More quotes by Anais Nin
You don't find love, it finds you. It's got a little bit to do with destiny, fate, and what's written in the stars.
Anais Nin
My trunk, valises and my mind are overpacked.
Anais Nin
Anxiety is love's greatest killer, because it is like the stranglehold of the drowning.
Anais Nin
I believe that in judging our actions we are more severe than professional judges. We judge not only our actions, but our thoughts, our intentions, our secret curses, our hidden hate.
Anais Nin
A war regarded as inevitable or even probable, and therefore much prepared for, has a very good chance of eventually being fought.
Anais Nin
I want to live darkly and richly in my femaleness.
Anais Nin
... America is the greatest humiliator in existence. It is always cultivating the power you get from humiliating others.
Anais Nin
People who want a sane, static, measurable world take the first aspect of an event or person and stick to it, with an almost self-protective obstinacy, or by a natural limitation of their imaginations. They do not indulge in either deepening or magnifying.
Anais Nin
Also, I do not like the companionship of women. They are petty and personal. They hang on to their mysteries and secrets, they act and pretend. I like the character of men better.
Anais Nin
... only love begets love.
Anais Nin
I sleep with my feet on moss carpets, my branches in the cotton of the clouds.
Anais Nin
The dream has to be translated into reality.
Anais Nin
I gathered poets around me and we all wrote beautiful erotica. As we were condemned to focus only on sensuality, we had violent explosions of poetry. Writing erotica became a road to sainthood rather than to debauchery.
Anais Nin
The inner chambers of the soul are like the photographer's darkroom. Like a laboratory. One cannot stay there all the time or it becomes the solitary cell of the neurotic.
Anais Nin
My first vision of earth was water veiled. I am of the race of men and women who see all things through this curtain of sea and my eyes are the color of water.
Anais Nin
Introspection is a devouring monster. You have to feed it with much material, much experience, many people, many places, many loves, many creations, and then it ceases feeding on you.
Anais Nin
I cheat him, I deceive him, yet the world does not sink in sulphur-colored mists. Madness conquers. I can no longer put my mosaics together. I just cry and laugh.
Anais Nin
The woman will sit eternally in the tall black armchair. I will be the one woman you will never have...excessive living weighs down the imagination: we will not live, we will only write and talk to swell the sails.
Anais Nin
Do not seek the because - in love there is no because, no reason, no explanation, no solutions.
Anais Nin
We write to taste life twice, in the moment, and in retrospection.
Anais Nin
