Interview with the Vampire
Sundays 9:00 PM on AMCInterview with the Vampire Quotes
There is one thing about being a vampire that I must fear above all else, and that is loneliness. You can't imagine the emptiness. The void. Stretching out for decades at a time. You take this feeling away from me, Louis. We must stay together. And take precaution. And never part.
Lestat
Louis: I no longer kill. My last victim was in the year 2000.
Molloy: Some Y2K disagreement?
Louis: I want our readers to understand that.
Louis: Vampires are killers. Apex predators whose all-seeing eyes were meant to give them detachment. The ability to see a human life in its entirety. Not with any markest sorrow, but with the thrilling satisfaction of being the end of that life. Having a hand in the divine plan.
Molloy: Don't expect every reader to swallow that one.
Louis: That's the purpose. Our book must be a warning, as much as anything.
Molloy: You were fucking loaded.
Louis: Beyond articulation.
Daniel: I'm assuming you only met at night.
Louis: It's New Orleans. Days are for sleeping off the previous evening's damage.
Daniel: Perfect cover for a vampire.
Louis: I've seen death over and over and over and over again. It's boring.
Daniel: That'll make a great blurb.
You could be a lot of things in New Orleans, but an openly gay negro man was not one of em.
Louis
Don't do that shit here! Not with my family.
Louis [to Lestat]
I was being hunted. And I was completely unaware it was happening.
Louis
Louis: You've grown old, Daniel.
Daniel: Yeah, well, mortality beats a heavy drum.
Lestat: I had plans to make a new life for myself in St. Louis. That was to be my destiny. And now I know I was right, only it turns out the saint is not a city but a handsome man with the most agreeable disposition.
Lily: You're his destiny, Louis.
Lestat: Destined to be very good friends.
