My favorite Anais Nin Quotes ...

A leaf fluttered in through the window this morning, as if supported by the rays of the sun, a bird settled on the fire escape, joy in the task of coffee, joy accompanied me as I walked.



And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.



Each friend represents a world in us, a world not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born.



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


Life is a process of becoming, a combination of states we have to go through. Where people fail is that they wish to elect a state and remain in it. This is a kind of death.



Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don't know how to replenish it's source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.



People living deeply have no fear of death.
