Anne Rice
Image
I tell you, we would be hard put to determine what is more evil -- religion or the pure idea. The intervention of the supernatural or the elegant abstract solution! Both have bathed this earth in suffering both have brought the human race literally and figuratively to its knees.
Anne Rice
