More quotes by Anne Rice
Every moment must be first known and then savored.
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
What I did was take the Jesus of the Gospels, the Son of God, the Son of the Virgin Mary, and sought to make Him utterly believable, a vital breathing character.
Anne Rice
If you want to be a writer, write. Write and write and write. If you stop, start again. Save everything that you write. If you feel blocked, write through it until you feel your creative juices flowing again. Write. Writing is what makes a writer, nothing more and nothing less.
Anne Rice
You look good to me, you damnable little devil, good to embrace and good to love.
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
The world changes, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.
Anne Rice
Don't you see? I'm not the spirit of any age. I'm at odds with everything and always have been! I have never belonged anywhere with anyone at any time!
Anne Rice
Get thee behind me, tragedy.
Anne Rice
First-person narrators is the way I know how to write a book with the greatest power and chance of artistic success.
Anne Rice
Consequently, if you believe God made Satan, you must realize that all Satan's power comes from God and so that Satan is simply God's child, and that we are God's children also. There are no children of Satan, really.
Anne Rice
There are too many other inexplicable things around us--horrors, threats, mysteries that draw you in and then inevitably disenchant you. Back to the predictable and humdrum. The prince is never going to come, everybody knows that and maybe Sleeping Beauty's dead.
Anne Rice
I assume as a child Jesus had to learn how to do carpentry, learn Torah, learn all the things a human child had to learn. If He was human in all ways except that He did not sin, this must have been the case.
Anne Rice
He had grieved for me, I'll give him that much. But then he is so good at grieving! He wears woe as others wear velvet sorrow flatters him like the light of candles tears become him like jewels.
Anne Rice
To really ask is to open the door to the whirlwind. The answer may annihilate the question and the questioner.
Anne Rice
None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are.
Anne Rice
Oh, but when love is reached through suffering, it has a power it can never gain through innocence.
Anne Rice
Because I show you my pain, I do not of necessity love you.
Anne Rice
The thing should have plot and character, beginning, middle and end. Arouse pity and then have a catharsis. Those were the best principles I was ever taught.
Anne Rice
The atheism and nihilism of my earlier years now seems shallow, and even a bit cocky.
Anne Rice
