“Τι ήταν ο έρωτας λοιπόν αν όχι μια ποθητή απώλεια του εαυτού σου; Μια βαθιά υπόκλιση του εγώ στο εμείς; Μια τρομερή ένταση που αψηφά τους κανόνες και τα κλισέ; Ερωτεύεσαι μέχρι θανάτου για να ζήσεις. Τι οξύμωρη σκέψη.”
― Αφροδίτη Φραγκιαδουλάκη, Το Ραντεβού

“I would like to have your sureness. I am waiting for love, the core of a woman's life."
Don't wait for it," I said. "Create a world, your world. Alone. Stand alone. And then love will come to you, then it comes to you. It was only when I wrote my first book that the world I wanted to live in opened to me.”
― Anaïs Nin, The Diary of Anaïs Nin, Vol. 1: 1931-1934

“I don’t really want to become normal, average, standard. I want merely to gain in strength, in the courage to live out my life more fully, enjoy more, experience more. I want to develop even more original and more unconventional traits”
