What I hang on to is the human, and personal. I do not want to enter impersonal, non-human worlds. I want my solitude, my peace, the beauty of my house; I want to find my lightness & my joy again. Introspection does not need to be a still life. It can be an active alchemy.

Anaïs Nin, from a diary entry featured in Henry and June: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anais Nin (1931-1932)

It is the ironies which swallow the ground and leave one dizzy and stranded. In every fulfillment there is a mockery which runs ahead of me like a gust of wind, always ahead. I want to enjoy. I want to stop and enjoy.
