Anne Rice Quote: “Perhaps this is the only real evil left.”
Anne Rice Quote: “It was haunted; but real hauntings have nothing to do with ghosts finally; they have to do with the menace of memory.”
Anne Rice Quote: “How can so much beauty hide such a bruised and steely heart, and why must I love him, why must I lean in my weariness upon his irresistible yet indomitable strength? Is he not the wizend funeral spirit of a dead man in a child’s clothes?”
Anne Rice Quote: “Vampires always order hot drinks. They aren’t going to drink them; but they can feel the warmth and smell them if they’re hot, and that is so good.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Amazing what the British do with language; the nuances of politeness. The world’s great diplomats, surely.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Curses of vanished elders echoed down on me; too pretty, too soft, too pale, eyes far too full of the Devil, ah, that devilish smile.”
Anne Rice Quote: “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.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I’ve lived all these years among those who create nothing and change nothing,′ I said. ‘Actors and musicians-they’re saints to me.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Pure evil has no real place. And that means, doesn’t it, that I have no place. Except, perhaps, in the art that repudiates evil – the vampire comics, the horror novels, the old gothic tales – or in the roaring chants of the rock stars who dramatize the battles against evil that each mortal fights within himself.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Lestat might be the hero of the Vampire Chronicles, but this one, Louis, was the tragic heart. Yet he seemed at long last to have achieved a kind of peace with the ghastly realities of his existence and the existence of all those around him who outranked him in power but not necessarily in insight or wisdom.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I clasped his face in both hands as I kissed him. “You don’t know how I need you, how I love you, how I always have,” I whispered in his ear. Maybe he would find me more charming on account of what’s befallen me – the unexpected horror I’ve seen, the inevitable pain I’ve endured. It’s an awful truth that suffering can deepen us, give a greater luster 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.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Life itself must be founded upon the infinite possibility for choice and accident. And if we cannot prove that it is, we must believe that it is. We must believe that we can change, that we can control, that we can direct our own destinies.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I feel the darkness near me; I feel the light shining. And more keenly I feel the contrast between the two.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I thought The Shining was just absolutely wonderful. Stephen King reaches all kinds of people. In the beginning he was just dismissed out of hand, which was terrible.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I drank, sucking the blood out of the holes, experiencing for the first time since infancy the special pleasure of sucking nourishment, the body focused with the mind upon one vital source.”
Anne Rice Quote: “And I realized that I’d tolerated him this long because of self-doubt.”
Anne Rice Quote: “You understood my soul, I thought, and now others are coming only to sack my heart of all its riches. What am I to do? We argued, yes, you and I, but it was with loving respect, was it not? I cannot endure without you. Please come to me, from wherever you are.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I lived like a man who wanted to die but who had no courage to do it himself.”
Anne Rice Quote: “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 Quote: “I have lived lies. I have done it again and again. I live lies because I cannot endure the weakness of anger, and I cannot admit the irrationality of love.-Marius.”
Anne Rice Quote: “And we are this, this only, this ecstasy that flesh can give to flesh.”
Anne Rice Quote: “My last sunrise,’ said the vampire. ‘That morning, I was not yet a vampire. And I saw my last sunrise.”
Anne Rice Quote: “A summer rain had left the night clean and sparkling with drops of water. I leaned against the end pillar of the gallery, my head touching the soft tendrils of a jasmine which grew there in a constant battle with a wisteria, and I thought of what lay before me throughout the world and throughout time, and resolved to go about it delicately and reverently, learning that from each thing which would take me best to another.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Stephen King in many respects is a wonderful writer. He has made a contribution. People in the future will be able to pick up Stephen King’s books and learn a lot about who we were by reading those books.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I was good and bad, but never wicked.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Without memory there can be no insight. Without love, there can be no appreciation.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Let the spirits witness: for theirs is the knowledge of the future – both what it would be, and what I will: You are the Queen of the Damned, that’s what you are! Evil is your only destiny. But at your greatest hour, it is I who will defeat you. Look well on my face. It is I who will bring you down.”
Anne Rice Quote: “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 Quote: “And what constitutes evil, real evil, is the taking of a single human life.”
Anne Rice Quote: “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 Quote: “He’s picked you because you are careless and flamboyant and vain. Oh, I don’t say this to hurt you. Truly I don’t. You long to be seen and approached and understood and to get into mischief, to stir everything up and see if it won’t boil over and if God won’t come down and grab you by.”
Anne Rice Quote: “In a daze, I saw him stretch out his arms to me. It struck me that never in all my life had I beheld anyone quite as beautiful as he was, and it was not merely the sum of his physical attributes, it was the pure serenity, the essence that I perceived with my innermost soul. A lovely euphoria came over me as he spoke.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Artists are meant to be madmen, to disturb and shock us.”
Anne Rice Quote: “For the moment, death is spoiling life for you, that’s all. But life is more important than death.”
Anne Rice Quote: “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 Quote: “I wasn’t part of the world that cringed at such things. And with a smile, I realized that I was of that dark ilk that makes others cringe. Slowly and with great pleasure, I laughed.”
Anne Rice Quote: “I don’t believe in anything and that makes me stronger than you think.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Suffering of sentient beings is like decay; it fertilizes the growth of their souls.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Resignation requires will, and will requires decision, and decision requires belief, and belief requires that there is something to believe in!”
Anne Rice Quote: “I am in love with you’, I responded. He laughed the most beguiling and gentle laugh. ‘Of course you are,’ he replied. ‘I understand perfectly because I’m in love with myself. The fact that I’m not transfixed in front of the nearest mirror takes a great deal of self-control.’ It was my turn to laugh.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Can you picture it, this splendid domesticity, dim lamps, the vampire father singing to the vampire daughter? Only the doll had a human face, only the doll.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Your evil is that you cannot be evil. And I shall suffer for it no longer!”
Anne Rice Quote: “I loved words. I love to sing them and speak them and even now, I must admit, I have fallen into the joy of writing them.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Revenge is the concern of those who are at some point or other beaten. I am not beaten, I told myself. No, not beaten. And victory is far more interesting to contemplate than revenge.”
Anne Rice Quote: “It has its dark splendor, to walk the nightmare terrain forever.”
Anne Rice Quote: “The music as always had a dark sweet luster, but it was more than ever like an endless beginning-a theme ever building to a climax which would never come.”
Anne Rice Quote: “For what secrets, what truths had those monstrous creatures of night to give us? What, of necessity, must be their terrible limits, if indeed we were to find them at all? What can the damned really say to the damned?”
Anne Rice Quote: “Don’t make a religion of reason and logic. Because in the passage of time reason may fail you and when it does, you may find yourself taking refuge in madness.”
Anne Rice Quote: “Nothing was anything until someone defined it. Nothing was inevitable. Nothing was inviolate. Everything existed, perhaps, by the act of faith, and we were always in the midst of creating our world, complete with the trappings of tradition that was nothing more than an invention like all the rest.”
Anne Rice Quote: “And so a ghost of him had been created by her hatred and her rage. It was fading, yet it still stalked her, even here in the safe hallways of her own domain.”
