Haruki Murakami
“No matter what they wish for, no matter how far they go, people can never be anything but themselves. That's all.”
Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman: 24 Stories

Haruki Murakami
“These days I just can't seem to say what I mean [...]. I just can't. Every time I try to say something, it misses the point. Either that or I end up saying the opposite of what I mean. The more I try to get it right the more mixed up it gets. Sometimes I can't even remember what I was trying to say in the first place. It's like my body's split in two and one of me is chasing the other me around a big pillar. We're running circles around it. The other me has the right words, but I can never catch her.”
Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman: 24 Stories

Haruki Murakami
“Dreams come from the past, not from the future. Dreams shouldn't control you--you should control them. ”
Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman: 24 Stories

Haruki Murakami
“She waited for the train to pass. Then she said, "I sometimes think that people’s hearts are like deep wells. Nobody knows what’s at the bottom. All you can do is imagine by what comes floating to the surface every once in a while.”
Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman

James Baldwin
“There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one’s head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people’s pain.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room
