Vampires are important, because they remind us what stakes and garlic are for.
That deserves some kind of award for quote of the day.
And so it should; it's a bloody good sentence. You can mail off the award to Terry Pratchett, somewhere in England, the UK.
The quotation is from one of my favourite Pratchett books, /Carpe Jugulum/, which is about vampires and stakes and garlic and holy water and narcissism and faith and Right and Wrong and other groovy stuff.
