Anais Nin
Image
Sometimes we reveal ourselves when we are least like ourselves.
Anais Nin
Image
Only the united beat of sex and heart together can create ecstasy.

Anais Nin
Image
People living deeply have no fear of death.
Anais Nin
Image

Anais Nin
Image
When I don't write, I feel my world shrinking. I feel I am in a prison. I feel I lose my fire and my color. It should be a necessity, as the sea needs to heave, and I call it breathing.
Anais Nin
Image
I am a winged creature who is too rarely allowed to use its wings. Ecstasies do not occur often enough.
Anais Nin
Image
When I am most deeply rooted, I feel the wildest desire to uproot myself.
Anais Nin
Image
The truly faithless one is the one who makes love to only a fraction of you. And denies the rest.
Anais Nin
Image
Hollywood is a mirage factory.
Anais Nin
Image
How wrong it is for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself.
Anais Nin
Image
I postpone death by living, by suffering, by error, by risking, by giving, by losing.
Anais Nin
