Quotes

We had an idea to add a quote near the beginning of our film sequence, to give the audience a better idea of what ideas are involved in the film, and to put forward the idea that the vampire and human are the same person as an alter-ego. To make this effective, we thought we'd choose a quote from 'The Strange Case of Jekyll and Hyde' - one of the most famous supernatural alter-ego style stories.

Here are some of the possibilities, written by the author Robert Louis Stevenson:


  • "Quiet Minds cannot be perplexed or frightened but go on in fortune or misfortune at their own private pace, like a clock during a thunderstorm."
  • "If I am the chief of sinners, I am the chief of sufferers also."
  • "You must suffer me to go my own dark way."
  • "With every day, and from both sides of my intelligence, the moral and the intellectual, I thus drew steadily nearer to the truth, by whose partial discover I have been doomed to such a dreadful shipwreck: that man is not truly one, but truly two.
  • "I was slowly losing hold of my original and better self, and becoming slowly incorporated with my second and worse.
