Dani Reading & Notes

“There were places I wanted to go and people I wanted to see. And there was a place that was always ready to welcome me back. I can’t think of anything more wonderful than that.”
― Satoshi Yagisawa, More Days at the Morisaki Bookshop

“The dumb thought popped into my head that if only all these tears were oil, I’d be rich, but it was so dumb that it made me cry more.”
― Satoshi Yagisawa, Days at the Morisaki Bookshop

“Don’t be afraid to love someone. When you fall in love, I want you to fall in love all the way. Even if it ends in heartache, please don’t live a lonely life without love. I’ve been so worried that because of what happened you’ll give up on falling in love. Love is wonderful. I don’t want you to forget that. Those memories of people you love, they never disappear. They go on warming your heart as long as you live. When you get old like me, you’ll understand.”
― Satoshi Yagisawa, Days at the Morisaki Bookshop

“It's important to stand still sometimes. Think of it as a little rest in the long journey of your life. This is your harbor. And your boat is just dropping anchor here for a little while. And after you're well rested, you can set sail again.”
