Thank you, sir, but I am perfectly content being the bride of death.

The business of Mr. Bennett's life was to keep his daughters alive. The business of Mrs. Bennett's was to get them married.

I dare say she means to keep you from his attentions. Your honour demands she be slain.

So long as this country is cursed with slavery, so too will it be cursed with vampires.

I leave you, hoping that the lamp of liberty will burn in your bosoms until there shall no longer be a doubt that all mean are created free and equal.

If a novelist has created vivid characters, interesting relationships, settings the reader can easily imagine, and intriguing stories, a screenwriter has loads to work with. The challenge comes with deciding what to cut and what to keep.

If you write really good material, the rest just falls into place. There's really no trick to it.
