Anne Rice Quotes

There’s a virtue,’ Felix said, ‘to listening to a reluctant storyteller. You know that he is in fact diving deep for the salvageable truth Picture Quote #1

Ah, come now. I look like an angel, but I’m not. The old rules of nature encompass many creatures like me. We’re beautiful like the diamond-backed snake, or the striped tiger, yet we’re merciless killers Picture Quote #1

Lestat: I despise you! I ought to destroy you-finish what I started when I made you. Turn you into ashes and sift them through my hands. You know that I could do it! Like that! Like the snap of mortal fingers, I could do it. Burn you as I burnt your little house. And nothing could save you, nothing at all Picture Quote #1

Writers write about what obsesses them. You draw those cards. I lost my mother when I was 14. My daughter died at the age of 6. I lost my faith as a Catholic. When I’m writing, the darkness is always there. I go where the pain is Picture Quote #1

We are not damned. We never were. Who under the sun has the right to damn any living breathing creature? Picture Quote #1

Remember always, he said, that nothing is as precious to us as the magnificent gift of life. Let the moon and the stars always remind you of this-that though we are tiny creatures in this universe, we are filled with life Picture Quote #1

The NRA disgraced itself this morning with a self-serving press event in which they demonized the media and the entertainment industry for gun violence in America, and advocated a national data base for all mentally ill persons. They apparently want armed guards in all American schools, and it seems, armed volunteers as well. Shocking Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Oh Lestat, you deserved everything that’s ever happened to you. You better not die. You might actually go to hell Picture Quote #1

Despair was so familiar to me; it could be banished by the sight of a beautiful mannikin in the window. It could be dispelled by the spectacle of lights surrounding a tower. It could be lifted by the great ghostly shape of St. Patrick’s coming into view. And then despair would come again Picture Quote #1

Once I returned to the Church and began to see the universe as a place that really did incorporate redemption and really tried to understand the implications of there being a God, my identification with the vampires as outcasts, as outsiders and lost souls began to totally wane. It no longer worked for me. I had done it. It had led me to this point Picture Quote #1

A perfect world or a world destroyed, one or the other- someday will come the end of hell Picture Quote #1

Actors and actresses make magic,’ I said. ‘They make things happen on the stage; they invent; they create Picture Quote #1

I assume as a child Jesus had to learn how to do carpentry, learn Torah, learn all the things a human child had to learn. If He was human in all ways except that He did not sin, this must have been the case Picture Quote #1

I can’t believe the world was created in six days. I do not take Genesis or Revelation literally. I AM OUT. I am alone. I am an outsider for Christ. I will study my Bible, and pray to God in private and alone. I have no other choice Picture Quote #1

There is one purpose to life and one only: to bear witness to and understand as much as possible of the complexity of the world- its beauty, its mysteries, its riddles Picture Quote #1

I’d thought I knew what beauty was in women; but she’d surpassed all the language I had for it Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

My greatest sin has always been that I have a wonderful time being myself Picture Quote #1

Obsession led me to write. It’s been that way with every book I’ve ever written. I become completely consumed by a theme, by characters, by a desire to meet a challenge Picture Quote #1

The library furnished our dreams, helped us shape our ambitions, made up people of books and ideas and grand designs Picture Quote #1

You reach deep down and bring up what feels absolutely authentic to you as you move along with the book, but you don’t know everything about it. You can’t Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Go ahead, throw this book away. Spit on me. Revile me. I dare you. Cast me out of your intellectual orbit. Throw me out of your backpack. Pitch me in the airport trash bin.
