I only believe in fire. Life....

I only believe in fire. Life. Fire. Being myself on fire I set others on fire. Never death. Fire and life.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

The real wonders of life lie ...

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.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

The only transformer and alch...

The only transformer and alchemist that turns everything into gold is love. The only magic against death, aging, ordinary life, is love.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

What everyone forgets is that...

What everyone forgets is that passion is not merely a heightened sensual fusion but a way of life which produces, as in the mystics, an ecstatic awareness of the whole of life.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

For you and for me the highes...

For you and for me the highest moment, the keenest joy, is not when our minds dominate but when we lose our minds, and you and I both lose it in the same way, through love.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

Tranquillity is contagious, peace is contagious. One only thinks of the contagiousness of illness, but there is the contagion of serenity and joy.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

My life is not possible to te...

My life is not possible to tell. I change every day, change my patterns, my concepts, my interpretations. I am a series of moods and sensations. I play a thousand roles. I weep when I find others play them for me. My real self is unknown. My work is merely an essence of this vast and deep adventure.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

I am an excitable person who ...

I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. 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.

Don't let one cloud obliterate the whole sky.

it was while helping others to be free that I gained my own freedom.

When you possess light within...

When you possess light within, you see it externally.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

What we call our destiny is t...

What we call our destiny is truly our character and that character can be altered. The knowledge that we are responsible for our actions and attitudes does not need to be discouraging, because it also means that we are free to change this destiny. One is not in bondage to the past, which has shaped our feelings, to race, inheritance, background. All this can be altered if we have the courage to examine how it formed us. We can alter the chemistry provided we have the courage to dissect the elements.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

We are all engaged in the tas...

We are all engaged in the task of peeling off the false selves, the programmed selves, the selves created by our families, our culture, our religions. It is an enormous task because the history of women has been as incompletely told as the history of blacks.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

The imagination is far better...

The imagination is far better at inventing tortures than life because the imagination is a demon within us and it knows where to strike, where it hurts. It knows the vulnerable spot, and life does not, our friends and lovers do not, because seldom do they have the imagination equal to the task.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

We write to taste life twice,...

We write to taste life twice, in the moment, and in retrospection.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

We are cruel when someone ref...

We are cruel when someone refuses to play the role in which we have cast him. We judge a person only according to his relationship towards us.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

When I am most deeply rooted,...

When I am most deeply rooted, I feel the wildest desire to uproot myself.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

You must not fear, hold back,...

You must not fear, hold back, count or be a miser with your thoughts and feelings. It is also true that creation comes from an overflow, so you have to learn to intake, to imbibe, to nourish yourself and not be afraid of fullness. The fullness is like a tidal wave which then carries you, sweeps you into experience and into writing.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

The theme of the diary is alw...

The theme of the diary is always the personal, but it does not mean only a personal story: it means a personal relationship to all things and people. The personal, if it is deep enough, becomes universal, mythical, symbolic; I never generalize, intellectualise. I see, I hear, I feel. These are my primitive elements of discovery. Music, dance, poetry and painting are the channels for emotion. It is through them that experience penetrates our bloodstream.

Anais Nin 571 quotes

She lacks confidence, she cra...

She lacks confidence, she craves admiration insatiably. She lives on the reflections of herself in the eyes of others. She does not dare to be herself.
