Anais Nin Quotes

What you burnt, broke, and tore is still in my hands. I am the keeper of fragile things and I have kept of you what is indissoluble Picture Quote #1

I walked into my own book, seeking peace. It was night, and I made a careless movement inside the dream; I turned too brusquely the corner and I bruised myself against my madness Picture Quote #1

I am quite wiling to confide entirely in human being, except that at some moment or another human beings get preoccupied, moody, busy, inattentive, and there come an end to the interest, and this never happens in a journal! Picture Quote #1

There is a resemblance between men and women, not a contrast. When a man begins to recognize his feeling, the two unite. When men accept the sensitive side of themselves, they come alive Picture Quote #1

I sleep with my feet on moss carpets, my branches in the cotton of the clouds Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Stories are the only enchantment possible, for when we begin to see our suffering as a story, we are saved Picture Quote #1

I take pleasure in my transformations. I look quiet and consistent, but few know how many women there are in me Picture Quote #1

At first she beckoned and lured one into her world; then, she blurred the passageways, confused all the images, as if to elude detection Picture Quote #1

All of my creation is an effort to weave a web of connection with the world: I am always weaving it because it was once broken Picture Quote #1

Reality doesn’t impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls Picture Quote #1

The real wonders of life lie in the depths. Exploring the depths for truths is the real wonder which the child and the artist know: magic and power lie in truth Picture Quote #1

We celebrate peace. Yet we pay no attention to the ways of curing aggression in human beings. And when one sees in psychoanalysis hostility disappearing as people conquer their fears, one wonders if the cure is not there Picture Quote #1

I am in great terror of your understanding by which you penetrate into my world; and then I stand revealed and I have shared my kingdom with you Picture Quote #1

Strange, isn’t it, that no chemical will give a human being the iridescence that illusions have given them? Give me your hat Picture Quote #1

This morning I got up to begin this book I coughed. Something was coming out of my throat: it was strangling me. I broke the thread which held it and yanked it out. I went back to bed and said: I have just spat out my heart Picture Quote #1

Innocence was gone from all our acts. Our habitual state of rebellion became a serious political crime Picture Quote #1

The impetus to grow and live intensely is so powerful in me I cannot resist it. I will work, I will love my husband, but I will fulfill myself Picture Quote #1

Then at certain moments I remember one of his words and I suddenly feel the sensual woman flaring up, as if violently caressed. I say the word to myself, with joy. It is at such a moment that my true body lives Picture Quote #1

Where the myth fails, human love begins. Then we love a human being, not our dream, but a human being with flaws Picture Quote #1

He has, like me, a sense of smell. I let him inhale me, then I slip away Picture Quote #1

I’m restless. Things are calling me away. My hair is being pulled by the stars again Picture Quote #1

I can’t let you go now. I want to go places with you; obscure little places, just to be able to say: here I came with her Picture Quote #1

I want to love you wildly. I don’t want words, but inarticulate cries, meaningless, from the bottom of my most primitive being, that flow from my belly like honey. A piercing joy, that leaves me empty, conquered, silenced Picture Quote #1

My mission, should I choose to accept it, is to find peace with exactly who and what I am. To take pride in my thoughts, my appearance, my talents, my flaws and to stop this incessant worrying that I can’t be loved as I am Picture Quote #1

I want to fall in love in such a way that the mere sight of a man, even a block away from me, will shake and pierce me, will weaken me, and make me tremble and soften and melt Picture Quote #1

A war regarded as inevitable or even probable, and therefore much prepared for, has a very good chance of eventually being fought Picture Quote #1

I know why families were created with all their imperfections. They humanize you. They are made to make you forget yourself occasionally, so that the beautiful balance of life is not destroyed Picture Quote #1

I want to do things so wild with you that I don’t know how to say them Picture Quote #1

Love men and women not for their strength but their softness, not for their fullness but their hunger, not for their plenty but their need Picture Quote #1
