More From Anais Nin

And then the spirit brings hope, hope in the strictest christian sense, hope which is hoping against hope. for an immediate hope exists in every person; it may be more powerfully alive in one person than in another; but in death every hope of this kind dies and turns into hopelessness. into this night of hopelessness (it is death that we are describing) comes the life-giving spirit and brings hope, the hope of eternity. it is against hope, for there was no longer any hope for that merely natural hope; this hope is therefore a hope contrary to hope.

What the art historians had forgotten is that in chinese, japanese, persian, and indian art, they never painted shadows. why did they paint shadows in european art? shadows are because of optics. optics need shadows and strong light. strong light makes the deepest shadows. it took me a few years to realize fully that the art historians didn't grasp that. there are a lot of interesting new things, ideas, pictures.

I believe in the invisible. i do not believe in the definitive reality of things around us. for me, reality is the intuition and the imagination and the quiet voice inside my head that says: isn't that extraordinary? the things in our lives are the shadows of reality, just as we ourselves are shadows.

Then i noticed that my shadow was crying too, shedding clear, sharp shadow tears. have you ever seen the shadows of tears, mr. wind-up bird? they’re nothing like ordinary shadows. nothing at all. they come here from some other, distant world, especially for our hearts. or maybe not. it struck me then that the tears my shadow was shedding might be the real thing, and the tears that i was shedding were just shadows. you don’t get it, i’m sure, mr. wind-up bird. when a naked seventeen-year-old girl is shedding tears in the moonlight, anything can happen. it’s true.

There never is any such thing as one truth to be found in dramatic art. there are many. these truths challenge each other, recoil from each other, reflect each other, ignore each other, tease each other, are blind to each other. sometimes you feel you have the truth of a moment in your hand, then it slips through your fingers and is lost.

The life we have on earth must have spontaneously generated itself. it must therefore be possible for life to generate spontaneously elsewhere in the universe.

The product of movement and counter-movement is tension. when tension working strength is expressed, it endows the work of art with the living effect of coordinated, though opposing, forces.

Art and poetry cannot do without one another. yet the two words are far from being synonymous. by art i mean the creative or producing, work-making activity of the human mind. by poetry i mean, not the particular art which consists in writing verses, but a process both more general and more primary: that intercommunication between the inner being of things and the inner being of the human self which is a kind of divination (as was realized in ancient times; the latin vates was both a poet and a diviner). poetry, in this sense, is the secret life of each and all of the arts.
