Haruki Murakami
Everything in life is a metaphor.
Haruki Murakami
I'm the kind of person who has to totally commit to whatever I do.
Haruki Murakami
I don't go out of my way to make friends, that's all.
Haruki Murakami
You know, eating's much more important than most people think. There comes a time in your life when you've just got to have something super-delicious. And when you're standing at that crossroads your whole life can change, depending on which one you go into - the good restaurant or the awful one.
