More quotes by Anne Rice
There is one purpose to life and one only: to bear witness to and understand as much as possible of the complexity of the world- its beauty, its mysteries, its riddles.
Anne Rice
You can look at the New York Times Bestseller List and you can be pretty sure that the writers on that list don't know each other very well.
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
Why does shame and self-loathing become cruelty to the innocent ?
Anne Rice
I think to feel this happy is to be miserable, to feel this much satisfaction is to burn.
Anne Rice
Truth is a risky proposition. It's the nature of mediocre human beings to believe that lies are necessary, that they serve a purpose, that truth is subversive, that candor is dangerous, that the very scaffold of communal life is supported by lies.
Anne Rice
And I loved this moment for all it's pain...We seemed for a moment like two parts of the same thing.
Anne Rice
What is written beneath this heavy handsome book cover will count, so sayeth this cover.
Anne Rice
Suppose death had a heart to love and to release you, to whom would he turn this passion, would you chose a person from the crowd there. A person to suffer as you suffer.
Anne Rice
I think that we are supernatural. We are unique. We're the only animals in the universe that we know of that actually have self-consciousness, a sense of time and our own mortality.
Anne Rice
A perfect world or a world destroyed, one or the other- someday will come the end of hell.
Anne Rice
The evil of one murder is infinite, and my guilt is like my beauty - eternal. I cannot be forgiven, for there is no one to forgive me for all I've done.
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
Don't you see? It is a new age. It requires a new evil. And I am that new evil.
Anne Rice
Dear God, help me. Do not forget me on this tiny cinder lost in a galaxy that is lost–a heart no bigger than a speck of dust beating, beating against death, against meaninglessness, against guilt, against sorrow.
Anne Rice
A perfectly evil Devil makes even less sense than a perfect God.
Anne Rice
when we are weary, we speak lovingly of dreams as if they embodied our true deisres-What we WOULD have when that which we DO have so sorely disappoints us
Anne Rice
To really ask is to open the door to the whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner.
Anne Rice
You look good to me, you damnable little devil, good to embrace and good to love.
Anne Rice
The vampire is an outsider. He's the perfect metaphor for those things. He's someone who looks human and sounds human, but is not human, so he's always on the margins.
