Ryūnosuke Akutagawa
“When I kill a man, I do it with my sword, but people like you don't use swords. You gentlemen kill with your power, with your money, and sometimes just with your words: you tell people you're doing them a favor. True, no blood flows, the man is still alive, but you've killed him all the same. I don't know whose sin is greater - yours or mine.”
Ryūnosuke Akutagawa

Celeste Ng
“You loved so hard and hoped so much and then you ended up with nothing. Children who no longer needed you. A husband who no longer wanted you. Nothing left but you, alone, and empty space.”
Celeste Ng, Everything I Never Told You

Ryūnosuke Akutagawa
“He wanted to live life so intensely that he could die at any moment without regrets.”
Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, The Life of a Stupid Man

“People decide what you're like before they even get to know you”
Celeste Ng, Everything I Never Told You

Ryūnosuke Akutagawa
“As he thought about his life, he felt both tears and mockery welling up inside him. All that lay before him was madness or suicide. He walked down the darkening street alone, determined now to wait for the destiny that would come to annihilate him.”
Ryūnosuke Akutagawa, The Life of a Stupid Man
