Earl Grey

“I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. I knew this was going to happen. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I should be, but I’m not. I just feel pain. A lot of pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong.”
― Haruki Murakami, South of the Border, West of the Sun

“Pain is inevitable. Suffering is optional.”
― haruki murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

“Beauty is something that burns the hand when you touch it.”
― Yukio Mishima, Forbidden Colors

“Even if we could turn back, we'd probably never end up where we started.”
― Haruki Murakami, 1Q84
