Famous quotes containing the words john and/or romero:
“Oh for some honest lover’s ghost,
Some kind unbodied post
Sent from the shades below!
I strangely long to know
Whether the nobler chaplets wear
Those that their mistress’ scorn did bear,
Or those that were used kindly.”
—Sir John Suckling (1609–1642)
“Nosferatu! Vampire! First I will save your soul, then I will destroy you.”
—George Romero (b. 1940)
