“Without death life is meaningless. It is a story that can never be told. A song that could never be sung. For how would one finish it?”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

“There are but two types of men who desire war: those who haven't the slightest intention of fighting it themselves, and those who haven't the slightest idea what it is.”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Seth Grahame-Smith
“It is a strange thing how quickly our bodies die. How fragile a force our presence is. In an instant the soul is gone - leaving an empty, insignificant vessel in its stead. I have read of those sent to the gallows and guillotines of Europe. I have read of the great war of ages past and men slaughtered by the tens of thousands. And we give but fleeting consideration to such deaths, for it is our nature to banish such thoughts. But in doing so, we forget that they were each as alive as we, and the one length of rope - or bullet - or blade, took the whole of their lives in that one, fragile instant. Took their earliest days as swaddled infants, and their grayest unfulfilled futures. When one think of how many souls have suffered this fate in all of history - of the untold murders of untold men, women and children.. it is too much to bear.”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

“And I like a mouse who has taken a cat for its tutor.”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter

Seth Grahame-Smith
“It was a sort of peace I have rarely enjoyed since. As if we were the only two souls on earth—all of nature ours to enjoy. I wondered why a creator who had dreamt such beauty would have slandered it with such evil. Such grief. Why He had not been content to leave it unspoilt. I still wonder.”
Seth Grahame-Smith, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter
