  • “I think you lost all interest in this world. You were disappointed and discouraged, and lost interest in everything. So you abandoned your physical body. You went to a world apart and you’re living a different kind of life there. In a world inside you.”

    Haruki Murakami, 1Q84

  • “I’m not all that smart. It takes me a while to understand things. But if I do have the time, I will come to understand you — better than anyone else in the world.”

    Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

  • “You were hurt badly, and those scars will be with you for ever. I feel sorry for you, I really do. But think of it like this: it’s not too late to recover. You’re young, you’re tough. You’re adaptable. You can patch up your wounds, lift up your head and move on.”

    Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

  • “Never let fear and stupid pride make you lose someone who’s precious to you.”

    Haruki Murakami, Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki and His Years of Pilgrimage

  • “I don't know what it is like to not have deep emotions. Even when I feel nothing, I feel it completely.”

    Sylvia Plath

  • “Even when this world is a forgotten whisper of dust between the stars, I will always love you.”

    Sarah J. Maas, Empire of Storms

  • I love seeing characters make the wrong choice. Like logically, morally, whatever. It should be so easy, so obvious, to do something right for once! But they don’t see it or they don’t care. Their instincts always lead them to choose poorly. Bad for them but great for me because it’s so interesting and I like to watch the suffering. ^_^
