Anais Nin Quotes

Writing A Love Letter

A-BitterSweet-Life

For me, the artist simply means one who can transform ordinary life into a beautiful creation with his craft. But I did not mean creation strictly applied only to the arts, I meant creation in life, the creation of a child, a garden, a home...I was referring to creativity in all its aspects...the faculty for healing, consoling, raising the level of life, transforming it by our own efforts. I was talking about the creative will, our salvation. - Anaïs Nin
