The self is merely the lens through which we see others and the world.
Anais Nin

Anais Nin
We write to taste life twice, in the moment, and in retrospection.
Anais Nin
I seek the real stuff of life. Profound drama.
Anais Nin
I reserve the right to love many different people at once, and to change my prince often.
Anais Nin
One handles truths like dynamite.
Anais Nin
The obstacle became his alibi for weakness.
Anais Nin
