The Vampire Lestat

"So by innocence you mean.. An absense of need for illusions.. A love of and respect for what is right before your eyes."-The Vampire Lestat

"When the world of man collaspes in ruin, beauty will take over... Satanic is merely the name they [mankind] give to the behavior of those who would disrupt the orderly way in which men want to live... And we are truly Satanic in that we follow no law for man's protection."-The Vampire Lestat

I love The Vampire Lestat. It is such a great book. I've been so involved w/the story over the past few days that I read over 200 pages in the last two, and I have just finished it and am now starting on Queen of the Damned. There r such great truths in the Vampire Chronicles that I encourage anyone who is educated and likes philosophy to read them, and besides all that, the plots r great, the writing is great, and the characters really charm u and make u want to learn more about them. God her books r soo good... I am inlove w/them. Just thought I'd share.

"It was the darkness exploded, the darkness molten, and the beauty of it was like the glow of smoldering coals; just enough illumination to show how much darkness there really was."-The Vampire Lestat
