“Listen. I may not be much, but I'm all I've got. Maybe you need a magnifying glass to find my face in my high school graduation photo. Maybe I haven't got any family or friends. Yes, yes, I know all that. But, strange as it might seem, I'm not entirely dissatisfied with life... I feel pretty much at home with what I am. I don't want to go anywhere. I don't want any unicorns behind fences.”
― Haruki Murakami, Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World

“You're my star, a stargazer too,
and I wish that I were heaven,
with a billion eyes to look at you.”
― Plato

“Plato asked Socrates what is love...
Socrates: Go into the field and get me the most special leaf...
Plato returned with no leaf at hand
said: I found the most beautiful leaf in the field but I didn't pick it up for I might find a better one, but when I returned to the place, it was gone...
Socrates: We always look for the best in life. When we finally see it, we take it for granted and expecting a better one...

NOT KNOWING IT WAS THE BEST AND LAST!!!”
― Plato

“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
