Interview with The Vampire 1994
"E assim, estendemos a mão para o caos furioso, apanhamos alguma coisa pequena e brilhante e nos agarramos a ela, dizendo para nós mesmos que ela tem significado, que o mundo é bom, que não somos a encarnação do mal e que no fim iremos pra casa."
—Lestat de Lioncourt - A História do Ladrão de Corpos (Anne Rice)
"He has a sleeping mind in his heart and an insatiable personality."
"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."

“You know, we were lovers, she and I, as surely as a mortal man and woman ever were.”
“Of course, I know,” he said.
I smiled. I kissed him suddenly, thrilled by the warmth of him, the soft pliant feel of his near human skin. God, how I hated the whiteness of my fingers touching him, fingers that could have crushed him now effortlessly. I wondered if he even guessed.
There was so much I wanted to say to him, to ask him. Yet I couldn’t find the words really, or a way to begin. He had always had so many questions; and now he had his answers, more answers perhaps than he could ever have wanted; and what had this done to his soul? Stupidly I stared at him. How perfect he seemed to me as he stood there waiting with such kindness and such patience. And then, like a fool, I came out with it.
“Do you love me now?” I asked.
He smiled; oh, it was excruciating to see his face soften and brighten simultaneously when he smiled. “Yes,” he said.
