Quotes 

• Mina Harker : How did Lucy die? Was she in great pain?

  Professor Abraham Van Helsing : Yeah, she was in great pain! Then we cut off her head, and drove a stake through her heart, and burned it, and then she found peace.

• Van Helsing : Mr. Morris, your bullets will not harm him. He must be beheaded. I suggest you use your big Bowie knife.

  Quincey P. Morris : Well, I wasn't plannin' on getting that close, Doc.

• Van Helsing : Jack. Come here. I know how deeply you loved her. That is why you must trust me and believe.

  Doctor Jack Seward : Believe? How can I believe?

  Van Helsing : I want you to bring me, before nightfall, a set of postmortem knives.

  Doctor Jack Seward : An autopsy? On Lucy?

  Van Helsing : No, no, no. Not exactly. I just want to cut off her head and take out her heart.

• Professor Abraham Van Helsing : Civilization, and syphilization, have advanced together.

• Van Helsing : We've all become God's madmen, all of us.

• Professor Abraham Van Helsing : We are dealing with forces beyond all human experience, and enormous power. So guard her well. Otherwise, your precious Lucy will become a bitch of the Devil! A whore of darkness!

  Quincey P. Morris : Well, you're a sick old buzzard!

  Professor Abraham Van Helsing : Hear me out, young man. Lucy is not a random victim, attacked by mere accident, you understand? No. She is a willing recruit, a breathless follower, a wanton follower. I dare say, a devoted disciple. She is the Devil's concubine!

• Dracula : I, who served the Cross. I, who commanded nations, hundreds of years before you were born.

  Professor Abraham Van Helsing : Your armies were defeated. You tortured and impaled thousands of people.

  Dracula : I was betrayed. Look what your God has done to me!

• Lord Arthur Holmwood : Forgive me, sir. My life is hers - I would give my last drop of blood to save her.

  Van Helsing : The last drop? Thank you, you're very welcome here.

• Dracula : Is this my reward for defending God's church?

  Transylvanian Priest : Sacrilege!

  Dracula : I RENOUNCE GOD! I RENOUNCE HIM! I shall rise from my own death, to avenge hers with all the powers of darkness.

• Van Helsing : She lives beyond the grace of God, a wanderer in the outer darkness. She is "vampyr", "nosferatu". These creatures do not die like the bee after the first sting, but instead grow strong and become immortal once infected by another nosferatu. So, my friends we fight not one beast but legions that go on age after age after age, feeding on the blood of the living.

• Van Helsing : Yet, we may still save her precious soul. But, not on an empty stomach! Jack!

  Doctor Jack Seward : Yes, sir?

  Van Helsing : Ah! I starve! Feed me!

• Van Helsing : [to Dr. Jack Seward]  Jack, you are a scientist; do you not think there are things in this Universe that you cannot understand and which are true?

• Van Helsing : Do not let your eyes see or your ears hear that which you cannot account for.

• Van Helsing : We have learned much. Dracula fears us. He fears time. For if he does not, why does he hurry so.
