More quotes by Anne Rice
One moment the world is as it is. The next, it is something entirely different. Something it has never been before.
Anne Rice
Do you know what I think about crying? I think some people have to learn to do it. But once you learn, once you know how to really cry, there's nothing quite like it. I feel sorry for those who don't know the trick. It's like whistling or singing.
Anne Rice
My own funeral, I'd like to be laid out in a coffin in my own house. I would like my coffin to be put in the double parlor, and I would like all the flowers to be white.
Anne Rice
as they die, the ones we love, we lose our witnesses, our watchers, those who know and understand the tiny little meaningless patterns, those words drawn in water with a stick. And there is nothing left but the endless flow.
Anne Rice
What is fear after all? It is indecision. You seek some way to resist, escape. There is none.
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
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.
Anne Rice
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
Vampires pretending to be humans pretending to be vampires ... How avant-garde!
Anne Rice
Evil is a point of view ... God kills, and so shall we indiscriminately ... for no creatures under God are as we are, none so like Him as ourselves. God kills indiscriminately and so shall we. For no creatures under God are as we are none so like him as ourselves.
Anne Rice
God, what is it like to be You and hear all those people all the time everywhere, begging, imploring, calling out for anything and anyone?
Anne Rice
Believe in angels? Then believe in vampires. Believe in me. There are worse things on earth.
Anne Rice
When you make his sandwiches, put a sexy or loving note in his lunch box.
Anne Rice
And what if I never go of my own free will? Will you pitch me from some window so that I must fly or fall? Will you bolt all shutters after me? You had better, because I'll knock and knock and knock until I fall down dead. I'll have no wings that take me away from you.
Anne Rice
To learn and to love, that is what we are here for, any activity which is not grounded in one of these two is a waste of time.
Anne Rice
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.
Anne Rice
Maybe a new religion will rise now. Maybe without it, man will crumble in cynicism and selfishness because he really needs his gods.
Anne Rice
Ignore any loss of nerve, ignore any loss of self-confidence, ignore any doubt or confusion. Move on believing in love, in peace, and harmony, and in great accomplishment. Remember joy isn't a stranger to you. You are winning and you are strong. Love. Love first, love always, love forever.
Anne Rice
My body is no schoolboy.
Anne Rice
Locked together in hatred. But I can't hate you Louis. Louis my love, I was mortal till you gave me your immortal kiss. You became my mother, and my father, and so I'm yours forever. But now it's time to end it, Louis. Now it's time to leave him.
Anne Rice
