More quotes by Anne Desclos
Who I am finally, if not the long silent part of someone, the secret and nocturnal part which has never betrayed itself in public by any thought, word, or deed, but communicates through subterranean depths of the imaginary with dreams as old as the world itself?
Anne Desclos
Men are foolish to expect us to revere them, when, in the end, they amount to almost nothing.
Anne Desclos
Lovers and mystics are familiar with this sense of grandeur, this taste of joy - in abandoning oneself to the will of others.
Anne Desclos

Anne Desclos
Finally a woman confesses! Confess what? What women never allowed themselves to confess. What men always criticized on them: they only obey the blood and everything is sex on them, even the spirit.
Anne Desclos
I wasn't young, I wasn't pretty, it was necessary to find other weapons.
Anne Desclos
The voluntary captive The speechless the prisoner Which I hide in my very depths.
Anne Desclos
I wrote 'The story of O' alone, for Dominique Aury, to interest him, to please him, to occupy him. I wasn't young, nor particularly pretty. I needed something which might interest a man like him.
Anne Desclos
Story of O is a fairy tale for another world, a world where some part of me lived for a long time, a world that no longer exists except between the covers of a book.
Anne Desclos
Is O used by René and Sir Stephen, or does she in fact use them, and...all those irons and chains and obligatory debauchery, to fulfill her own dream-that is, her own destruction and death? And, in some surreptitious way, isn't she in charge of them? Doesn't she bend them to her will?
Anne Desclos
To love is to live on the precipice.
Anne Desclos
