More quotes by Anne Rice
My heart right now is totally connected to a book called The Servant of the Bones, which is not in any way connected with vampires or witches. It's about a new hero, a ghost, who really doesn't particularly like the job that he's been given. I'm in love with this hero and in love with his dilemma.
Anne Rice
Ignore any loss of nerve, ignore any loss of self-confidence, ignore any doubt or confusion. Move on believing in love, in peace, and harmony, and in great accomplishment. Remember joy isn't a stranger to you. You are winning and you are strong. Love. Love first, love always, love forever.
Anne Rice
I am the Vampire Lestat. I'm immortal more or less. The light of the sun, the sustained heat of an intense fire-these things might destroy me. But then again, they might not.
Anne Rice
No matter how rudely someone treats you, remain kind. Walking away at peace with yourself is worth it.
Anne Rice
Lestat and Louie feel sorry for vampires that sparkle in the sun. They would never hurt immortals who choose to spend eternity going to high school over and over again in a small town ---- anymore than they would hurt the physically disabled or the mentally challenged. My vampires possess gravitas. They can afford to be merciful.
Anne Rice
But death we are, and death we've always been.
Anne Rice
I find at moments I'm as fragile as glass.
Anne Rice
I have lived lies. I have done it again and again. I live lies because I cannot endure the weakness of anger, and I cannot admit the irrationality of love.-Marius
Anne Rice
Don't you see? It is a new age. It requires a new evil. And I am that new evil.
Anne Rice
The only power that exists is inside ourselves.
Anne Rice
I am deeply discouraged by Catholic Bishops who say Catholics cannot support same sex marriage in our secular culture.
Anne Rice
The old gods will bring about vengeance not so much because they exist but because I once honored them.
Anne Rice
God, why didn't you make us all dogs?
Anne Rice
As for oblivion, well, we can wait a little while for that.
Anne Rice
Whatever will happen will happen, but choose your companions with care. Choose them because you like to look at them and you like the sound of their voices, and they have profound secrets in them that you wish to know. In other words, choose them because you love them. Otherwise you will not be able to bear their company for very long.
Anne Rice
But the sky was never quite the same shade of blue again.
Anne Rice
He was so excited by this little bit of intelligence that he might have gone off, perplexed, pondering for a long time. It was like reading a wonderful sentence in a book, and not being able to continue because so many possibilities were crowding his mind.
Anne Rice
We would make our heroes shallow.... We would make them brittle. It is they who must remind us of the true meaning of strength.
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
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
