And yet when King Laugh come, he make them all dance to the tune he play. Bleeding hearts, and dry bones of the churchyard, and tears that burn as they fall, all dance together to the music that he make with that smileless mouth of him. Ah, we men and women are like ropes drawn tight with strain that pull us different ways. Then tears come, and like the rain on the ropes, they brace us up, until perhaps the strain become too great, and we break. But King Laugh he come like the sunshine, and he ease off the strain again, and we bear to go on with our labor, what it may be.","author":"Bram Stoker","tags":["dracula","laugh","life","misery","van-helsing","world"],"id":43566,"author_id":"Bram+Stoker"},{"text":"She laughed again. 'You must go to the movies a lot. This is not Dracula, and the villain isn't Bela Lugosi. They took a good friend away from me, and they know I know. But, at any rate, I did try to find her boyfriend the day after she disappeared. I knew where he lived and I went there. His landlord said he'd left unexpectedly and he didn't know where he'd gone. Lucky for me he wasn't there, I suppose.' She took another deep breath and squinted at her watch. 'Oh, my Lord. I didn't realize it was that late. I really must be going.","author":"Donald Jeffries","tags":["bela-lugosi","dracula","hollywood","science-fiction"],"id":46833,"author_id":"Donald+Jeffries"},{"text":"With this and this - and he touched one of the canine teeth and that below it - the little children can be bitten.' Unaesthetic as it may seem, vampires bite out of one side of the mouth, and one side only, which is only common sense. The upper canines in themselves are little more than daggers, useless in tearing flesh without employing the lower canines to help pin the skin together. Preoccupied with the erotic, the cinema necessarily rides roughshod over such technicalities.","author":"Clive Leatherdale","tags":["dracula","vampire","vampires"],"id":91353,"author_id":"Clive+Leatherdale"},{"text":"Souls and memories can do strange things during trance.","author":"Bram Stoker","tags":["dracula","dreams","memories","strange"],"id":96476,"author_id":"Bram+Stoker"},{"text":"In torment, there was release.In the darkness, there was light.In solitude, there were companions.","author":"C.C.
