More quotes by Anne Rice
Re-telling the Christian story is the essence of my vocation. That has been going on since the Evangelists in one form or another.
Anne Rice
Your quest is for darkness only. This sea is not your sea. The myths of men are not your myths. Men's treasures are not yours.
Anne Rice
The supernatural world has always been more real to me than the real world.
Anne Rice
Mortal beauty often makes me ache, and mortal grandeur can fill me with that longing...but Paris, Paris drew me close to her heart, so I forgot myself entirely. Forgot the damned and questing preternatural thing that doted on mortal skin and mortal clothing. Paris overwhelmed, and lightened and rewarded more richly than any promise.
Anne Rice
I was influenced by the medieval theological beliefs when I presented Satan in Jesus' dream as unable to figure out who or what Jesus is, and unable to see the future.
Anne Rice
The greatest create of power you have on earth, whether you are an angel, a spirit, a man or woman or child is to help others.
Anne Rice
His blood coursed through my veins sweeter than life itself. And as it did, Lestats words made sense to me. I knew peace only when I killed and when I heard his heart in that terrible rhythm, I knew again what peace could be.
Anne Rice
I love the world the Lord has created I love the mountains, the rivers, the valleys, the skies. I love the forests, the fields, the flowers. I love the mysteries of evolution and dna and the big bang. I want to know the majesties of the Lord's Creation. I cannot close my eyes to all this. I cannot turn away from science and scientific exploration.
Anne Rice
An evil for these times destined to move through the world in handsome human guise.
Anne Rice
My body is no schoolboy.
Anne Rice
My own funeral, I'd like to be laid out in a coffin in my own house. I would like my coffin to be put in the double parlor, and I would like all the flowers to be white.
Anne Rice
One tiny flame could make so many other flames one tiny flame could set afire a whole world.
Anne Rice
I enjoy the Web site a lot and I like being able to talk to my readers. I've always had a very close relationship with them.
Anne Rice
Claudia... you've been a very very naughty little girl.
Anne Rice
This suffering, this unspeakable capacity to bleed and to know pain and to know annihilation, is what has to be overcome in this world if anyone is to reach God.
Anne Rice
Old truths and ancient magic, revolution and invention, all conspire to distract us from the passion that in one way or another defeats us all.
Anne Rice
I am not times fool, nor a god hardened by the millennia I am not the trickster in the black cape nor the sorrowful wanderer. I have a conscience. I know right from wrong I know what I do and yes, I do it. I am the Vampire Lestat. That's your answer do with it as you will.
Anne Rice
Nothing in all the world is so nonsensical and contradictory, save mortals, that is, who live in the grip of the superstitions of the past.
Anne Rice
His Back was turned to the end of the world and the end of the world was quiet.
Anne Rice
I don't believe in hell. The idea that a supreme being would make hell is ridiculous. An eternity of pain that results in no learning, reformation or rebirth is a nauseating idea. It's one of the reasons I left Christianity. I simply could not accept that version of God.
