Anne Rice Quotes About Art

Quotes about: Art

• Artists are meant to be madmen, to disturb and shock us.

  Anne Rice

  Art, Shock, Madmen

• In spite of all the refinements of civilization that conspired to make art--the dizzying perfection of the string quartet or the sprawling grandeur of Fragonard's canvases--beauty was savage. It was as dangerous and lawless as the earth had been eons before man had one single coherent thought in his head or wrote codes of conduct on tablets of clay. Beauty was a Savage Garden.

  Anne Rice

  Art, Men, Garden

  Anne Rice (2003). “The vampire Lestat”

• But during all these years I had a vague but persistent desire to return to New Orleans. I never forgot New Orleans. And when we were in tropical places and places of those flowers and trees that grow in Louisiana, I would think of it acutely and I would feel for my home the only glimmer of desire I felt for anything outside my endless pursuit of art.
