More quotes by Haruki Murakami
I want to believe you, but if that's true, I just don't get it. Why does loving somebody mean you have to hurt them just as much? I mean, if that's the way it goes, what's the point of loving someone?
Haruki Murakami
I write my novels personally, desperately and non-negligently. When I write my novels, I think about my novels only, and never do other works.
Haruki Murakami
I'm a writer. I don't support any war. That's my principle.
Haruki Murakami
When people tell a lie about something, they have to make up a bunch of lies to go with the first one. ‘Mythomania’ is the word for it.
Haruki Murakami
One listless day followed another, with nothing to distinguish one from the next. You could have changed the order and no one would have noticed.
Haruki Murakami
I always feel like I'm struggling to become someone else. Like I'm trying to find a new place, grab hold of a new life, a new personality. I guess it's part of growing up it's also an attempt to reinvent myself.
Haruki Murakami
Maybe the only thing I can definitely say about is this: That’s life. Maybe the only thing we can do is accept it, without really knowing what’s going on.
Haruki Murakami
Why do people have to build such depressing places? I'm not saying that every nook and cranny of the world has to be beautiful, but does it have to be this ugly?
Haruki Murakami
Life is like a box of cookies.
Haruki Murakami
If I'm going to merely ramble, maybe I should just snuggle under the warm covers, think of Miu, and play with myself.
Haruki Murakami
You can hide as cleverly as you like, but in the final analysis mimicry is deception, pure and simple. It doesn't solve a thing.
Haruki Murakami
I move, therefore I am.
Haruki Murakami
No matter how far you travel, you can never get away from yourself.
Haruki Murakami
Things may look different to you than they did before. I've had that experience myself. But don't let appearances fool you. There's only one reality.
Haruki Murakami
Have your dream...What you need now more than anything is discipline. Cast off mere words. Words turn into stone. (from Thailand)
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
You make do with what you have. As you age you learn even to be happy with what you have.
Haruki Murakami
She was hearing everything that went on in his heart, like a person who can trace a map with his fingertip and conjure up vivid, living scenery.
Haruki Murakami
What gave money its true meaning was its dark-night namelessness, its breathtaking interchangeability.
Haruki Murakami
For novelists or musicians, if they really want to create something, they need to go downstairs and find a passage to get into the second basement. What I want to do is go down there, but still stay sane.
Haruki Murakami
