I want to live only for ecstasy. Small doses, moderate loves, all half-shades, leave me cold. I like extravagance. Letters which give the postman a stiff back to carry, books which overflow from their covers, sexuality which bursts the thermometer.

Anaïs Nin, from a diary entry featured in The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. I 1931-1934

I feel very small. I don't understand. I have so much courage, fire, energy, for many things, yet I get so hurt, so wounded by small things.

You don't find love, it finds you. It's got a little bit to do with destiny, fate, and what's written in the stars.

Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds.
