More quotes by Haruki Murakami
Cell phones are so convenient that they're an inconvenience.
Haruki Murakami
That’s how stories happen — with a turning point, an unexpected twist. There’s only one kind of happiness, but misfortune comes in all shapes and sizes. It’s like Tolstoy said. Happiness is an allegory, unhappiness a story.
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
But didn't you say you were satisfied with your life? Word games, I dismissed. Every army needs a flag.
Haruki Murakami
This was something sure to be crammed full of warm secrets, like an antique clock built when peace filled the world.
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
Perhaps most people in the world aren’t trying to be free, Kafka. They just think they are. It’s all an illusion. If they really were set free, most people would be in a real pickle. You’d better remember that. People actually prefer not being free?
Haruki Murakami
I am struck by how, except when you're young, you really need to prioritize in life, figuring out in what order you should divide up your time and energy. If you don't get that sort of system set by a certain age, you'll lack focus and your life will be out of balance.
Haruki Murakami
You said that the mind is like the wind but perhaps it is we who are like the wind Knowing nothing, simply blowing through. Never aging, never dying.
Haruki Murakami
Don't let thoughts of me hold you back. Just do what you want to do. Otherwise, I might end up taking you with me, and that is the one thing I don't want to do. I don't want to interfere with your life.
Haruki Murakami
With each passing moment I'm becoming part of the past. There is no future for me, just the past steadily accumulating.
Haruki Murakami
A story is not something of this world. A real story requires a kind of magical baptism to link the world on this side with the world on the other side.
Haruki Murakami
At the entrance to the original tower, there is a stone into which Jung carved some words with his own hand: 'Cold or not, God is present.
Haruki Murakami
The world would be a pretty dull place if it were made up only of the first-rate, right?
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 have a million things to talk to you about. All I want in this world is you. I want to see you and talk. I want the two of us to begin everything from the beginning.
Haruki Murakami
When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.
Haruki Murakami
Confidence as a teenager? Because I knew what I loved. I loved to read I loved to listen to music and I love cats. Those three things. So, even though I was an only kid, I could be happy because I knew what I loved.
Haruki Murakami
What I'd like to be is a unique writer who's different from everybody else. I want to be a writer who tells stories unlike other writers'.
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
