Paris was a universe whole and entire unto herself, hollowed and fashioned by history so she seemed in this age of Napoleon III with her towering buildings, her massive cathedrals, her grand boulevards and ancient winding medieval streets - as vast and indestructible as nature itself.

I enjoy the Web site a lot and I like being able to talk to my readers. I've always had a very close relationship with them.

Hell's Bells ringing, my secret music.
Anne Rice

We're frightened of what makes us different.
Anne Rice
Image
I no longer represent any organized religion. I'm not Catholic. I'm not Christian. I'm saying this because I have to be an outsider for Christ.
Anne Rice
Image
Let the flesh instruct the mind.
Anne Rice
Image
I know Christianity and I know I have to move away from it and approach Jesus Christ on my own. I have to talk to Him directly and seek His guidance and protection as I seek to make my commitment to Him central to my life.
Anne Rice
Image
It was as if when I looked into his eyes I was standing alone on the edge of the world...on a windswept ocean beach. There was nothing but the soft roar of the waves.
Anne Rice
Image
I lived like a man who wanted to die but who had no courage to do it himself.
Anne Rice
Image
…being an atheist required discipline very like that of being Catholic. One could never yield to the idea of a supernatural authority, no matter how often one might be tempted. To think that a personal God had made the world was to yield to a demonic and superstitious and destructive belief.
Anne Rice
Image
A perfect world or a world destroyed, one or the other- someday will come the end of hell.
Anne Rice
Image
I cannot mislead people into believing that I support organized religion. In Jesus' name, I cannot be complicit with many of the things organized religion does.
Anne Rice
Image
The old gods will bring about vengeance not so much because they exist but because I once honored them.
Anne Rice
Image
Oh, my darling, wish you were here! And my dark soul is happy again, because it does not know how to be anything else for very long, and because the pain is a deep dark sea in which I would drown if I did not sail my little craft steadily over the surface, steadily towards a sun which will never rise.

The world doesn't need any more mediocrity or hedged bets.
Anne Rice
Image
I picture heaven as a vast library, with unlimited volumes to read. And paintings and statues to examine galore. I picture it as a great doorway to learning...rather than one great dull answer to all our questions
Anne Rice
Image
Would that death were like this. Would that one would sleep and sleep and sleep forever.
Anne Rice
Image
We all suffer under a curse, the curse that we know more than we can endure, and there is nothing, absolutely nothing we can do about the force and the lure of this knowledge.
Anne Rice
Image
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.

I love the one who punishes me well.
