Summary
"I seemed somehow to know her face, and to know it in connection with some dreamy fear, but I could not recollect at the moment how or where. All three had brilliant white teeth that shone like pearls against the ruby of their voluptuous lips. There was something about them that made me uneasy, some longing and at the same time some deadly fear. I felt in my heart a wicked, burning desire that they would kiss me with those red lips. It is not good to note this down, lest some day it should meet Mina’s eyes and cause her pain, but it is the truth."
- Bram Stoker's Dracula.Jonathan is wrong about why Mina was upset by his writing about his run in with the brides of Dracula.

Summary
“Wouldst thou, then, have preferred the condition of a weak woman, exposed to all evil and capable of none?”
If such is the rule of the world, then the world must be changed and the rules broken. Or: men will literally become obsessed with poison and making a daughter who breathes poison instead of getting therapy to cope with their mother's death, and only one of those things could be vaguely justified.
