"God, I can't remember when I read her diaries or how I came about them, but I remember afterwards, looking at my paltry journals, kept through high school and college, and feeling rather let down by my rather pedestrian life. Yes, I've travelled, yes, junior year abroad in Paris, but god, how very boring I was. Don't misunderstand me, I don't want a life a la Nin, heaven forbid, but no one, but no one is ever going to want to print my diaries. Sigh."
"This goes for anything this woman writes, not just volume 1 of her diaries. What I love about Anais is that she makes no apologies for her inner-contradictions. She knows herself well, even in her uncertainties. She knows her strengths and weaknesses and writes passionately about both. We've all had that feeling when someone says something that makes you go, "That is EXACTLY how I feel, but could never quite express it that way". Well, this woman does that with almost every paragraph for me. It's as if she's speaking from my heart and that makes me slightly uncomfortable to tell you the truth. However, I'm in awe of it at the same time. If you are a woman, read her. Now."
"i like these much more than her novels. a beautiful woman. i love her notes about dreams. and one of my favorite quotes: "Anxiety is a woman screaming without a voice," paraphrased because my memory is terrible. ok i'm just going to list some quotes: "But this woman, who could undress at the request of any man, make love with anyone, go to orgies, act as a call girl in a professional house, this Beth told me she found it actually difficult to talk about sex!" "Far below a rather pale nature, a subdued tropical life, lay a scenery of dreams, a dream born out of continuity impossible to an artist. "(...) A dream from which all violence was absent. "Here lay a dream entombed." "The softer the velvet box, the deeper the rugs, the warmer the rooms, the greater the abundance of food, the more I miss what I have lost, the lonelier I feel."
...I haven't read this in years. I'm skimming through my used, worn copy now to see what I (and the previous owner) underlined. I forgot what it meant to me. Recommended for any woman who feels too deeply for her own good."
