“I hold up a mirror to life and what I see in it, I freely report; the good, the bad, and the ugly.”

“I make no apologies for being forthright.”

“And sometimes when you lie to me Sometimes I’ll lie to you And there isn’t a thing you could possibly do All these half-destroyed lives Aren’t as bad as they seem But now I see blood and I hear people scream Then I wake up And it’s just another bad dream . . .”

“I am neither good, nor bad, neither angel nor devil, I am a man, I am a vampire.”

“Good or bad is a matter of perspective. I met an immortal hunami once, a man called William Shakespeare, who wrote that there is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.”

“All I ever wanted...couldn t hold a candle to what I ve been given.”

“-and then what happened?- I asked him, but I had no desire to know. Whatever it was, it has to be ugly.”
