Anne Rice
Image
When we love and want nothing but good for that person, it's one of the greatest gifts we possess.

I am deeply discouraged by Catholic Bishops who say Catholics cannot support same sex marriage in our secular culture.
Anne Rice
Image
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

Goodnight sweet prince, may flights of devils wing you to your rest.
Anne Rice
Image
It was as if the empty nights were made for thinking of him. And sometimes I found myself so vividly aware of him it was as if he had only just left the room and the ring of his voice were still there. And somehow, there was a disturbing comfort in that, and, despite myself, I’d envision his face.
Anne Rice
Image
I allowed myself to forget how totally I had fallen in love with Lestat's iridescent eyes, that I'd sold my soul for a many-colored and luminescent thing, thinking that a highly reflective surface conveyed the power to walk on water.

Evil is always possible. Goodness is a difficulty.
