Interview With The Vampire: The Movie
Your body's dying. Pay no attention.-Lestat
Evildoers are easier, and they taste better.-Lestat
Lestat: What's wrong, my dear?
Whore: It's a coffin...
Lestat: Yes, it is. Well, then you must be dead.
Louis: Where are we?
Lestat: Where do you think, my idiot friend? We're in a nice, filthy cemetery. Does this make you happy? Is this fitting, proper enough?
Louis: We belong in hell.
Lestat: And what if there is no hell, or they don't want us there? Ever think of that?
Louis: But there was a hell, and no matter where we moved to, I was in it.
Lestat: Merciful death! How you love your precious guilt.
Lestat: Oh Louis, Louis. Still whining Louis. Have you heard enough? I've had to listen to that for centuries.
Lestat: I am afraid, madam, my days are sacrosanct.
Lestat: Lord, what I wouldn't give for a drop of good old-fashioned Creole blood.
Louis: Yankees are not to your taste?
Lestat: Their democratic flavor doesn't suit my palate, Louis.
Lestat: I assume I need no introduction.-To Malloy
Lestat: Claudia, you have been a very, very naughty little girl.
Lestat: There's still life in the old lady yet! -[dancing around with the corpse of Claudia’s mother.]
"You're being morbid!"-Lestat de Lioncourt to Louis de Pointe du Lac
“I’d like to meet the devil some night. I’d chase him from here to the wilds of the Pacific. I am the devil.”-Lestat de Lioncourt
“You whining coward of a vampire who prowls the night killing alley cats and rats and staring for hours at candles as if they were people and standing in the rain like a zombie until your clothes are drenched and you smell like old wardrobe trunks in attics and have the look of a baffled idiot at the zoo.”-Lestat to Louis
“Nonsense, my friend, sheer nonsense. I can look on anything I like. And I rather like looking on crucifixes in particular.”-Louis de Pointe du Lac
“Stop looking at my buttons!” Lestat de Lioncourt—to Louis upon his transformation into a vampire.
“Evil is a point of view. We are immortal. And what we have before us are the rich feasts that conscience cannot appreciate and mortal men cannot know without regret. God kills, and so shall we; indiscriminately. He takes the richest and the poorest, and so shall we; for no creatures under God are as we are, none so like Him as ourselves, dark angels not confined to the stinking limits of hell but wandering His earth and all its kingdoms. I want a child tonight. I am like a mother…I want a child!”-Lestat
“I wanted to be where there was nothing familiar to me. And nothing mattered. And that’s the end of it. There’s nothing else.”-Louis
“Exactly, and consequently if you believe God made Satan, you must realize that all Satan’s power comes from God and that Satan is simply God’s child, and that we are God’s children also. There are no children of Satan, really.”—Armand
“A singer can shatter a glass with the proper high note…but the simplest way for anyone to break a glass is simply to drop it on the floor.”-Marius
“Those clothes. Impossible. I mean, tomorrow night, as they say in the twentieth century, you will lose that sweater and those pants.”-Lestat
“What are you waiting for, the Church to pronounce it a miracle?”-Gabrielle
“Don’t be a fool for the devil, darling! Unless he treats you a damn sight better than the Almighty!”-Lestat
“Can’t always be the living legend.”-Louis
“If I waste this bitch, to use the vernacular, do I waste the rest of us too?”-Gabrielle
“I’ve always been my own teacher. And I must confess I’ve always been my favorite pupil as well.”-Lestat
“You are the damnedest creature! You make me think of the old story about Alexander the Great. He wept when there were no more worlds to conquerr. Will you weep when there are no more rules to break?”-Marius
“Let me mourn just a little while more. Let me create my dark images here, and have the written words for friends. Then later I’ll come to you; I’ll join you all. Maybe I’ll obey the rules. Some of them, anyway, who knows? What are you going to do if I don’t, by the way, and haven’t I asked you this before?”-Lestat
“You’re a perfect devil, Lestat! That’s what you are! You are the devil himself!”-Louis
“I can’t help being a gorgeous fiend. It’s just the card I drew.”-Lestat
“So until we meet again, I am thinking of you always; I love you, I wish you were here…in my arms.”-Lestat
“Goddamn it, do it yourself. You’re five hundred years old and you can’t use a telephone? Read the directions. What are you, an immortal idiot?”-Daniel to Armand
“What do you mean, millions! You throw you clothes away after you wear them, you rent apartments and forget where they are. Do you know what a zip code is, or a tax bracket? I’m the one who buys all the goddamned airline tickets. Millions. How are we going to get millions! Steal another Maserati and be done with it for God’s sakes!”-Daniel to Armand
“Let the spirits witness: for theirs is the knowledge of the future-both what it would be and what I will: You are the Queen of the Damned, that’s what you are! Evil is your only destiny. But at your greatest hour, it is I who will defeat you. Look well on my face. It is I who will bring you down.”-Mekare to Akasha
"What have you done?"-Louis
CONVERSATION:
"Human body! Lestat, you can't become human by simply taking over a human body! You weren't human when you were alive! You were born a monster and you know it. How the hell can you delude yourself like this."-Louis
"I'm going to weep if you don't stop."-Lestat
"Weep. I'd like to see you weep. I've read a great deal about your weeping in the pages of your books but I've never seen you weep with my own eyes."-Louis
"Ah, that makes you out to be a perfect liar," I said furiously. "You described my weeping in your miserable memoir in a scene which we both know did not take place!"-Lestat
