― Haruki Murakami, Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman
[text ID: I sometimes think that people’s hearts are like deep wells. Nobody knows what’s at the bottom. All you can do is imagine by what comes floating to the surface every once in a while.]
“Do you imagine at night someone going to bed the very moment you are going to bed? Turning out the light? And isn’t it so quiet you swear the heart is telepathic. Isn’t it—”
— Beckian Fritz Goldberg, Eros in His Striped Shirt
I wanted to be that girl. . . . . .

“In certain areas of my life, I actively seek out solitude. Especially for someone in my line of work, solitude is, more or less, an inevitable circumstance. Sometimes, however, this sense of isolation, like acid spilling out of a bottle, can unconsciously eat away at a person’s heart and dissolve it. You could see it, too, as a kind of double-edged sword. It protects me, but at the same time steadily cuts away at me from the inside.”
— Haruki Murakami, What I Talk About When I Talk About Running

Like the sound of dew, the end of the day brings evening; the kite erases the scent of the sunshine; when all the colors of the world are faded, the manuscript is arranged, the fireflies and their colors flicker in that story; all the birds come home - all the rivers end this life’s works; there is only darkness, and she sits in front of me, Banalata Sen.
- Jibananda Das, Banalata Sen
“It’s not insane to imagine that sometimes even horrible people are searching for a way out of their own darkness.”
— Tahereh Mafi, Defy Me (via thebookquotes)
