Book cover for The Heart's Invisible Furies
A line came into my mind, something that Hannah Arendt had once said about the poet Auden: that life had manifested the heart’s invisible furies on his face.

Toshikazu Kawaguchi
“People don’t see things and hear things as objectively as they might think. The visual and auditory information that enters the mind is distorted by experiences, thoughts, circumstances, wild fancies, prejudices, preferences, knowledge, awareness, and countless other workings of the mind.”
Toshikazu Kawaguchi, Before the Coffee Gets Cold

Fredrik Backman
“If you want to know why people sacrifice everything for love, you have to start by asking how they fell in love.”
Fredrik Backman, Us Against You

Kazuo Ishiguro
“Until recently, I didn’t think that humans could choose
loneliness. That there were sometimes forces more powerful than the wish to avoid loneliness.”
Kazuo Ishiguro, Klara and the Sun

“I don’t know, if I have to give some sort of advice here to all you sweet baby angels who want more than how you’re currently living, I’ll say, just remember that as long as you’re attempting to not be a dick and doing your best to do good things, you’re worthy of a good life, one that you’re proud of and that when you wake up every morning makes you stoked to be yourself. And if you don’t wake up stoked to be you, figure out the first step you can take toward that life you want. Once you’ve taken that first step, then figure out the next step, and so on. It might feel like a long journey (it is), but for me, that was the most important part, because once I got to where I wanted to be, I was confident in my ability to grab that opportunity by the balls and make it my bitch.”
Karen Kilgariff, Stay Sexy & Don't Get Murdered: The Definitive How-To Guide

Toshikazu Kawaguchi
“It takes courage to say what has to be said.”
Toshikazu Kawaguchi, Before the Coffee Gets Cold
