It's true though: time moves in its own special way in the middle of the night,' the bartender says, loudly striking a book match and lighting a cigarette. 'You can't fight it.

What do you mean, 'playing really creatively'? Can you give me an example?' 'Hmm, let's see ... you send the music deep enough into your heart so that it makes your body undergo a kind of a physical shift, and simultaneously the listener's body also undergoes the same kind of physical shift. It's giving birth to that kind of shared state. Probably.

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?

I think I'll stay alive here a bit longer, and see with my own eyes what's going to happen. I can still die after that - it won't be too late. Probably.

How about Proust's In Search of Lost Time?' Tamaru asked. 'If you've never read it this would be a good opportunity to read the whole thing.' 'Have you read it?' 'No, I haven't been in jail, or had to hide out for a long time. Someone once said unless you have those kinds of opportunities, you can't read the whole of Proust.

But actually time isn't a straight line. It doesn't ave a shape. In all senses of the term, it doesn't have any form. But since we can't picture something without form in our minds, for the sake of convenience we understand it as a straight line. At this point, humans are the only ones who can make that sort of conceptual substitution.

Is this what it means to go back to square one? Most likely. He had nothing left to lose, other than his life.

You said you're going far away,' Tamaru said. 'How far away are we talking about?' 'It's a distance that can't be measured.' 'Like the distance that separates one person's heart from another's.

If you really want to know what's happening here and now, you've got to use your own eyes and your own judgment.

Haruki Murakami 1117 quotes

Only people who have been disc...

Only people who have been discriminated against can really know how much it hurts. Each person feels the pain in his own way, each has his own scars. So I think I'm as concerned about fairness and justice as anybody. But what disgusts me even more are people who have no imagination. The kind T. S. Elliot calls 'hollow men'. People who fill up that lack of imagination with heartless bits of straw, not even aware of what they're doing. Callous people who throw a lot of empty words at you, trying to force you to do what y

Nobody's easier to fool, than the person who is convinced that he is right.

Life's no piece of cake, mind you, but the recipe's my own to fool with.

Haruki Murakami 1117 quotes

This is what it means to live ...

This is what it means to live on. When granted hope, a person uses it as fuel, as a guidepost to life. It is impossible to live without hope.

When the orbits of these two satellites of ours happened to cross paths, we could be together. Maybe even open our hearts to each other. But that was only for the briefest moment. In the next instant we'd be in absolute solitude. Until we burned up and became nothing.

We're all kind of weird and twisted and drowning.

The thing I'm most afraid of is me. Of not knowing what I'm going to do. Of not knowing what I'm doing right now

You make do with what you have. As you age you learn even to be happy with what you have.

Whether it's good for anything or not, cool or totally uncool, in the final analysis what's most important is what you can't see but can feel in your heart.
