Quote by Anaïs Nin

“This woman's hair ... it was the most sensual hair I have ever seen. Medusa must have had hair like this and with it seduced the men who fell under her spell. It was full of life, heavy, and as pungent as if it had been bathed in sperm. To me it always felt as if it had been wrapped around a penis and soaked in secretions. It was the kind of hair I wanted to wrap around my own sex. It was warm and musky, oily, strong. It was the hair of an animal. It bristled when it was touched. Merely to pass my fingers through it could give me an erection. I would have been content just touching her hair.”

“I look at you and see a life we’ve yet to build,
a love that feels inevitable, waiting to unfold. I look at your face and ache to make you smile,
to be the reason your eyes shine just a little brighter. I look at you and want to lift you higher,
to be the arms that catch you, the voice that fuels you. I look at you and dream of a future—our future,
where your children are mine, and mine are yours. I look at you and feel invincible,
as if with you beside me, there’s nothing I can’t conquer. I look at you and hesitate, unsure how to begin,
my heart racing over a name I don’t even know. I look at you as you walk past me,
our silent moment stretching between sips of coffee. I look at you as you turn, as you smile—
and then I look at you drive away with another woman,
because in the end, we are just strangers at the coffee shop.”

“The unity of existence is the foundation of all ethical codes. Properly understood, it widens the bounds of charity beyond humanity to include the animal world as well. Self-love is the mainspring of man‘s action and the raison d'être of his love for others. We learn from Non-dualistic Vedanta that the true Self of man is the Self of all beings. Therefore, self-love finds its expression and fulfilment in love for all. – Swami Nikhilananda”

“People imagined the Cockaigne ("Land of Plenty") menu as full of delectable meats such as hare, deer and wild boar . all which let themselves be caught. Grilled fish leaped out of rivers of wine onto your plate. Roast geese waddled down streets paved in pastry, just begging to be eaten. Flying pigs and buttered birds fell from the sky like rain, directly into people's mouths. People lived in edible houses made of pancake roofs and walls made of sausage.”
