Dr. Jack Seward
Count, some wine? You haven't...
Count Dracula
No thank you, Doctor. I never drink wine.
Lucy Seward
Before you arrived, we were looking at the ship's log.
Count Dracula
It wasn't lost at sea?
Lucy Seward
No. The very last entry was a strange word, a word that Mina thought meant "undead".
Count Dracula
Undead?
Mina Van Helsing
Yes. "Nosferatu".
Count Dracula
Ah, it means "not dead".
Lucy Seward
Then you were right.
Count Dracula
No, with your permission and all due respect to Miss Van Helsing. Yes, I'm quite finished, thank you. There is a distinction, the words "not dead" carry the simple meaning.
Mina Van Helsing
Dead... undead... I don't care! They all frighten me!
Lucy Seward
Oh, I love to be frightened!
Count Dracula
Do you?

Lucy Seward
Poor Mina.

What about those marks on her neck?

Dr. Sam Loomis
You're afraid.
Rachel Carruthers
I am not.
Dr. Sam Loomis
You're afraid the whole thing might start to happen again. There's nothing wrong with being afraid.
Rachel Carruthers
And I suppose there's nothing wrong with just leaving my little foster sister here alone?
Dr. Sam Loomis
You can telephone her from the cabin. She'll be properly looked after.

Sheriff Ben Meeker
I don't...
[grabs Loomis]
Dr. Sam Loomis
No of course you don't forget. How could you? You never looked into his face did you? You never saw his eyes. You never saw that, that nothing no expression, blank. My memory goes back 11 years to the night I offered... I'm gonna show you. Show you something, look. Look at this, look at that. I prayed that he would burn in Hell, but in my heart I knew that Hell would not have him.

It was the coffin of a 9 year old girl. What do you think he is going to do with that? Huh? You're 9 years old, aren't you, Jamie?

All things were made through Him, and without Him, was made nothing that has been made. In Him was life, and the life was the light of man. And the light shines on in the darkness, and the darkness grasped it not. The greatest story ever told...
