Haruki Murakami
“If you look at things from a distance, most anything looks beautiful.”
Haruki Murakami, Pinball, 1973

Yasunari Kawabata
“After he became the Master, the world believed that he could not lose, and he had to believe it himself. Therein was the tragedy.”
Yasunari Kawabata, The Master of Go

Haruki Murakami
“The past and the present, might we say, go like this. The future is a maybe. Yet we look back on the darkness that obscures the path that brought us fair, we only come up with another indefinite maybe. The only thing we perceive with any clarity is the present moment, and even that just passes by.”
Haruki Murakami, Pinball, 1973

“Can you grasp your right fist with your right hand? Obviously not -- your hand can't grasp itself. But there's another, less obvious reason why you can't do it: As soon as you open your right hand to grasp something, you no longer have a right fist.”
Mark Fabi, Wyrm

Michael McDowell
“I would be perfectly willing if a publisher came up to me and said, "I need a novel about underwater Nazi cheerleaders and it has to be 309 pages long and I need fourteen chapters and a prologue.”
Michael McDowell
