First words
Most people - by which I mean most of us who are part of Japanese society - graduate from school, then find work, then, after some time has passed, get married. (An Introduction to Two Short Novels)

"There's no such thing as a perfect piece of writing. Just as there's no such thing as perfect despair." (Hear the Wind Sing)

I enjoyed listening to stories about faraway places so much that it became a kind of sickness. (Pinball, 1973)

Quotations
Il romanzo del Sorcio aveva due punti buoni. Primo, non c'erano scene di sesso. Secondo, nessuno moriva. Tanto si sa che gli uomini vanno a letto con le donne, e muoiono. Quindi che bisogno c'è di ricordarglielo con un libro?

Detesto le menzogne. Si può affermare che le menzogne e il silenzio sono le due colpe più gravi della società attuale. Eppure mentiamo spesso, e spesso restiamo in silenzio. Ma se dicessimo sempre e solo la verità, forse il valore della verità si perderebbe.

Intorno alla fermata le luci iniziarono ad accendersi, gli autobus si incrociavano come gigantesche trote che salissero e scendessero la corrente.

Tennessee Williams una volta scrisse: «Il passato e il presente sono quelli che sono, del futuro possiamo solo dire che è "probabile"». Eppure, quando ci voltiamo a guardare il buio sentiero già percorso, riusciamo solo a distinguere un instabile «può darsi». L'unico momento chiaramente visibile è il presente, e anche quello ci passa solo accanto.

Each day was a carbon copy of the last. You needed a bookmark to tell one from the other.
