I wish we had more visible Christian and Catholic leaders who talked about love.

Come on, say it again. I'm a perfect devil. Tell me how bad I am. It makes me feel so good!

Don't be a fool for the Devil, darling.

Claudia... you've been a very very naughty little girl.

Oh Lestat, you deserved everything that's ever happened to you. You better not die. You might actually go to hell.

I am the Vampire Lestat. I'm immortal more or less. The light of the sun, the sustained heat of an intense fire-these things might destroy me. But then again, they might not.

Nothing in all the world is so nonsensical and contradictory, save mortals, that is, who live in the grip of the superstitions of the past.

One moment the world is as it is. The next, it is something entirely different. Something it has never been before.

-You are on the verge of being truly mad. -No, not at all. Look at me. I can tie my shoelaces. See?

None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are.

Give me a man or woman who has read a thousand books and you give me an interesting companion. Give me a man or woman who has read perhaps three and you give me a very dangerous enemy indeed.

In order to get beyond racism, we must first take account of race. There is no other way. And in order to treat some persons equally, we must treat them differently.

Life cannot subsist in society but by reciprocal concessions.

As long as in love there is "you" and "me," love is not fully kindled.

Bold knaves thrive without one grain of sense, But good men starve for want of impudence.

When I saw for the first time by the Word of God that sickness was not the Will of God, everything in my nature rose up to defeat the will of the devil.

At the core of all successful societies are procedures for blocking the advancement of bad men

I don't believe in outing people. It's up to the individual, but there's nothing wrong putting the pressure on.

I like to have fun, but I don't think of myself as being funny. But I'm a big jokester, so I make fun of myself a lot!

There's lots of fun in this world, after all. And if there isn't, there is in the next. And we're going there, sure.

Did we perfectly know the state of our own condition, and what was most proper for us, we might have reason to conclude our prayers not heard if not answered.
