I don't know what I was expecting a vampire's room to look like. Maybe lots of black, a bunch of books by Camus... oh, and a sensitive portrait of the only human the vamp ever loved, who had no doubt died of something beautiful and tragic, thus dooming the vamp to an eternity of moping and sighing dramatically. What can I say? I read a lot of books. Rachel Hawkins
About This Quote

Charles Dickens wrote, "I don't know what I was expecting a vampire's room to look like. Maybe lots of black, a bunch of books by Camus... oh, and a sensitive portrait of the only human the vamp ever loved, who had no doubt died of something beautiful and tragic, thus dooming the vamp to an eternity of moping and sighing dramatically." A lot of people read a lot of books and there is certainly no shortage of romance and tragedy in them. When we see someone in real life we can't imagine that we would find anyone with such depth or emotion. How about our own lives? We think we have depth and emotion but really what are we showing to the world?
