Osamu Dazai
“I have one request to make of you, which embarrasses me very much. You remember the hemp kimono of Mother's which you altered so that I could wear it next summer? Please put it in my coffin. I wanted to wear it.”
Osamu Dazai, The Setting Sun

David  Mitchell
“Obscurity is Japan's outermost defense. The country doesn't want to be understood.”
David Mitchell, The Thousand Autumns of Jacob de Zoet

Osamu Dazai
“Any man who criticizes my suicide and passes judgment on me with an expression of superiority, declaring (without offering the least help) that I should have gone on living my full complement of days, is assuredly a prodigy among men quite capable of tranquilly urging the Emperor to open a fruit shop.”
Osamu Dazai, The Setting Sun

Ellen Hopkins
“...I think the more
she has failed at things like relationships
and parenting, the more she has cut

herself off from feeling bad about those
things. And if you don't let yourself feel
bad, sooner or later you stop feeling

good, too. You insulate yourself. Build
up layers, like stacking paper, everything
growing heavier. And when the weight

becomes too much, those layers compress.
Become hard. Sad, really, to think that
Kristina has turned herself into cardboard.”
Ellen Hopkins, Fallout

Haruki Murakami
“I was enveloped in numbness, and absence of feeling so deep the bottom was lost from view.”
haruki murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle
