Sayaka Murata
“You eliminate the parts of your life that others find strange--maybe that's what everyone means when they say they want to 'cure" me.”
Sayaka Murata, コンビニ人間 [Konbini ningen]

Sayaka Murata
“The normal world has no room for exceptions and always quietly eliminates foreign objects. Anyone who is lacking is disposed of.

So that’s why I need to be cured. Unless I’m cured, normal people will expurgate me. Finally I understood why my family had tried so hard to fix me.”
Sayaka Murata, Convenience Store Woman

Sayaka Murata
“After all, I absorb the world around me, and that’s changing all the time. Just as all the water that was in my body last time we met has now been replaced with new water, the things that make up me have changed too.”
Sayaka Murata, Convenience Store Woman

Sayaka Murata
“When something was strange, everyone thought they had the right to come stomping in all over your life to figure out why. I found that arrogant and infuriating, not to mention a pain in the neck. Sometimes I even wanted to hit them with a shovel to shut them up, like I did that time in elementary school. But I recalled how upset my sister had been when I’d casually mentioned this to her before and kept my mouth shut.”
Sayaka Murata, Convenience Store Woman
