“I have always shook with fright before human beings. Unable as I was to feel the least particle of confidence in my ability to speak and act like a human being, I kept my solitary agonies locked in my breast.

― Osamu Dazai, No Longer Human

“He is terribly afraid of dying because he hasn’t yet lived.”
