So why must it wound him that the most despairing music is full of beauty? Why must it hurt him and make him cynical and sad and untrusting?
None of us really changes over time. We only become more fully what we are.

That was my nature - going from temptation after temptation, not to sin, but to be redeemed.
Evil is just a point of view
Making a film, I've learned, can be an exhausting process, due to the need for backing, distribution, etc.
For me, places have a tremendous impact. I fall in love with places. All of life seems different in different places.
I love the world the Lord has created; I love the mountains, the rivers, the valleys, the skies. I love the forests, the fields, the flowers. I love the mysteries of evolution and dna and the big bang. I want to know the majesties of the Lord's Creation. I cannot close my eyes to all this. I cannot turn away from science and scientific exploration.
Oh Lestat, you deserved everything that's ever happened to you. You better not die. You might actually go to hell.
I know Christianity; and I know I have to move away from it and approach Jesus Christ on my own. I have to talk to Him directly and seek His guidance and protection as I seek to make my commitment to Him central to my life.

Many Christians believe that the vast majority of those created by God will burn in Hell for All Eternity. Many Christians not only believe the world will end soon, but are looking forward to it. I MUST WALK AWAY FROM IT ALL. IN JESUS' NAME.
