet when King Laugh come, he make them all dance to the tune he play.

 Then a dog began to howl somewhere in a farmhouse far down the road, a long, agonized wailing, as if from fear. The sound was taken up by another dog, and then another and another, till, borne on the wind which now sighed softly through the Pass, a wild howling began, which seemed to come from all over the country, as far as the imagination could grasp it through the gloom of the night.

 Then a dog began to howl somewhere in a farming house far down the road - a long, agonized wailing,
as if from fear... Then, far off in the distance, from the mountains on each side of us began a louder
and a sharper howling - that of wolves - which affected both horses and myself in the same way -
for I was minded to jump from the caleche and run, whilst they reared again and plunged madly, so that
the driver had to use all his great strength to keep them from bolting.

 There are mysteries which men can only guess at, which age by age they may solve only in part.

 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.
