More quotes by Anne Rice
All the mortal world is a lethal enemy during those hours between dawn and dusk.
Anne Rice
The one thing you share with every mortal is death.
Anne Rice
His Back was turned to the end of the world and the end of the world was quiet.
Anne Rice
I allowed myself to forget how totally I had fallen in love with Lestat's iridescent eyes, that I'd sold my soul for a many-colored and luminescent thing, thinking that a highly reflective surface conveyed the power to walk on water.
Anne Rice
So we reach into the raging chaos, and we cling to it, and we tell ourselves it has meaning, and that the world is good, and we are not evil, and we will all go home in the end.
Anne Rice
The vampires have always been metaphors for me. They've always been vehicles through which I can express things I have felt very, very deeply.
Anne Rice
Every moment must be first known and then savored.
Anne Rice
For me, places have a tremendous impact. I fall in love with places. All of life seems different in different places.
Anne Rice
I didn’t look to the shore much after this first long and memorable glimpse. I looked up at Heaven and her court of mythical creatures fixed forever in the all powerful and inscrutable stars. Ink black was the night beyond them, and they so like jewels that old poetry came back to me, the sound even of hymns sung only by men.
Anne Rice
My life's been too much of a self-created vocation. And there are times when I think I've done everything in the name of defiance.
Anne Rice
This is a lyrical guide that addresses the deep human yearning to make a difference. It's full of indelible stories reminding us that, yes, helping people is hard-but it's both possible and infinitely rewarding. A Path Appears offers practical steps that any of us can take to empower others, and ourselves.
Anne Rice
It's an awful truth that suffering can deepen us, give a greater lustre to our colours, a richer resonance to our words. That is, if it doesn't destroy us, if it doesn't burn away the optimism and the spirit, the capacity for visions, and the respect for simple yet indispensable things.
Anne Rice
Life itself must be founded upon the infinite possibility for choice and accident. And if we cannot prove that it is, we must believe that it is. We must believe that we can change, that we can control, that we can direct our own destinies.
Anne Rice
The atheism and nihilism of my earlier years now seems shallow, and even a bit cocky.
Anne Rice
Merciful death. How you love your precious guilt
Anne Rice
I love the world the Lord has created I love the mountains, the rivers, the valleys, the skies. I love the forests, the fields, the flowers. I love the mysteries of evolution and dna and the big bang. I want to know the majesties of the Lord's Creation. I cannot close my eyes to all this. I cannot turn away from science and scientific exploration.
Anne Rice
You think I live in the past. You don't understand that I actually change with every era, I always have as best I can
Anne Rice
Give me a man or woman who has read a thousand books and you give me an interesting companion. Give me a man or woman who has read perhaps three and you give me a very dangerous enemy indeed.
Anne Rice
The spirit who inhabits her animates us all. Destroy the host, you destroy the power. The young die first the old wither slowly the eldest perhaps would go last. But she is the Queen of the Damned, and the Damned can't live without her.
Anne Rice
I was obsessed with religious questions, the basics: Why are we here? Why is the world so beautiful?
Anne Rice
