“I know no joy as great as a moment of rushing into a new love, no ecstasy like that of a new love.”
Anaïs Nin (1903–1977) writer of novels, short stories, and erotica

Context: Oh, God, I know no joy as great as a moment of rushing into a new love, no ecstasy like that of a new love. I swim in the sky; I float; my body is full of flowers, flowers with fingers giving me acute, acute caresses, sparks, jewels, quivers of joy, dizziness, such dizziness. Music inside of one, drunkenness. Only closing the eyes and remembering, and the hunger, the hunger for more, more, the great hunger, the voracious hunger, and thirst.
“The best measure of a spiritual life is not its ecstasies but its obedience.”
Oswald Chambers (1874–1917) British missionary
“Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.”
