How shameful. How predictable! How insipid. And how sweet.
Anne Rice
Image
That is the crowning evil, that we can even go so far as to love each other, you and I. And who else would show us a particle of love, a particle of compassion or mercy? Who else, knowing us as we know each other, could do anything but destroy us? Yet we can love each other.
Anne Rice
Image
I can’t help being a gorgeous fiend. It’s just the card I drew.
Anne Rice
Image
There are too many other inexplicable things around us--horrors, threats, mysteries that draw you in and then inevitably disenchant you. Back to the predictable and humdrum. The prince is never going to come, everybody knows that and maybe Sleeping Beauty's dead.
Anne Rice

I'm always looking, and I'm always asking questions.
Anne Rice
Image
I’d thought I knew what beauty was in women but she’d surpassed all the language I had for it.
Anne Rice
Image
How can so much beauty hide such a bruised and steely heart, and why must I love him, why must I lean in my weariness upon his irresistible yet indomitable strength? Is he not the wizend funeral spirit of a dead man in a child's clothes?

Anne Rice
Image
I never lie, I said offhand. At least not to those I don't love.
Anne Rice

All the mortal world is a lethal enemy during those hours between dawn and dusk.
Anne Rice
Image
That morning I was not yet a vampire, and I saw my last sunrise. I remember it completely, and yet I can't recall any sunrise before it. I watched the whole magnificence of the dawn for the last time as if it were the first. And then I said farewell to sunlight, and set out to become what I became.
Anne Rice
Image
Who knew that better than I, who had presided over the death of my own body, seeing all I called human wither and die only to form an unbreakable chain which held me fast to this world yet made me forever its exile, a specter with a beating heart?
Anne Rice

The prince is never going to come. Everyone knows that and maybe sleeping beauty's dead.

Re-telling the Christian story is the essence of my vocation. That has been going on since the Evangelists in one form or another.

Drink from me and live forever. Lestat de Lioncourt

One moment the world is as it is. The next, it is something entirely different. Something it has never been before.
Anne Rice
Image
When I'm writing, the darkness is always there. I go where the pain is.
Anne Rice
Image
It seems an insult to the night to speak of purpose and intent, when this common moment is so brimming full of blessed design tranquility. All things follow their course.
Anne Rice
Image
No matter how long we exist, we have our memories. Points in time which time itself cannot erase. Suffering may distort my backward glances, but even to suffering, some memories will yield nothing of their beauty or their splendor. Rather they remain as hard as gems.
