Once a guy starts using a wig, he has to keep using one. It's, like, his fate. That's why wig makers make such huge profits. I hate to say it, but they're like drug dealers.

More quotes by Haruki Murakami
You’re optimistic one moment, only to be racked the next by the certainty that it will all fall to pieces. And in the end it does.
Haruki Murakami
If there's any guy crazy enough to attack me, I'm going to show him the end of the world -- close up. I'm going to let him see the kingdom come with his own eyes. I'm going to send him straight to the southern hemisphere and let the ashes of death rain all over him and the kangaroos and the wallabies.
Haruki Murakami
I began running on an everyday basis after I became a writer. As being a writer requires sitting at a desk for hours a day, without getting some exercise you'd quickly get out of shape and gain weight, I figured.
Haruki Murakami
There's a special feeling you get on a veranda that you just can't get anywhere else.
Haruki Murakami
There's no such thing as perfect writing, just like there's no such thing as perfect despair.
Haruki Murakami
The honour of physical decline is waiting, and you have to get used to that reality.
Haruki Murakami
Possibilities are like cancer. The more I think about them, the more they multiply, and there's no way to stop them. I'm out of control.
Haruki Murakami
If you're in pitch blackness, all you can do is sit tight until your eyes get used to the dark.
Haruki Murakami
Time weighs down on you like an old, ambiguous dream. You keep on moving, trying to sleep through it. But even if you go to the ends of the earth, you won't be able to escape it. Still, you have to go there- to the edge of the world. There's something you can't do unless you get there.
Haruki Murakami
Two-thirds of earth's surface is ocean, and all we can see with the naked eye is the surface.
Haruki Murakami
We all die and disappear, but that's because the mechanism of the world itself is built on destruction and loss.
Haruki Murakami
To be able to talk to your heart’s content about a book you like with someone who feels the same way about it is one of the greatest joys that life can offer.
Haruki Murakami
Most young people were getting jobs in big companies, becoming company men. I wanted to be individual.
Haruki Murakami
Either I'm funny or the world's funny. I don't know which. The bottle and lid don't fit. It could be the bottle's fault or the lid's fault. In either case, there's no denying that the fit is bad.
Haruki Murakami
I don't go out of my way to make friends, that's all.
Haruki Murakami
Sometimes when I think of life, I feel like a piece of driftwood washed up on shore.
Haruki Murakami
I could disappear from the face of the earth, and the world would go on moving without the slightest twinge. Things were tremendously complicated, to be sure, but one thing was clear: no one needed me.
Haruki Murakami
There's an essential order you have to follow in everything. It's a way of showing respect, following everything in the correct order.
Haruki Murakami
This person, this self, this me, finally, was made somewhere else. Everything had come from somewhere else, and it would all go somewhere else. I was nothing but a pathway for the person known as me.
Haruki Murakami
What I want is for the two of us to meet somewhere by chance one day, like, passing on the street, or getting on the same bus.
Haruki Murakami
