Lily: We are not women who crawl. We are not women who kneel. And for this we will be branded radicals. Revolutionists. Women who are strong, and refuse to be degraded, and choose to protect themselves, are called monsters. That is the world's crime, not ours.

Catriona Hartdegen: Do you fence?
Vanessa: Alas, no.
Catriona Hartdegen: Oh, you should. It's wonderful for the mind. Every decision reduced to back and forth, thrust or parry. A clarity forms during it that the rest of the world is sadly lacking in. Life and death without death. Most of the time.

Catriona Hartdegen: If Dracula wanted you dead, you would be.
Vanessa: He doesn't want my death. He wants my submission. You seem to be a woman who understands why submission to another would be intolerable.
Catriona Hartdegen: That I do.
Vanessa: Even if you have to cheat.
Catriona Hartdegen: Every chance I get.
Vanessa: Then help me. We'll cheat him together.

Jared Talbot: I said that's enough...
Ethan: We never forgive those who trespass against us...
Jared Talbot: You will shut your mouth!
Ethan: Lead us into temptation and deliver us to evil, for thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory...
Hecate Poole: For a few hours longer.
Ethan: Amen.
