Anais Nin
To withhold from living is to die ... the more you give of yourself to life the more life nourishes you.
Anais Nin
We write to taste life twice, in the moment, and in retrospection.
Anais Nin
I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me. His will, his pleasure, his desire, his life, his work, his sexuality the touchstone, the command, my pivot. I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically but as a woman, oh, God, as a woman I want to be dominated
Anais Nin
Perfection is static, And I am in full progress.
Anais Nin
Memory is a great betrayer.
Anais Nin
Introspection is a devouring monster.
Anais Nin
The source of sexual power is curiosity, passion. You are watching its little flame die of asphyxiation.
Anais Nin
