More quotes by Haruki Murakami
I collect records. And cats. I don't have any cats right now. But if I'm taking a walk and I see a cat, I'm happy.
Haruki Murakami
It was a small room with dim light coming in the window, reminiscent of old Polish films.
Haruki Murakami
At least he never walked.
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
It's good when food tastes good, it's kind of like proof you're alive.
Haruki Murakami
Cell phones are so convenient that they're an inconvenience.
Haruki Murakami
Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart.
Haruki Murakami
Where I went in my travels, it's impossible for me to recall. I remember the sights and sounds and smells clearly enough, but the names of the towns are gone, as well as any sense of the order in which I traveled from place to place.
Haruki Murakami
I never plan. I never know what the next page is going to be..... But that's the fun of writing a novel or a story, because I don't know what's going to happen next.
Haruki Murakami
There are three ways you can get along with a girl: one, shut up and listen to what she has to say two, tell her you like what she's wearing and three, treat her to really good food...If you do all that and still don't get the results you want, better give up.
Haruki Murakami
I closed my own jazz bar so I could be a man who can write novels as I like. I was pleased about that. This pleasure was connected to the pleasure of writing.
Haruki Murakami
What you see with your eyes is not necessarily real.
Haruki Murakami
Do you know what ‘Sputnik’ means in Russian? ‘Travelling companion’. I looked it up in a dictionary not long ago. Kind of a strange coincidence if you think about it. I wonder why the Russians gave their satellite that strange name. It’s just a poor little lump of metal, spinning around the Earth.
Haruki Murakami
Even if you managed to escape from one cage, weren't you just in another, larger one?
Haruki Murakami
There had to be something wrong with my life. I should have been born a Yugoslavian shepherd who looked up at the Big Dipper every night.
Haruki Murakami
Artists are those who can evade the verbose.
Haruki Murakami
Certain kinds of knowledge rob people of their sleep.
Haruki Murakami
Some things in life are too complicated to explain in any language.
Haruki Murakami
Here, too, a brand-new day is beginning. It could be a day like all the others, or it could be a day remarkable enough in many ways to remain in the memory. In either case, for now, for most people, it is a blank sheet of paper.
Haruki Murakami
Every day I go to my study and sit at my desk and put the computer on. At that moment, I have to open the door. It's a big, heavy door. You have to go into the Other Room. Metaphorically, of course. And you have to come back to this side of the room. And you have to shut the door.
Haruki Murakami
