Sign of old age: distress at all leave-takings, all separations. And the sadness of memories, because I’m aware they’re condemned to death Picture Quote #1

Eating, sleeping, cleaning - the years no longer rise up toward heaven, they lie spread out ahead, gray and identical. The battle against dust and dirt is never won. Washing, ironing, sweeping, ferreting out rolls of lint from under wardrobes - all this halting of decay is also the denial of life; for time simultaneously creates and destroys, and only its negative aspect concerns the housekeeper Picture Quote #1

To be oneself, simply oneself, is so amazing and utterly unique an experience that it’s hard to convince oneself so singular a thing happens to everybody Picture Quote #1

I tore myself away from the safe comfort of certainties through my love for truth - and truth rewarded me Picture Quote #1

I like me a little bit more when i'm with you - Love Quotes

I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work - Fail Quotes

It is in great part the anxiety of being a woman that devastates the feminine body Picture Quote #1

I could see no reason for being sad. ItÃ‚Â´s just that it makes me unhappy not to feel happy Picture Quote #1

That the child is the supreme aim of woman is a statement having precisely the value of an advertising slogan Picture Quote #1

You can’t assume the responsibility for everything you do or don’t do Picture Quote #1

There is not a single line in this diary that does not call for a correction or a denial...Yes: throughout these pages I meant what I was writing and I meant the opposite; reading them again I feel completely lost...I was lying to myself. How I lied to myself! Picture Quote #1

That’s what I consider true generosity: You give your all, and yet you always feel as if it costs you nothing Picture Quote #1

The way I approached a question, my habit of mind, the way I looked at things, what I took for granted - all this was myself and it did not seem to me that I could alter it Picture Quote #1

The ideal of happiness has always taken material form in the house, whether cottage or castle; it stands for permanence and separation from the world Picture Quote #1

All the idols made by man, however terrifying they may be, are in point of fact subordinate to him, and that is why he will always have it in his power to destroy them Picture Quote #1
