I want to get more familiar with you. I love you. I loved you when you came and sat on the bed — all that second afternoon was like warm mist — and I hear again the way you say my name — with that queer accent of yours. You arouse in me such a mixture of feelings, I don't know how to approach you. Only come to me — get closer and closer to me. It will be beautiful, I promise you.

Additional quotes by Henry Miller

The Bible is full of miracles, and they have been accepted by thinking and unthinking individuals alike. But the miracle which every one is permitted to experience some time in his life, the miracle which demands no intervention, no intercessor, no supreme exertion of will, the miracle which is open to the fool and the coward as well as the hero and the saint, is love. Born of an instant, it lives eternally. If energy is imperishable, how much more so is love! Like energy, which is still a complete enigma, love is always there, always on tap. Man has never created an ounce of energy, nor did he create love. Love and energy have always been, always will be. Perhaps in essence they are one and the same. Why not? Perhaps this mysterious energy which is identified with the life of the universe, which is God in action, as some one has said, perhaps this secret, all-invasive force is but the manifestation of love.

The one thing we can never get enough of is love. And the one thing we never give enough of is love.

Why are we so full of restraint? Why do we not give in all directions? Is it fear of losing ourselves? Until we do lose ourselves there is no hope of finding ourselves.
