Anais Nin Quotation re Chaos in Human Growth

“We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.”

Anais Nin

It is not quite womanly....

“The fact is, you have fallen lately, Cecily, in to a bad habit of thinking for yourself. You should give it up. It is not quite womanly... men don't like it.”

Oscar Wilde

EDIT: ps...... My Mother once told me that I should allow my husband (hubby no. 1, at the time) to believe that he was the ruler of the kingdom, because I would be lost without him.

I have always thought that if one had to behave like a brainless, simpering kiss-ass to get or keep a man, that man was not only very likely to be a lousy lover, but a dead bore, too.

Oscar Wilde: There is no friendship possible

   “ Between men and women there is no friendship possible. There is passion, enmity, worship, love, but no friendship. ”

Oscar Wilde

Hmmm......shades of Katherine Hepburn.

For a kiss to be really good....

“For a kiss to be really good, you want it to mean something. You want it to be with someone you can’t get out of your head, so that when your lips finally touch you feel it everywhere. A kiss so hot and so deep you never want to come up for air. You can’t cheat your first kiss. Trust me, you don’t want to. Cause when you find that right person for a first kiss, it’s everything. ”
