“Where once I called on her
The garden fence is now in ruins”
Kenkō, A Cup Of Sake Beneath The Cherry Trees-11

“What a glorious luxury it is to taste life to the full for even a single year. If you constantly regret life's passing, even a thousand long years will seem but the dream of a night”
kenko, Essays in Idleness: The Tsurezuregusa of Kenkō

“A ruler who forgets the ways of the great emperors of old, who cares nothing for the woes of the people or the decay of the state but instead takes pride in luxurious indulgence and generally throws his weight around in high-handed fashion, is actually making a great fool of himself.”
Kenko, Essays in Idleness
