Evil is a point of view.
ANNE RICE, Interview with the Vampire
Maybe that's what Hell is. You go mad. And all your demons come and get you just as fast as you can think them up.
ANNE RICE, Memnoch the Devil
The worst takes its time to come, and then to pass.
Roman influence seeds itself, sprouting mighty oaks right through the modern forest of computers, digital disks, microviruses and space satellites.
No matter how long we exist, we have our memories. Points in time which time itself cannot erase. Suffering may distort my backward glances, but even to suffering, some memories will yield nothing of ther beauty or their splendor. Rather they remain as hard as gems.
ANNE RICE, Blood and Gold
Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.
ANNE RICE, Interview with the Vampire
You do have a story inside you; it lies articulate and waiting to be written -- behind your silence and your suffering.
Vampires pretending to be humans pretending to be vampires ... How avant-garde!
ANNE RICE, Interview with the Vampire
O, wicked love ... that has so many unnamed components.
ANNE RICE, Beauty's Punishment
A writer can’t know everything about what she writes. It’s impossible. You reach deep down and you 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.
ANNE RICE, interview, Oct. 2, 2003
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.
ANNE RICE, BookPage interview, Nov. 2005
I promised that from now on I would write only for the Lord.
ANNE RICE, Newsweek, Oct. 31, 2005
I love the one who punishes me well.
