A Quote by Anne Rice

He had never expected death to be this quiet, this secretive, this easy. — © Anne Rice
He had never expected death to be this quiet, this secretive, this easy.
It was something I never expected to - I never expected the book would sell in the first place. I was hoping for a quick and merciful death at the hands of the reviewers.
He found himself remembering how on one summer morning they two had started from New York in search of happiness. They had never expected to find it, perhaps, yet in itself that quest had been happier than anything he expected forevermore. Life, it seemed, must be a setting up of props around one - otherwise it was disaster. There was no rest, no quiet. He had been futile in longing to drift and dream, no one drifted except to maelstroms, no one dreamed, without his dreams becoming fantastic nightmares of indecision and regret.
Life is full of all sorts of things, and I never expected to be a part of this. I never expected to be a model. I never expected to be a stylist. Or a designer. So you never know.
I'm a writer. I never expected to be recognised on the street. I never expected to get that kind of coverage, good or bad. I never expected to sell as many books as I have.
A baby is expected. A trip is expected. News is expected. Forgetfulness is expected. An invitation is expected. Hope is expected. But memories are not expected. They just come.
I never expected it to happen, and it had nothing to do with why I supported [Hillary] Trump, the fact that he was going to [prosecute Hillary Clinton]. If he did it, it was gonna be icing on the cake for me, but I never expected him to do it.
My ancestors had to keep their customs secret for fear of death or persecution, so it's common to be secretive and discreet about Regla de Ocha. But it's my family's spirituality, so I don't want to keep it secret.
Action film is really easy to do, you just get in a car and smash through things and it's called action. The real key is what happens between the action when it's quiet. Loud is easy. Quiet, real hard.
The one certain thing was that death never came at an expected moment.
I've never had it easy in boxing, from day one, never. I've never asked for an easy run.
Imagination is the most powerful tool you have. You learn it from all the greats. The Star Wars films are secretive. Anything J.J. Abrams does is secretive. Those guys haven't done too poorly.
My whole life, I've felt like I've always had to prove myself. It's never been easy, as easy as others who are in my position have had it.
I certainly never expected to be a professional actor. I never expected to be in movies. I thought I would probably become a teacher.
Death by hanging... well, in view of the whole situation, I never expected anything different. It's all right.
I've had far more success than I ever expected. But I do think that a lot of successful artists have an aim to be successful, even if they don't outwardly sound like it. I never really expected success.
