Spring, 1965: Jean ("Yanko") Varda

Anais Nin writes about the Varda collages at the Brand Library in Glendale. Varda is an artist known for his collages. Anais reads her portrait of him from her book, Collages.

Since Anais's diary writing is reduced to a minimum because of the correspondence she is exchanging with various people, there is not much else to write about, so let's share some favorite quotes from 2012:

"Live your life like it's golden, because the reason we work is to do the things in life that we really want to do." - HR director quoted in the Red Eye

"When in doubt, go for it, whether it's wearing something you never thought you could wear, or doing something you never thought you could do." - Glamour magazine

"If someone resonates with what I say, they think I'm a genius. If someone thinks what I say is horrifying, they think I'm an idiot." - Alanis Morissette

"Fashion, like art, music, travel, literature and film, is one of the little gifts we get in this world." - Nina Garcia.

"Happiness is the only true measure of personal success. Making others happy is the highest expression of success." - Yahoo news

"I don't go on vacation to vacate my life but to fill it." - from the book, Drinking the Rain
