Tengo, 1Q84
Passing the station, I thought about Naoko and our endless walking. It had all started from there. I realized that if I hadn’t run into Naoko on the train that Sunday in May, my life would have been very different from what it was now. but then I changed my mind: no, even if we hadn’t met that day, my life might not have been any different. We had met that day because we were supposed to meet. If we hadn’t met then and there, we would have met somewhere else sometime. I didn’t have any basis for thinking this: it was just a feeling.Haruki Murakami (Norwegian Wood)

Letters are just pieces of paper,” I said. “Burn them, and what stays in your heart will stay; keep them, and what vanishes will vanish.Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood (via ladouleurexquise-e)
When I finish work and get in bed, I always think: let me not wake up. Let me just go on sleeping. ‘Cause then I wouldn’t have to think about anything.Haruki Murakami - After Dark
