Haruki Murakami Quotes

"Every one of us is losing something precious to us""People leave strange little memories of themselves behind""Life is not like water. Things in life don’t necessarily flow over the shortest possible route""You can hide memories, but you can’t erase the history""In the end, people will justify everything they want""A certain type of perfection can only be realized through a limitless accumulation of the imperfect""Despite your best efforts, people are going to be hurt""The whole terrible fight occurred in the area of my mind""What we call the present is given shape by an accumulation""If you remember me, then I don't care if anyone else forgets""Silence, I discover, is something you can actually hear""It's not as if our lives are divided simply into light and dark. There's shadowy middle-ground.""I want to live in a world where people feel the same inside and outside.""No one ever expects science to solve the problem of life completely.""The answer is dreams. Dreaming on and on. Entering the world of dreams and never coming out. Living in dreams for the rest of time.""It's like Tolstoy said. Happiness is an allegory, unhappiness a story.""What stays in your heart will stay; keep them, and what vanishes will vanish. Concentrate on the fact that you have something in your heart, and not on the fact that you don't have what you want.""If you can't understand it without an explanation, you can’t understand it with an explanation.""People die all the time. Life is a lot more fragile than we think.""If you’re young and talented, it’s like you have wings."
