ANAIS NIN ~ LIFE WITHOUT LIMITS

in Just a bit of everything and everyone... by

“I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn’t impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls.”
Anais Nin

FREUD ~ ON DREAMWORK

Sigmund Freud, The Interpretation of dreams, 1900
