Haruki Murakami
“What happens when people open their hearts?"
"They get better.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

Min Jin Lee
“Poser beaucoup de questions était sa manière d'analyser les autres. La plupart du temps, les pensées des gens se voyaient confirmées plus tard par leurs actions. Il avait remarqué que l'on disait plus souvent la vérité que des mensonges et que très peu de personnes savaient mentir correctement. A ses yeux, il n'y avait rien de plus décevant que de découvrir la banalité des autres, c'est pourquoi il préférait les femmes intelligentes aux idiotes, et les travailleuses aux oisives.”
Min Jin Lee, Pachinko

Yasunari Kawabata
“De mon côté, je t'en ai beaucoup voulu, et puis je me suis fait des reproches, mais dans cette vie misérable que nous menions, nous, Japonais, je me suis aperçu qu'il fallait avoir de l'empathie pour notre propre jeunesse.”
Yasunari Kawabata

Min Jin Lee
“You want to see a very bad man? Make an ordinary man successful beyond his imagination. Let’s see how good he is when he can do whatever he wants.”
Min Jin Lee, Pachinko

Min Jin Lee
“Learn everything. Fill your mind with knowledge—it’s the only kind of power no one can take away from you.” Hansu never told him to study, but rather to learn, and it occurred to Noa that there was a marked difference. Learning was like playing, not labor.”
Min Jin Lee, Pachinko
