Haruki Murakami
Young people these days don't trust anything at all. They want to be free.
Haruki Murakami
A fortunate author can write maybe twelve novels in his lifetime.
Haruki Murakami
All imperfections are forced upon the imperfect, so the 'perfect' can live content and oblivious.
Haruki Murakami
Have your dream...What you need now more than anything is discipline. Cast off mere words. Words turn into stone. (from Thailand)

The faintest gleam of their lost memories glimmered for the briefest moment in their hearts.
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.

Exerting yourself to the fullest within your individual limits: that's the essence of running, and a metaphor for life
Haruki Murakami
