Haruki Murakami

Haruki Murakami
His heart, like mine, was ticking off the time allotted to his small restless body.
Haruki Murakami
I go back to the reading room, where I sink down in the sofa and into the world of The Arabian Nights. Slowly, like a movie fadeout, the real world evaporates. I'm alone, inside the world of the story. My favourite feeling in the world.
Haruki Murakami
My father always told me: 'Give somebody a hand and he'll take an arm.

Haruki Murakami
Still, in the end, we all die just the same.
Haruki Murakami
When I write about a 15-year old, I jump, I return to the days when I was that age. It's like a time machine. I can remember everything. I can feel the wind. I can smell the air. Very actually. Very vividly.
Haruki Murakami
I would stare at the grains of light suspended in that silent space, struggling to see into my own heart. What did I want? And what did others want from me? But I could never find the answers. Sometimes I would reach out and try to grasp the grains of light, but my fingers touched nothing.
Haruki Murakami
The passage of time will usually extract the venom of most things and render them harmless
Haruki Murakami
Whiskey, like a beautiful woman, demands appreciation. You gaze first, then it's time to drink.
Haruki Murakami
I'm still not sure I made the right choice when I told my wife about the bakery attack.But then,it might not have been a question of right or wrong.

Haruki Murakami
