Anne Rice

Anne Rice
It's an awful truth that suffering can deepen us, give a greater lustre to our colours, a richer resonance to our words. That is, if it doesn't destroy us, if it doesn't burn away the optimism and the spirit, the capacity for visions, and the respect for simple yet indispensable things.
Anne Rice
Would that death were like this. Would that one would sleep and sleep and sleep forever.
Anne Rice

Anne Rice
Go where the pain is, go where the pleasure is.
Anne Rice
