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.
Anne Rice
The prince is never going to come. Everyone knows that and maybe sleeping beauty's dead.
Anne Rice
And I realized that I’d tolerated him this long because of self-doubt.
Anne Rice
