Anais Nin
Memory is a great betrayer.
Anais Nin

Anais Nin
Death from disillusion is not instantaneous, and there are no mercy killers for the disillusioned.
Anais Nin
I like extravagance. Letters which give the postman a stiff back to carry, books which overflow from their covers, sexuality which bursts the thermometers.
Anais Nin
