  • The whole theme of Interview with the Vampire was Louis's quest for meaning in a godless world. He searched to find the oldest existing immortal simply to ask, What is the meaning of what we are?
  • I love New Orleans physically. I love the trees and the balmy air and the beautiful days. I have a beautiful house here.
  • I know nothing of God or the Devil. I have never seen a vision nor learned a secret that would damn or save my soul.
  • The vampires have always been metaphors for me. They've always been vehicles through which I can express things I have felt very, very deeply.
  • We need to stop fighting Christian against Christian. I have no time for anything but trying to love other people. That is a full-time job.
  • People who cease to believe in God or goodness altogether still believe in the devil. I don't know why. No, I do indeed know why. Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.
  • I thought The Shining was just absolutely wonderful. Stephen King reaches all kinds of people. In the beginning he was just dismissed out of hand, which was terrible.
  • I want to love all the children of God - Christian, Jew, Moslem, Hindu, Buddhist - everyone. I want to love gay Christians and straight Christians.
  • 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.
