Image
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

Anais Nin
Image
I see myself wrapped in lies, which do not seem to penetrate my soul, as if they are not really a part of me. They are like costumes.
Anais Nin
Image
My mission, should I choose to accept it, is to find peace with exactly who and what I am. To take pride in my thoughts, my appearance, my talents, my flaws and to stop this incessant worrying that I can’t be loved as I am.
Anais Nin
Image
Memory is a great betrayer.
Anais Nin
Image
The poet is one who is able to keep the fresh vision of the child alive.
Anais Nin
Image
Life, religion and art all converge in Bali. They have no word in their language for 'artist' or 'art.' Everyone is an artist.
Anais Nin
Image
What everyone forgets is that passion is not merely a heightened sensual fusion but a way of life which produces, as in the mystics, an ecstatic awareness of the whole of life.
Anais Nin
Image
Our love lives because I live.
Anais Nin
Image
I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness.
