“Oh, my dear, if you only knew how strange is the matter regarding which I am here, it is you who would laugh. I have learned not to think little of any one's belief, no matter how strange it may be.

― Bram Stoker, Dracula

“..the world seems full of good men--even if there are monsters in it.”
― Bram Stoker, Dracula

“I like best to have one book in my hand, and a stack of others on the floor beside me, so as to know the supply of poppy and mandragora will not run out before the small hours.”
― Dorothy Parker, The Collected Dorothy Parker

“He never went out without a book under his arm, and he often came back with two.”
― Victor Hugo, Les Misérables
