What I cannot love, I overlook. Is that real friendship? - Anaïs Nin

"Throw your dreams into space like a kite, and you do not know what it will bring back, a new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country."

"How wrong is it for a woman to expect the man to build the world she wants, rather than to create it herself?"

"I reserve the right to love many different people at once, and to change my prince often."

"The personal life deeply lived always expands into truths beyond itself."

"One discovers that destiny can be diverted, that one does not have to remain in bondage to the first wax imprint made on childhood sensibilities. Once the deforming mirror has been smashed, there is a possibility of wholeness. There is a possibility of joy."
