Haruki Murakami
“But who can say what's best? That's why you need to grab whatever chance you have of happiness where you find it, and not worry about other people too much. My experience tells me that we get no more than two or three such chances in a life time, and if we let them go, we regret it for the rest of our lives.”
Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra
“When life itself seems lunatic, who knows where madness lies? Perhaps to be too practical is madness. To surrender dreams — this may be madness. Too much sanity may be madness — and maddest of all: to see life as it is, and not as it should be!”
Miguel de Cervantes Saavedra, Don Quixote

Don DeLillo
“Sometimes I see something so moving I know I’m not supposed to linger. See it and leave. If you stay too long, you wear out the wordless shock. Love it and trust it and leave.”
Don DeLillio, Underworld

Cormac McCarthy
“Then they set out along the blacktop in the gunmetal light, shuffling through the ash, each the other's world entire.”
Cormac McCarthy, The Road

George Orwell
“It is only when you meet someone of a different culture from yourself that you begin to realise what your own beliefs really are.”
George Orwell, The Road to Wigan Pier
