QUOTE:
The trouble with Irene is that she has a valise instead of a cunt.  She wants
fat letters to shove in her valise.  Immense, avec des choses inouies.  Llona
now, she had a cunt. ... Not a prick in the land big enough for her. p.8

The preface is often credited to Anaïs Nin [w] (but isn't mentioned as such)
