(after Edward Dalton declares, "What we are talking about is the extinction of the human race.") "What we're talking about is that we only have enough blood to sustain our population until the end of the month."
- Charles Bromley,
Daybreakers
(after Edward Dalton asks him for assurance that when a blood substitute is developed that they will stop using humans for food) "Well, it's important that we allow the human race time to repopulate...the majority of the population will be content with a blood substitute but there will always be those who are willing to pay a little extra for the real thing. We have to be realistic, if we don't cater to all markets, someone else will."
- Charles Bromley,

(telling his brother, Edward Dalton, why he "turned" him) "Do you know why I turned you, Ed? You used to say to me that you'd rather die than be like the rest of us. I didn't turn you because it was convenient or because I had some selfish need for blood. I turned you because you would have died if I didn't. I couldn't lose you, Ed."

(talking to Charles Bromley) "Vampires think they own this world, that the humans have to hide from them. That ain't true. Every day the sun comes up and every day the vamps have to hide. Vampires can never survive. That's the truth. Elvis Presley once said, 'Truth is like the sun, you can shut it out for a time but it ain't going away.'"
