Queen of the Damned (2002)

Share this quote on facebook [At start and voice over] There comes a time for every vampire when the idea of eternity becomes momentarily unbearable. Living in the shadows, feeding in the darkness with only your own company to keep, rots into a solitary, hollow existence. Immortality seems like a good idea, until you realize you're going to spend it alone. So I went to sleep, hoping that the sounds of the passing eras would fade out, and a sort of death might happen. But as I lay there, the world didn't sound like the place I had left, but something different. [rock music starts] Better. It became worthwhile to rise again as new gods were born and worshipped. Night and day, they were never alone. I would become one of them. [feeds on pimp] Whether it was that first meal, or a hundred years of rest, I'm not sure. But suddenly I was feeling better than ever. My senses so high they led me straight to the instrument of my resurrection, playing in my old house.

Share this quote on facebook From that moment on, they were my friends, my children, my band. Giving the world a new god... me.

Share this quote on facebook Many times since then I've called for Marius, but there was no answer. Just the endless precession of days, months, years... My teacher left me to my darkest lesson, that in the end, we are alone, and there is nothing but the cold, dark wasteland of eternity.

Share this quote on facebook [in a TV interview cast worldwide, talking to all the vampires listening] Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Share this quote on facebook (To Jessie) Well, I can fix that.

Share this quote on facebook The question provoked an irresistible urge...I am the vampire Lestat. It just rolled out of my mouth. With one simple sentence I had betrayed everything about my kind. Betrayed our code of secrecy.

Share this quote on facebook Maybe I'm trying to resurrect a few old friends. Daring them to come out.

Share this quote on facebook I impressed my maker with my thirst for things. He set out to educate me in the unknown. Taught me all about the world, its hidden history... and about myself

Share this quote on facebook My senses run amok, like a newborn child. And as for my new powers,I was beside myself with the pleasure of it all...

Share this quote on facebook But why must we hide, Marius? We are the powerful, we are the immortal. We should walk fearless in the open!

Share this quote on facebook The faces of my victims haunted me, reminding me of my fate... For nights and nights I played, furious. Never again I would participate in the simple joys of life. I was meant for more than this.

Share this quote on facebook Come, let me show you what it means to live in the light.

Share this quote on facebook Such reverence for mortals! Then you should have left me as one!

Share this quote on facebook This may be painful for a mortal. You're still attached to your skin.

Share this quote on facebook Clever librarian.

Share this quote on facebook Join me or die!

Share this quote on facebook I know that you crave to have the world at your feet. And I have come to give it to you.

Share this quote on facebook I'd like for you to kill her. (To Lestat, regarding Jesse)

Share this quote on facebook See my children, remember your real family, or join hers.

Share this quote on facebook You kill me, you kill yourselves.

Share this quote on facebook Just the same, I'd like you to kill her.

Share this quote on facebook You still dare to challenge me, Maharet?

Share this quote on facebook My children... it warms my blood to see you all gathered, plotting against me.

Share this quote on facebook Come, my love. We have a score to settle.

Share this quote on facebook They believed in nothing, now they are nothing. But you and I will change all that. We will give the world something to believe in.

Share this quote on facebook We live everywhere and anywhere we choose. The world is our garden.

Share this quote on facebook She takes pleasure in only one thing: destroying life.

Share this quote on facebook Appreciate your prey. [While teaching Lestat how to kill]

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: But I never understood until I met you.
Jessie: What do you mean?
Lestat: You’re beautiful to me because you’re human. Your frailty, your short years, your heart; even as you think it’s breaking. All that seems suddenly more precious than anything I’ve ever known.
Jessie: Not as precious as you think.

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: How did you manage to slip through the 50's in red velvet?
Marius: I slept.
Lestat: You didn't miss much.
Marius: ...Elvis.
Lestat: Elvis, yes.

Share this quote on facebook Jesse: Boo.
Lestat: Boo back.

Share this quote on facebook Lifestyle Journalist: Do you have anything you want to say to the other vampires listening out there?
Lestat: Yes, as a matter of fact, I do. Come out, come out, wherever you are.

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: I don't have time for this.
Jessie: All a vampire has is time.
Lestat: Not this one!

Share this quote on facebook Jessie: Thanks.
Lestat: For what?
Jessie: You saved me.
Lestat: How presumptuous.

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: Well, that makes you a very clever librarian, Talamascan. I knew I left that journal somewhere. So, was it a good read?
Jessie: It touched me.
Lestat: Did it now? Don't worry, Jessie. Your kind never satisfied my thirst.

Share this quote on facebook Akasha: You're bold like your music. You lived your life in the open like I did, long ago, when I had a king.
Lestat: Had a king?
Akasha: He's no more. Now you are my consort.

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: A London goth. It's funny. I would have pegged you for a Talamascan.
Jessie: Maybe in another lifetime.
LA Groupie: I'm an a Episcopalian!
Roger: And I'm a friggin Buddhist. Uh, Lestat...
Lestat: Roger, would you take our little Episcopalian back to church?

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: So, you know Marius?
Jessie: I know a lot of things.
Lestat: Not how to stay alive, apparently.
Jessie: O, I guess we have that in common, though I think I'm a little ahead of the race, here.
Lestat: Well, I can fix that.
Jessie: Your song "Redeemer" is about the girl with the violin?
Lestat: Is it. And what else do you think you know?
Jessie: You want...
Lestat: What do I want?
Jessie: You yearn...
Lestat: What do I yearn... what do I yearn...
Jessie: To walk with the living... out of the cold dark waste land of eternity.
Lestat: Well, that makes you a very clever librarian Talamascan. I knew I left that journal somewhere.

Share this quote on facebook Lestat: Akasha!
Akasha: Why so surprised, my love. You've called, I've come.
Lestat: My love?

Share this quote on facebook Marius: In all those years I've kept them not once have they moved.
Lestat: Until tonight, and she chose me.
Marius: I chose you!

Share this quote on facebook Club Vampire: You like him do you?
Akasha: He reminds me of someone.
Club Vampire: Well all he's going to remind you of is a pile of bones. We're going to dismember him, bleed him dry.
Akasha: Really? Is that what you're going to do?

Share this quote on facebook David Talbot: Can I ask...?
Jessie: What's it like?
David Talbot: Yes.
Jessie: Do you want to find out?
David Talbot: Me? No, no - I'm too old to live forever.

Share this quote on facebook [Maharet has just become a living statue]
Armand: She drank Akasha's last drop. She took Akasha's death into herself.
Marius: No, she's not dead. She sleeps.

Share this quote on facebook Journalist: Yes, but these other vampires, aren't they going to be pissed off at you giving away their secrets?
Lestat: Mmmmm... I imagine they are... Yes...!

Share this quote on facebook It's definitely fun to explore that side of yourself and that side of yourself that you keep hidden in your everyday life because you know you're not supposed to go there unless it's absolutely necessary

Share this quote on facebook I wanted to, like, grab her off the screen and sit her right down next to me but couldn't,

Share this quote on facebook So I was never worried about comparisons or intimidated by Tom Cruise doing this because it's like the rock 'n' roll, tongue-in-cheek version.
