I feel as if that room, the one in the mirror, were trying to... to claim me, to draw me into it. It almost becomes the real room and my own bedroom imaginary.

Quote context

[...]

- Well, if you must know, it's that mirror. You remember me telling you that first evening? Well, it's got worse. Much worse. Every time I look in it now, I see that room.

- It's getting me down. I'd really rather not talk about it.

- You'll feel much better if you do. It's no good bottling things up, you know.

- Well at first, if I made an enormous effort of will, the reflection used to change back to what it ought to be. But lately, however hard I try, it doesn't change anymore.

- The only thing to do is to try not to look in it at all.

- But in a queer sort of way it fascinates me.

- I feel as if that room, the one in the mirror, were trying to... to claim me, to draw me into it. It almost becomes the real room and my own bedroom imaginary.

- And I know there's something waiting for me on the other side of the mirror. Something evil. Monstrously evil. And if I cross that dividing line, something awful will happen.

- Well, let's get rid of the beastly thing. You know you don't have to keep it just because I've given it to you. I can take it back and they'll change it.

- The trouble's not in the mirror, it's in my mind. It must be. A mirror's just wood and glass.

- Peter, I don't know what to say. Perhaps you're overworked. Why don't you see a doctor?

- I have. He couldn't find anything wrong with me.

- I think I shall have to go see a mental specialist.

- Oh, nonsense! You're as sane as I am.

- Obviously, I can't be!

Top rated lines from this movie

Because a chap becomes a ghost, it surely doesn't mean that he ceases to be a gentleman.
And I know there's something waiting for me on the other side of the mirror. Something evil. Monstrously evil. And if I cross that dividing line, something awful will happen.
I wish it were as easy as that, but trying to remember a dream is like... How shall I put it? Being out at night in a thunderstorm. There's a flash of lightning, and for one brief moment, everything stands out vivid and starkly.
Whistling winds... Clanking chains. -Aaaah! Blood curdling screams.
Well, when I was dressing this evening, just as I was tying my tie, I suddenly realised the reflection was all wrong. -What do you mean, wrong? -Well, it wasn't my room I was seeing, it was some other room.
