I would have done just about anything for him.

I was particularly stunned by the casting of Cruise, who is no more my Vampire Lestat than Edward G. Robinson is Rhett Butler.

I love you still, that's the torment of it. Lestat I never loved. But you! The measure of my hatred is that love. They are the same! Do you know now how much I hate you!

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.

I left Christianity because I wanted to be a moral person. That is why I left. I no longer believed in its lies.

The world changes, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.

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