In Their Own Words
"“I devote my remaining days to tracking and extinguishing a monster.”"
"“I curse my conceited incredulity, my despicable affectation of superiority, my blindness, my obstinacy—all—too late.”"
"“That is the chapel of the Karnsteins, down there... It was a bad family, and here its bloodstained annals were written. It is hard that they should, after death, continue to plague the human race with their atrocious lusts.”"
