Anais Nin
It's all right for a woman to be, above all, human. I am a woman first of all.
Anais Nin
This great handsomeness I took into myself later when he desired me, but I took it as one breathes air, or swallows a snowflake, or yields to the sun.
Anais Nin
I have this weird obsession about buying books and looking at them with a smile, even if I won't read them soon. At least they are mine now.
Anais Nin
There is a fissure in my vision and madness will always rush through.
Anais Nin
I know no joy as great as a moment of rushing into a new love, no ecstasy like that of a new love.
Anais Nin
I want to fall in love in such a way that the mere sight of a man, even a block away from me, will shake and pierce me, will weaken me, and make me tremble and soften and melt.
