Dialogue between Lestat(the infamous and also famous) and Quinn Blackwood.
"I'm in love with you," I responded.
He laughed with the most beguiling and gentle laugh.
"Ofcourse you are," he replied. "I understand perfectly because I'm in love with myself. The fact that I'm not transfixed in front of the nearest mirror takes a great deal of self-control."
"But your love for me," he went on, "is the reason why you'll tell me all about yourself and Blackwood Farm. Start with the family history and then go into your own."
I sighed. I pondered. I took the plunge.
(if that doesn't make you want to read the book, I don't know what does. Such wonderful vanity.)
Oh look...Lestat. haha.

I read that passage and completely fell in love with Lestat. That was the first Anne Rice book I read, also. Turns out I'd have a completely different opinion of him if I met him on different terms!
