My efforts with Hollywood are like things written in water.
Anne Rice
Image
Suffering of sentient beings is like decay it fertilizes the growth of their souls.
Anne Rice
Image
When we love and want nothing but good for that person, it's one of the greatest gifts we possess.
Anne Rice
Image
The world changes, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.
Anne Rice
Image
I can't believe the world was created in six days. I do not take Genesis or Revelation literally. I AM OUT. I am alone. I am an outsider for Christ. I will study my Bible, and pray to God in private and alone. I have no other choice.
Anne Rice

Life is a tragedy, one way or another. What is certain is that you die.
Anne Rice
Image
I think love can save the world. When we love, we completely recognize the value of the other.
Anne Rice
Image
But death we are, and death we've always been.
Anne Rice

I don't believe in hell. The idea that a supreme being would make hell is ridiculous. An eternity of pain that results in no learning, reformation or rebirth is a nauseating idea. It's one of the reasons I left Christianity. I simply could not accept that version of God.

There's no way to cheat a sensualist like me, somebody who can die laughing for hours over the pattern of the carpet in a hotel lobby.
Anne Rice
Image
I left Christianity because I wanted to be a moral person. That is why I left. I no longer believed in its lies.

Pride is the parent of destruction pride eats the mind and the heart and the soul alive.
Anne Rice
Image
I'm hoping what all sentient beings hope ... that somehow I'm part of something larger than myself, in which I play a role, an actual role that is somehow intended and meaningful.
Anne Rice
Image
Obsession led me to write. It's been that way with every book I've ever written. I become completely consumed by a theme, by characters, by a desire to meet a challenge.
Anne Rice
Image
I am deeply discouraged by Catholic Bishops who say Catholics cannot support same sex marriage in our secular culture.
Anne Rice
Image
I resolved to move just a little bit more slowly through the world, to look around myself with greater care, and to try to remain conscious of all that was going on around me at all times.
Anne Rice

The one thing you share with every mortal is death.
Anne Rice
Image
You know nothing... And suppose the vampire who made you knew nothing, and the vampire who made that vampire knew nothing, and the vampire before him knew nothing, and so it goes back and back, nothing proceeding from nothing, until there is nothing! And we must live with the knowledge that there is no knowledge.

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.

But don't you see, all human decisions are made like this. Do you think the mother knows what will happen to the child in her womb? Dear God, we are lost, I tell you. What does it matter if you give it to me and it's wrong! There is no wrong! There is only desperation, and I would have it! I want to live forever with you.
