Yoshida Kenkō
“To sit alone in the lamplight with a book spread out before you and hold intimate converse with men of unseen generations - such is pleasure beyond compare.”
Yoshida Kenko, Essays in Idleness: The Tsurezuregusa of Kenkō

Hiromi Kawakami
“Forcing myself to make conversation felt like standing on a cliff, peering over the edge, about to tumble down headfirst.”
Hiromi Kawakami, The Briefcase

Haruki Murakami
“But even so, every now and then I would feel a violent stab of loneliness. The very water I drink, the very air I breathe, would feel like long, sharp needles. The pages of a book in my hands would take on the threatening metallic gleam of razor blades. I could hear the roots of loneliness creeping through me when the world was hushed at four o'clock in the morning.”
Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle

Mark Z. Danielewski
“What miracle is this? This giant tree.
It stands ten thousand feet high
But doesn't reach the ground. Still it stands.
Its roots must hold the sky.”
Mark Z. Danielewski, House of Leaves

Derick S. Thomson
“When I came back from death
it was morning,
the back door was open
and one of the buttons of my shirt had disappeared.”
Derick Thomson
