many things you can't explain...it's as if there's some evil
force hovering over this house...some force that's trying to
destroy this family."
---Mrs. Johnson 1968
|
- "For most men, time moves slowly, oh so slowly,
they don't even realize it. But time has revealed itself to me
in a very special way. Time is a rushing, howling wind that rages
past me, withering me in a single, relentless blast, and then
continues on. I've been sitting here passively, submissive to
its rage, watching its work. Listen! Time, howling, withering!"
-- Barnabas 1967
|
- "Well, you can't say I didn't earn my salary today.
The office was in a state of chaos. The secretaries are staying
home from work because of these attacks that have been happening.
They're afraid to leave their houses. We're terribly understaffed,
and even I had to do some of the clerical work."
--Roger Collins 1967
|
- "You know I can't escape. Don't you think I've
wanted to, tried to? I go out of this house almost every day,
ride into town. Don't you think that while I'm there, I have
the impulse to step on the gas, never stop drivin' until I'm
thousands of miles away? I tried it a few times, but he's got
this power. My will isn't my own. I keep seeing him, hearing
him--he's done something to my mind!"
-- Willie Loomis 1967
|
- "But just the same, I wonder if that isn't why he
always seems a little bit sad, a little bit lost. Because
he is lost in the present. He really does come from another
time. He'll never find it. Because it's gone forever."
--Vicki, talking about Barnabas 1967
|
- "Someday I will meet a man. A stranger.
But gentle. And he shall be courtly and charming.
And he will love me as I want to be loved. I've always
dreamed of such a man. And I know that we are destined
to meet."
-- Roxanne Drew 1840
|
- "No, I will not stay here. I will go away and never
come back. Never! That will be your punishment. I know there's
good and I know there's evil, because I learned it from you.
But you've forgotten it, Barnabas. You have to learn it all over
again, and I'll never come back until you do. Goodbye,
Barnabas!"
--Sarah Collins 1967
|
- "I set a curse upon you, Barnabas Collins!
You wanted your Josette so much, well, you shall have her-but
not in the way that you would have chosen. You will
never rest, Barnabas! And you will never be able to love
anyone-for whoever loves you will die. That is my
curse, and you will live with it-through all eternity!"
-- Angelique to Barnabas 1796
|
- "So this is how it ends. Your beautiful face.
How quiet, as if you were asleep. Am I never to see your
eyes again? So often, they looked at me with love, and
I returned nothing but hatred. I was blinded by my fury
that my rejection of you caused. And so, through the years,
we battled and fought-and I never guessed that, beneath my rage,
I felt a love as strong as yours."
-- Barnabas' final farewell to Angelique

- "I've always loved Collinwood. It's just as
I remembered it."
"Remembered it? But you've never been here before."
"But-I feel as though I have. Descriptions, stories,
they've all been handed down from generation to generation.
And being here now is like-returning to a memory from childhood."
-- Barnabas and Elizabeth, 1967
|
- "I wouldn't be a Collins if I didn't recognize that
my heart, my soul, that my roots are here. And- perhaps-
my destiny."
-- Barnabas 1967

-- David and Barnabas 1967
|
- "I was a Collins. Why didn't you protect me?
Where were you when I was turned into something that even my
own father loathed? If his ghost is there with yours
- tell him I've come home. I claim this house as mine.
I am free now. And alive. The chains with which he
bound me are broken. And I have returned to live the life
I never had. Whatever that life may turn out to be."
-- Barnabas to Josette's portrait 1967
|
- "It will be a long time before this house falls apart.
It was built to last forever . . . Like the pyramids in Egypt."
"You can't compare the pyramids to this house . . . The
pyramids were designed to be tombs."
"You're right. This house was not designed
to be a tomb."
-- Barnabas and Vicki, 1967
|
- "The beautiful exterior belied the hatred and distrust
that lived beneath this roof. Nothing was ever real here.
The love and happiness that one would expect was never lived
in the lives of those who lived here."
-- Barnabas to Vicki, 1967

- "There was much bitterness in the family. There
were even those who would liked to have considered Barnabas
Collins dead. But he lived on. He lived on-and outlived
his enemies."
-- Barnabas to Elizabeth, 1967

"Well, I don't know, Willie. That's sort of up
to you, isn't it?"

-- Willie and Jason, 1967

maybe that he belongs to the house."

no longer your son!"

And when the time comes for me to fulfill those needs, I am helpless
to resist."
- Barnabas to Joshua, 1796
|
- "You will not let me die. I know. You
have robbed me of Josette. Well, I am through loving
. . . You need kill no one else. I will never show love
for a human being again. Your curse is over! I am
what you made me - but I will never love again. So go
back to your grave!"
-- Barnabas to Angelique, 1796

- before."
-- Dr. Lang 1968
|
- "I had the gun in my hand. Why didn't I do
it? I value life now that I am human. Is it that
simple? Even the life of a woman who has done everything
she can to make my life a hell?"
-- Barnabas 1968
|
- ". . . A who had a unique dream.
He believed he could create a human being. He believed

reality . . . the result was that you began to breathe, to live
. . ."

Collins. Do you?"

face. Every cheat! Every lie! Every trick!"
-- Quentin to Julia, 1970
|
- "Angelique and I . . . are not friends."

-- Jebez Hawkes and Quentin, 1970

was associated with them, but now he's become their most dedicated

-- Angelique to Sky, 1970

only way to bring these people back to the truth is to smile
and lie as much as they do."
-- Julia, 1970

fascinated by that man."
