Osamu Dazai
“The thought occurred to me as I lay there. You wait and wait for happiness, and when finally you can't bear it any longer, you rush out of the house, only to hear later that a marvelous happiness arrived the following day at the home you had abandoned, and now it was too late. Sometimes happiness arrives one night too late.”
Osamu Dazai, Schoolgirl

Osamu Dazai
“It's not as though we only care about the present. If you were to point to a faraway mountain and say, If you can make it there, it's a pretty good view, I'd see that there's not an ounce of untruth to what you tell us. But when you say, Well, bear with it just a little longer, if you can make it to the top of that mountain, you'll have done it, you are ignoring the fact that we are suffering from a terrible stomachache—right now. Surely one of you is mistaken to let us go on this way. You're the one who is to blame.”
Osamu Dazai, Schoolgirl

Banana Yoshimoto
“Me, when I'm utterly exhausted by it all, when my skin breaks out, on those lonely evenings when I call my friends again and again and nobody's home, then I despise my own life - my birth, my upbringing, everything.”
Banana Yoshimoto, Kitchen

Banana Yoshimoto
“There are many, many difficult times, god knows. If a person wants to stand on her own two feet, I recommend undertaking the care and feeding of something. It could be children, or it could be house plants, you know? By doing that you come to understand your own limitations. That's where it starts.”
Banana Yoshimoto, Kitchen

Annie M.G. Schmidt
“En daarom moet u voor die tijd wel weten
hoe pruimenbloesem ritselt als het waait,
en hoe de vlier bloeit. U moet niet vergeten:
de Meien zijn betrekk'lijk dun gezaaid.”
Annie M.G. Schmidt, Die van die van u
