Haruki Murakami
“It's hard to tell the difference between sea and sky, between voyager and sea. Between reality and the workings of the heart.”
Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“I cherish two sentences and keep them close to my desk. The first is by Flaubert. I came upon it among Van Gough's letters. It says, simply, 'Talent is long patience, and originality an effort of will and of intense observation.”
Mary Oliver, A Poetry Handbook

Hisham Matar
“Nationalism is as thin as a thread, perhaps that's why many feel it must be anxiously guarded”
Hisham Matar, In the Country of Men

Haruki Murakami
“Your heart is like a great river after a long spell of rain, spilling over its banks. All signposts that once stood on the ground are gone, inundated and carried away by that rush of water. And still the rain beats down on the surface of the river. Every time you see a flood like that on the news you tell yourself: That’s it. That’s my heart.”
Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

Haruki Murakami
“Closing your eyes isn't going to change anything. Nothing's going to disappear just because you can't see what's going on. In fact, things will even be worse the next time you open your eyes. That's the kind of world we live in. Keep your eyes wide open. Only a coward closes his eyes. Closing your eyes and plugging up your ears won't make time stand still.”
Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore
