quote mad

and yes, quite mad as well... ;)

i do love quotes and this one i just came across and would like to share. so i am. i have been a fan of anaïs nin since my teens (and have not updated, possibly is but a teen craze, isn't it?), loved the film "henry and june" as well as the book, used to fantasize about impossible love affairs. when they do happen, of course, it isn't as romantic as all that, but rather painful. and yet, one does get a good bit of writing out of them (see shakespeare and so on...) so without further ado, here it is:

Our love of each other was like two long shadows
kissing without hope of reality.
– Anaïs Nin
