“You are one seriously testy Creature of the Night. (Amanda)”

“The Night World isn't a place. It's all around us. The creatures of Night World are beautiful and deadly and irresitable to humans. Your best friend could be one-so could your crush.”

“I'd rather be a creature of the night than an old dude.”

“P. P. S. Just because I like you, it doesn't mean I still don't think you're an evil creature of the night. You are.”

“Any time I’m not shooting my mouth off to a clichéd, two-bit creature of the night like you, it’s because I’m up to something.”

“Because it’s our duty to God to protect the rest of humanity from evil creatures of the night.”

“The cosmic, and more particularly the earthly, function of beauty is to actualize in the intelligent and sensitive creature the Platonic recollection of the archetypes, and thus open the way towards the luminous Night of the one and infinite Essence.”

“You grow ravenous. You run fevers. You know exhilarations. You can't sleep at night, because your beast-creature ideas want out and turn you in your bed. It is a grand way to live.”

“So I lied to you last night. I said that I just wanted one night with you. But I want every night with you.”

“As if the night had said to me, ‘You are the night and the night alone understands you and enfolds you in its arms’ One with the shadows. Without nightmare. An inexplicable peace.”
