I would die rather than live without you. I would die the same way he died. I can't bear you to look at me the way you did. I cannot bear it if you do not love me! -Claudia.

More quotes by Anne Rice
The library furnished our dreams, helped us shape our ambitions, made up people of books and ideas and grand designs.
Anne Rice
To really ask is to open the door to the whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner.
Anne Rice
It is not man who is the enemy of the human species. It is the irrational it is the spiritual when it is divorced from the material from the lesson in one beating heart or one bleeding vein.
Anne Rice
I no longer represent any organized religion. I'm not Catholic. I'm not Christian. I'm saying this because I have to be an outsider for Christ.
Anne Rice
Paris was a universe whole and entire unto herself, hollowed and fashioned by history so she seemed in this age of Napoleon III with her towering buildings, her massive cathedrals, her grand boulevards and ancient winding medieval streets - as vast and indestructible as nature itself.
Anne Rice
-You are on the verge of being truly mad. -No, not at all. Look at me. I can tie my shoelaces. See?
Anne Rice
Aren't there gradations of evil? Is evil a great perilous gulf into which one falls with the first sin, plummeting to the depth?
Anne Rice
And this lesson about mortal peace of mind I never forgot. Even if a ghost is ripping a house to pieces, throwing in pans all over, pouring water of pillows, making clocks chime at all hours, mortal will accept almost any natural explanation offered, no matter how absurd, rather than the obvious supernatural one, for what is going on.
Anne Rice
It was as if when I looked into his eyes I was standing alone on the edge of the world...on a windswept ocean beach. There was nothing but the soft roar of the waves.
Anne Rice
...what was the good of being a movie werewolf? You howled at the moon you couldn't remember what you did, and then somebody shot you.
Anne Rice
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
Louis: You see that old woman? That will never happen to you. You will never grow old, and you will never die. Claudia: And it means something else too, doesn't it? I shall never ever grow up.
Anne Rice
It was as if this night were only one of thousands of nights, world without end, night curving into night to make a great arching line of which I couldn’t see the end, a night in which I roamed alone under cold, mindless stars.
Anne Rice
I lived like a man who wanted to die but who had no courage to do it himself.
Anne Rice
The old gods will bring about vengeance not so much because they exist but because I once honored them.
Anne Rice
I was good and bad, but never wicked.
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 love you still, that's the torment of it. Lestat I never loved. But you! The measure of my hatred is that love. They are the same! Do you know now how much I hate you!
Anne Rice
But I still did not realize how mad she was, and how accustomed to dreaming and that she would not cry out for reality, rather would feed reality to her dreams, a demon elf feeding her spinning wheel with the reeds of the world so she might make her own weblike universe.
Anne Rice
Anger is too pathetic. Anger is as weak as fear.
Anne Rice
