Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish its source.
Anais Nin
Image
What can I do with my happiness? How can I keep it, conceal it, bury it where I may never lose it? I want to kneel as it falls over me like rain, gather it up with lace and silk, and press it over myself again.

Anais Nin
Image
Write. Write until it stops hurting.
Anais Nin
Image
I adore the struggle you carry in yourself. I adore your terrifying sincerity.
Anais Nin

Houses turn to corpses overnight when we cease to live and love in them.
Anais Nin
Image
The one who travels like a lover searching for a new passion is suddenly blessed with new eyes, new ears, new senses.
Anais Nin
Image
I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness. I want a man lying over me, always over me. His will, his pleasure, his desire, his life, his work, his sexuality the touchstone, the command, my pivot. I don’t mind working, holding my ground intellectually, artistically but as a woman, oh, God, as a woman I want to be dominated
