Yukio Mishima
“Possessing by letting go of things was a secret of ownership unknown to youth.”
Yukio Mishima

Milan Kundera
“Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”
Milan Kundera, The Unbearable Lightness of Being

Ryū Murakami
“They don't realise that they've changed; they think it's the world that changed.”
ryu murakami, Coin Locker Babies

Thomas Bernhard
“Everyone, he went on, speaks a language he does not understand, but which now and then is understood by others. That is enough to permit one to exist and at least to be misunderstood.”
Thomas Bernhard, Gargoyles

José Saramago
“Words that come from the heart are never spoken, they get caught in the throat and can only be read in ones's eyes.”
José Saramago
