“Any one who falls in love is searching for the missing pieces of themselves. So anyone who’s in love gets sad when they think of their lover. It’ like stepping back inside a room you have fond memories of, one you haven’t seen in a long time. It’s just a natural feeling. You’re not the person who discovered that feeling, so don’t try to patent it, okay?”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“Those who know do not speak. Those who speak do not know.”
― Lao Tsu, Tao Teh Ching

“A question wells up inside me, a question so big it blocks my throat and makes it hard to breathe. Somehow I swallow it back, finally choosing another.
"Are memories such an important thing?"
"It depends," she replies, and closes her eyes. "In some cases, they're the most important thing there is.”
― Haruki Murakami

“A truth that's told with bad intent
Beats all the lies you can invent.”
― William Blake, Auguries of Innocence
