“Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That's part of what it means to be alive. But inside our heads--at least that's where I imagine it--there's a little room where we store those memories. A room like the stacks in this library. And to understand the workings of our own heart we have to keep on making new reference cards. We have to dust things off every once in a while, let in fresh air, change the water in the flower vases. In other words, you'll live forever in your own private library.”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“I’ve built a wall around me, never letting anybody inside and trying not to venture outside myself”
― Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

“وهذا لا يعني أنّ الهُروب هُوَ الحل لِكل شيء ..... مَهما ابتعدت فـلن تَحُل المَسافات شيئاً.”
― هاروكي موراكامي, Kafka on the Shore

“كانَ الـأحب إلى قلبي .. وكُنت أخشى أن أَفقده ذاتَ يوم، ولذا كانَ عليّ أن أتخلى عنهُ بنفسي، فإذا كان سيسرقُ مني أو سأفقُده في حادث فمن الـأفضل أن أتخلى عنهُ بنفسي.”
― هاروكي موراكامي, Kafka on the Shore
