Status Updates From Carmilla

"Shy and strange was the look with which she quickly hid her face in my neck and hair, with tumultuous sighs that almost turned to sobs. She pressed in mine a hand that trembled; her soft cheek was glowing against my own. 'Darling, darling,' she murmured, 'I live in you; and you would die for me, I love you so.'
She was gazing on me with eyes from which all fire, all meaning had flown; her face was colorless."

"'How romantic you are, Carmilla,' I said. 'Whenever you tell me your story, it will be made up chiefly of some one great romance.'
She kissed me silently.
'I am sure, Carmilla, you have been in love; that there is, at this moment, an affair of the heart going on.'
'I have been in love with no one, and never shall,' she whispered, 'unless it should be with you.' How beautiful she looked in the moonlight!"

'Then you have been ill?' I asked.
'More ill than ever you were,' she answered.
'Long ago?'
'Yes, a long time. I suffered from this very illness; but I forget all except my pain and weakness, and these were not so bad as are suffered in other diseases.'
'You were very young then?'
'I dare say, let us talk no more of it. You would not wound a friend?'"

"'Creator! Nature!' said the young lady. 'And this disease that invades the country is natural. Nature. All things proceed from Nature--don't they? All things in the heaven, in the earth, and under the earth, act and live as Nature ordains? I think so.'"

"'All this,' said my father, 'is strictly referable to natural causes. These poor people infect one another with their superstitions, and so repeat in imagination the images of terror that have infested their neighbors.'"
