Anaïs Nin
“I think now that at the root of all my writing lies the fact that very early in life I lost the desire to participate with others on the basis laid down by society. All I have been doing, possibly, in my work, is to protest and explain wherein I’m different.”
Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Volume 3: 1939-1944

Anaïs Nin
“I don’t look back with any pleasure at the sacrifices I made. I consider it time wasted. Whereas I do not think it time wasted to be idle, to dream, to play. Very much the contrary, I think.”
Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Volume 3: 1939-1944

Anaïs Nin
“Man seems powerless to face the truth or the relative truth stripped of all adornment.”
Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Volume 3: 1939-1944

Anaïs Nin
“Every other illness is understood, shared with other human beings. Not this one. It is mysterious and solitary, it is as ineffectual and unmoving to others as the attempted crying out of a mute person.
Everybody understands hunger, physical pain, illness, poverty, slavery. But no one understands that this moment at which I crossed the street is more annhiliating than a concrete catastrophe. Anxiety is a woman screaming without a voice, out of a nightmare.”
Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Volume 3: 1939-1944

Anaïs Nin
“In all of us there is human weakness. The friend is the one who goes out to strengthen this weakness, but not to attack it.”
Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Volume 3: 1939-1944
