"Every atom of your flesh is as dear to me as my own: in pain and sickness it would still be dear. Your mind is my treasure, and if it were broken, it would be my treasure still."

-Charlotte Brontë

"While the world watched with fascination the gay, charming, intelligent, mysterious Anaïs, the other women in her—the shy, the strong, the practical, the unsure, the observing, the detached, the childish—clamored for recognition in the pages of the diary. It is the gathering place of her fragmented self, her retreat from the demands of living."

-Gunther Stuhlman

"But I am not in danger because my home, my garden, my beautiful life do not lull me. I am aware of being in a beautiful prison, from which I can only escape by writing."

-Anaïs Nin

"If there is an explanation of the mystery, it is this: the love between women is a refuge and an escape into harmony and narcissism in place of conflict. In the love between man and woman there is resistance and conflict. Two women do not judge each other. They form an alliance. It is, in a way, self-love. I love June because she is the woman I would like to be."

-Anaïs Nin

"أحببت ضحكته، فقد كانت كلحظات الشمس الخاطفة التي تتسرب من بين الغيوم الراكضة في خريف ضيعتنا."

-حنين الصايغ

"To the sympathetic a masterpiece becomes a living reality which we feel drawn in bonds of comradeship. The masters are immortal, for their loves and fears live in us over and over again."

-Okakura Tenshin

"It didn't much matter which system of thought a man chose to identify himself with, so long as he kept his heart calm, in which case everything would naturally work itself out for the best."

-Amenomori Hōshū

" الحب هو أن نتجاذب كرة النار لا ان نتقاذفها."

-حنين الصايغ

"To fear love is to fear life, and those who fear life are already three-parts dead."

-Bertrand Russell

"Life begins, on the other side of despair."
