More quotes by Anne Rice
Vampires always order hot drinks. They aren't going to drink them but they can feel the warmth and smell them if they're hot, and that is so good.
Anne Rice
But all morality is of necessity shaped by context. I'm not talking relativism, no. To ignore the context of a decision is in fact immoral.
Anne Rice
I picture heaven as a vast library, with unlimited volumes to read. And paintings and statues to examine galore. I picture it as a great doorway to learning...rather than one great dull answer to all our questions
Anne Rice
Would that death were like this. Would that one would sleep and sleep and sleep forever.
Anne Rice
Oh, if the moon only had a secret, if the moon only held a truth. But the moon was just the moon.
Anne Rice
Many Christians believe that the vast majority of those created by God will burn in Hell for All Eternity. Many Christians not only believe the world will end soon, but are looking forward to it. I MUST WALK AWAY FROM IT ALL. IN JESUS' NAME.
Anne Rice
What I have always wanted more than revenge is to bring the other person to recognition of the pain they caused, so they essentially say, I will never do that again.
Anne Rice
The truth is most women are weak, be they mortal or immortal. But when they are strong, they are absolutely unpredictable.
Anne Rice
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
It's so easy to persecute an older, overweight, unwise, crude, ignorant woman who may very well be a good person at heart who has achieved a great deal in her life. So easy to vilify her and hate her and try to destroy her life. Woe to anyone today who is not slender, young, clever and politically correct.
Anne Rice
My greatest sin has always been that I have a wonderful time being myself
Anne Rice
Artists are meant to be madmen, to disturb and shock us.
Anne Rice
Invest in a feather duster - the possibilities are endless.
Anne Rice
I like mainly to be invisible, to sort of drift around unseen in the world.
Anne Rice
I assume as a child Jesus had to learn how to do carpentry, learn Torah, learn all the things a human child had to learn. If He was human in all ways except that He did not sin, this must have been the case.
Anne Rice
And so this young one, this young one whom I had so loved, I had to forsake, no matter how broken my heart, no matter how lonely my soul, no matter how bruised my intellect and spirit.
Anne Rice
But don't you see, all human decisions are made like this. Do you think the mother knows what will happen to the child in her womb? Dear God, we are lost, I tell you. What does it matter if you give it to me and it's wrong! There is no wrong! There is only desperation, and I would have it! I want to live forever with you.
Anne Rice
You never know the palette of the one you kill until the mind disgorges its finest colours.
Anne Rice
You reach deep down and bring up what feels absolutely authentic to you as you move along with the book, but you don't know everything about it. You can't.
Anne Rice
There was no point in waiting until the next world. You had to do everything now, every kind of sin.
Anne Rice
