How about it's over 4 thousands billions years old and burning bright, you pretentious twat?

Seriously that's one of the stupidest "lines" ever written...

So called Interview with the Vampire tv show

I believe the proper title should be "Two and Half Pretentious Buffoons in the City". It has nothing to do with Anne Rice's original material. Period. "Girlies", if you really want a quality queer tv show - with some actual merit - with steamy and "Lestatish" character...Watch "Queer as a Folk" (American edition). Okay? lol

I need it to really sink in that between the dog and the very young human, both of them are experiencing a kind of joy and delight they literally did not know was even possible before this.

That baby is very young and the dog has no instincts about the springy rubbery environments its ancestors didn’t encounter because they don’t exist. How rare is it, how splendid, to watch two souls on this Earth, so different and yet so alike in their joint delight over a source of joy that they’ve never experienced before

If you really want to escape the things that harass you, what you’re needing is not to be in a different place but to be a different person.

Others obey their own lead, follow their own impulses. Don’t be distracted. Keep walking. Follow your own nature, and follow Nature — along the road they share.

“That’s not prejudice. it’s just observation”

I think the majority of the VC fandom is like a stereotypical Eton collage graduate buffoon: with a stick of self-importance and omnipotence deep up his arse. Also, with the false notion of being progressive, liberal, and creative. And before anyone from you, “Lovelies”, jump to my throat, let me quote Dylan Moran...”it’s not prejudice. It’s just observation”. lol
