More quotes by Anne Rice
Oh to have you with me, to have you here, not to be alone, but to be with you, my beauty, you of all souls! You.
Anne Rice
Don't you see? It is a new age. It requires a new evil. And I am that new evil.
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
It is very disturbing to see people use Christianity and the Bible to support a certain political agenda, especially when one cannot connect that agenda with the authentic teachings of Christ.
Anne Rice
When I'm writing, the darkness is always there. I go where the pain is.
Anne Rice
To write something, you have to risk making a fool of yourself.
Anne Rice
Give me a man or woman who has read a thousand books and you give me an interesting companion. Give me a man or woman who has read perhaps three and you give me a very dangerous enemy indeed.
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
I know nothing of God or the Devil. I have never seen a vision nor learned a secret that would damn or save my soul.
Anne Rice
For always in her there was a dark place full of despair and a great dividing force to make meaning because there was none.
Anne Rice
The vampires have always been metaphors for me. They've always been vehicles through which I can express things I have felt very, very deeply.
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
Aren't there gradations of evil? Is evil a great perilous gulf into which one falls with the first sin, plummeting to the depth?
Anne Rice
Cities have distinct personalities. It's a matter of knowing it.
Anne Rice
So we reach into the raging chaos, and we cling to it, and we tell ourselves it has meaning, and that the world is good, and we are not evil, and we will all go home in the end.
Anne Rice
His blood coursed through my veins sweeter than life itself. And as it did, Lestats words made sense to me. I knew peace only when I killed and when I heard his heart in that terrible rhythm, I knew again what peace could be.
Anne Rice
You look good to me, you damnable little devil, good to embrace and good to love.
Anne Rice
Everyone is a potential naked slave to you once you become a trainer.
Anne Rice
We're frightened of what makes us different.
Anne Rice
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
