“The act of seeing is no small thing. To see something is to be possesses by it. Sometimes it carries off a part of you, sometimes it's your whole soul.' (Landscapes of the Heart by Motojiro Kajii)”

“... maybe it takes a long time to figure out what you're truly searching for. Maybe you spend your whole life just to figure out a small part of it."

"I don't know. I think maybe I've been wasting my time, just doing nothing."

"I don't think so. It's important to stand still sometimes. Think of it as a little rest in the long journey of your life. This is your harbor. And your boat is just dropping anchor here for a little while. And after you're well rested, you can set sail again.”
― Satoshi Yagisawa, Days at the Morisaki Bookshop

“In refusing to be a stepping stone, she had made herself a boot.”
