Quote
She makes use of the soft of the bread for a napkin. She falls asleep at times with shoes on, on unmade beds. When a little money comes in, June buys delicacies, strawberries in the winter, caviar and bath salts.

More quotes by Anais Nin
notes fly so much farther than words. There is no other way to reach the infinite.
Anais Nin
I love your silences, they are like mine.
Anais Nin
What a mystery this is, desire. The love sickness, the sensitivity, the obsession, the flutter of the heart, the ebb and flow of the blood. There is no drug and no alcohol to equal it.
Anais Nin
We don't have a language for the senses. Feelings are images, sensations are like musical sounds.
Anais Nin
I reserve the right to love many different people at once, and to change my prince often.
Anais Nin
In my childhood diary I wrote: “I have decided that it is better not to love anyone, because when you love people, then you have to be separated from them, and that hurts too much.
Anais Nin
The self is merely the lens through which we see others and the world.
Anais Nin
The personal, if it is deep enough, becomes universal, mythical, symbolic.
Anais Nin
It is difficult to live with the pure. They do not condemn you they forgive you. This forgiveness is more terrible than a judgment.
Anais Nin
The one who travels like a lover searching for a new passion is suddenly blessed with new eyes, new ears, new senses.
Anais Nin
Ordinary life does not interest me.
Anais Nin
We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are. Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage People living deeply have no fear of death.
Anais Nin
There is not one big cosmic meaning for all, there is only the meaning we each give to our life, an individual meaning, an individual plot, like an individual novel, a book for each person.
Anais Nin
I stopped loving my father a long time ago. What remained was the slavery to a pattern.
Anais Nin
The source of sexual power is curiosity, passion. You are watching its little flame die of asphyxiation.
Anais Nin
Because history is only an aggregate of personal hostilities, personal prejudices, personal blindness and irrationality, there are times when we have to live against it.
Anais Nin
When we blindly adopt a religion, a political system, a literary dogma, we become automatons. We cease to grow.
Anais Nin
Where the myth fails, human love begins. Then we love a human being, not our dream, but a human being with flaws.
Anais Nin
You carry away with you a reflection of me, a part of me. I dreamed you I wished for your existence. You will always be a part of my life. If I love you, it must be because we shared, at some moment, the same imaginings, the same madness, the same stage.
Anais Nin
When I cannot bear outer pressures anymore, I begin to put order in my belongings...As if unable to organize and control my life, I seek to exert this on the world of objects.
