More quotes by Anne Rice
What I did was take the Jesus of the Gospels, the Son of God, the Son of the Virgin Mary, and sought to make Him utterly believable, a vital breathing character.
Anne Rice
Who knows what the hell a government is or what the hell a government does.
Anne Rice
Obviously, a writer can't know everything about what she writes. It's impossible.
Anne Rice
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.
Anne Rice
The prince is never going to come. Everyone knows that and maybe sleeping beauty's dead.
Anne Rice

Anne Rice
I can’t help being a gorgeous fiend. It’s just the card I drew.
Anne Rice
You are alone when something like this happens. Doesn't matter how many people love you and want to help you. You are alone. When Marchent died, she was alone.
Anne Rice
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
It seems an insult to the night to speak of purpose and intent, when this common moment is so brimming full of blessed design tranquility. All things follow their course.
Anne Rice
No matter how rudely someone treats you, remain kind. Walking away at peace with yourself is worth it.
Anne Rice
You think I live in the past. You don't understand that I actually change with every era, I always have as best I can
Anne Rice
Your love to others, and their love for you, that the increase of love in life itself around you, is what matters.
Anne Rice
It was as if this night were only one of thousands of nights, world without end, night curving into night to make a great arching line of which I couldn’t see the end, a night in which I roamed alone under cold, mindless stars.
Anne Rice
In the name of Christ, I refuse to be anti-gay. I refuse to be anti-feminist. I refuse to be anti-artificial birth control. I refuse to be anti-Democrat. I refuse to be anti-secular humanism. I refuse to be anti-science. I refuse to be anti-life. In the name of Christ, I quit Christianity and being Christian. Amen.
Anne Rice
That morning I was not yet a vampire, and I saw my last sunrise. I remember it completely, and yet I can't recall any sunrise before it. I watched the whole magnificence of the dawn for the last time as if it were the first. And then I said farewell to sunlight, and set out to become what I became.
Anne Rice
Every moment must be first known and then savored.
Anne Rice
I was a newborn vampire, weeping at the beauty of the night.
Anne Rice
Consequently, if you believe God made Satan, you must realize that all Satan's power comes from God and so that Satan is simply God's child, and that we are God's children also. There are no children of Satan, really.
