Memnoch the Devil happen to be my favorite of all The Vampire Chronicles.

The worst takes its time to come, and then to pass.

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.

What I did was take the Jesus of the Gospels, the Son of God, the Son of the Virgin Mary, and sought to make Him utterly believable, a vital breathing character.

Writers, as they gain success, feel like outsiders because writers don't come together in real groups.

That was my nature - going from temptation after temptation, not to sin, but to be redeemed.
