More quotes by Anne Rice
Protect your voice and your vision. If going on the Internet and reading Internet reviews is bad for you, don’t do it. … Do what gets you to write and not what blocks you. … Don’t take any guff off anybody.
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
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
I'm going to keep on dealing with the supernatural in a lot of ways.
Anne Rice
This suffering, this unspeakable capacity to bleed and to know pain and to know annihilation, is what has to be overcome in this world if anyone is to reach God.
Anne Rice
My last sunrise. That morning, I was not yet a vampire. And I saw my last sunrise. I remember it completely yet I do not think I remember any other sunrise before it.

Anne Rice
So until we meet again, I am thinking of you always I love you I wish you were here...in my arms.
Anne Rice
I was good and bad, but never wicked.
Anne Rice
Sweet to think on it, that when we are last weary of all this world there is the rising sun
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
No matter how long we exist, we have our memories. Points in time which time itself cannot erase. Suffering may distort my backward glances, but even to suffering, some memories will yield nothing of their beauty or their splendor. Rather they remain as hard as gems.
Anne Rice
One will hate you for taking his life, another will run to excesses that you scorn. A third will emerge mad and raving, another a monster you cannot control. One will be jealous of your superiority, another shut you out... And the veil will always come down between you Make a legion, you will be, always and forever alone!
Anne Rice
When you find out there is no ultimate good and evil in which you can place your faith, the world does not fall apart at the seams. It simply means that every decision is more difficult, more critical, because you are creating the good and evil yourself and they are very real.
Anne Rice

Anne Rice
Sometimes fear is a warning. It's like someone putting a hand on your shoulder and saying Go No Farther.
