If you don’t love Lestat, you’re wrong.

I feel in myself the desire to murder… I see myself screaming when it happens,I see my face twisted into grimaces and I hear bellowing coming out of me. My mouth is a perfect O, and shrieks, cries, come out of me.
“The Vampire Lestat” — Anne Rice
"Love me. You have destroyed everything! But if you love me, it can all be restored in a new form. Love me."
"None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are."
"Shortly after reaching the colony, I fell fatally in love with Louis, a young dark-haired bourgeois planter, graceful of speech and fastidious of manner, who seemed in his cynicism and self-destructiveness the very twin of Nicolas. He had Nicki’s grim intensity, his rebelliousness, his tortured capacity to believe and not to believe, and finally to despair. Yet Louis gained a hold over me far more powerful than Nicolas ever had. Even in his cruelest moments, Louis touched the tenderness in me, seducing me with his staggering dependence, his infatuation with my every gesture and every spoken word. But I loved him, plain and simple. And it was out of the desperation to keep him, to bind him closer to me at the most precarious of moments, that I committed the most selfish and impulsive act of my entire life among the living dead. It was the crime that was to be my undoing; the creation with Louis and for Louis of Claudia, a stunningly beautiful vampire child."

Lestat: I missed your backside, Louis!!
Louis: … -.-# Screw you…
"Also there was something vampiric about rock music. It must have sounded supernatural even to those who don’t believe in the supernatural. I mean the way the electricity could stretch a single note forever; the way harmony could be layered upon harmony until you felt yourself dissolving in the sound. So eloquent of dread it was, this music. The world just didn’t have it in any form before."
—Lestat de Lioncourt (The Vampire Lestat - Anne Rice)
"I was enchanted by the world of rock music - the way the singers could scream of good and evil, proclaim themselves angels or devils, and mortals would stand up and cheer. Sometimes they seemed the pure embodiment of madness. And yet it was technologically dazzling, the intricacy of their performance. It was barbaric and cerebral in a way that I don’t think the world of ages past had ever seen."
—Lestat de Lioncourt - The Vampire Lestat (Anne Rice)

“Louis was a sufferer, a thing that loved mortals even more than I did. And I wonder sometimes if I didn’t look to Louis to punish me for what had happened to Nicki, if I didn’t create Louis to be my conscience and to mete out year in and year out the penance I felt I deserved.” - Lestat (The Vampire Lestat)
