George Bernard Shaw Quotes
The schoolmaster is the person who takes the children off the parents' hands for a consideration.

The coolest thing about the series is that we stay very true to the books; it would be silly for us not to, because the books are exactly what the fans want to see. There's an action side to it, which I love, and there are werewolves now. There aren't just vampires. There's a wolf pack.
