Andrew Marlowe, psychiatre, mène une vie paisible jusqu'au jour où un peintre renommé lacère une toile à la National Gallery. Andrew va tenter de comprendre cet acte, tâche d'autant plus ardue que l'artiste, devenu son patient, refuse de parler.--[Memento].
Quotes by Elizabeth Kostova
From WikiquoteDracula is a metaphor for the evil that is so hard to undo in history.
As a historian, I have learned that, in fact, not everyone who reaches back into history can survive it. And it is not only reaching back that endangers us; sometimes history itself reaches inexorably forward for us with its shadowy claw.
Life’s better, sounder, when we don’t brood unnecessarily on horrors. As you know, human history is full of evil deeds, and maybe we ought to think of them with tears, not fascination.
