Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

And as the years have passed, the time has grown longer. The sad truth is that what I could recall in five seconds all too needed ten, then thirty, then a full minute - like shadows lengthening at dusk. Someday, I suppose, the shadows will be swallowed up in darkness. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

There are a lot of things that aren't your fault. Or mine, either. Not the fault of prophecies, or curses, or DNA, or absurdity. Not the fault of Structuralism or the Third Industrial Revolution. We all die and disappear, but that's because the mechanism of the world itself is built on destruction and loss. Our lives are just shadows of that guiding principle. Say the wind blows. It can be a strong, violent wind or a gentle breeze. But eventually every kind of wind dies out and disappears. Wind doesn't have form. It's just a movement of air. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

So that's how we live our lives. No matter how deep and fatal the loss, no matter how important the thing that's stolen from us
that's snatched right out of our hands
even if we are left completely changed, with only the outer layer of skin from before, we continue to play out our lives this way, in silence. We draw ever nearer to the end of our allotted span of time, bidding it farewell as it trails off behind. Repeating, often adroitly, the endless deeds of the everyday. Leaving behind a feeling of immeasurable emptiness. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Generally speaking, there was no other way for a woman to take down a bigger, stronger man one-on-one. This was Aomame's unshakable belief. That part of the body was the weakest point attached to - or, rather, hanging from - the creature known as man, and most of the time, it was not effectively defended. Not to take advantage of that fact was out of the question. As a woman, Aomame had no concrete idea how much it hurt to suffer a hard kick in the balls, though judging from the reactions and facial expressions of men she had kicked, she could at least imagine it. Not even the strongest or toughest man, it seemed, could bear the pain and the major loss of self-respect that accompanied it. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

You tell me there is no fighting or hatred or desire in the Town. That is a beautiful dream, and I do want your happiness. But the absence of fighting or hatred or desire also means the opposites do not exist either. No joy, no communion, no love. Only where there is disillusionment and depression and sorrow does happiness arise; without despair or loss, there is no hope. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

We keep moving. And as we do, the things around us, well, they disappear. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Stephen McCranie

The master has failed more times than the beginner has even tried. — Stephen McCranie

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Despite your best efforts, people are going to be hurt when it's time for them to be hurt. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

I would never see her again, except in memory. She was here, and now she's gone. There is no middle ground. Probably is a word that you may find south of the border. But never, ever west of the sun. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Everybody has some one thing they do not want to lose," began the man. "You included. And we are professionals at finding out that very thing. Humans by necessity must have a midway point between their desires and their pride. Just as all objects must have a center of gravity. This is something we can pinpoint. Only when it is gone do people realize it even existed. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

You've got to spend your money for the things that money can buy, not worry about profit or loss. Save your energy for the things that money can't buy." He — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

To what extent facts we recognize as such really are as they seem, and to what extent these are facts merely because we label them as such, is an impossible distinction to draw. Therefore, in order to pin down reality as reality, we need another reality to relativize the first. Yet that other reality requires a third reality to serve as its grounding. An endless chain is created within our consciousness, and it is the maintenance of this chain which produces the sensation that we are actually here, that we ourselves exist. But something can happen to sever that chain and we are at a loss. What is real? Is reality on this side of the break in the chain? Or over there, on the other side? — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Only where there is disillusionment and depression and sorrow does happiness arise; without the despair of loss, there is no hope. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

There is no silence without a cry of grief, no forgiveness without bloodshed, no acceptance without a passage of acute loss. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Pat Conroy

[P]enmanship as pretty as a row of tulips — Pat Conroy

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

After you pass a certain age, things you were able to do easily aren't so easy anymore - just as a fastball pitcher's speed starts to slip away with time. Of course, it's possible for people as they mature to make up for a decline in natural talent. Like when a fastball pitcher transforms himself into a cleverer pitcher who relies on changeups. But there is a limit. And there definitely is a sense of loss. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Losing you is most difficult for me, but the nature of my love for you is what matters. If it distorts into half-truth, then perhaps it is better not to love you. I must keep my mind but loose you. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

For darkness terrifies. It swallows you, warps you, nullifies you. Who alive can possibly profess confidence in darkness? In the dark, you can't see. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Kishore Bansal

Contentment keeps the mind & soul under control — Kishore Bansal

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

No matter how deep and fatal the loss, no matter how important the thing that's stolen from us - that's snatched right out of our hands - even if we are left completely changed, with only the outer layer of skin from before, we continue to play out our lives this way, in silence.
I dream. Sometimes I think that's the only right thing to do. To dream, to live in the world of dreams - just as Sumire said. But it doesn't last forever. Wakefulness always comes to take me back. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

The cause of it all was a slight oversight, one small operation out of order. Sure, it was her fault, her responsibility, if it came to that, but from where I stood it seemed like a common enough mishap. A momentary lapse and - glitch! Could have happened to anyone. But not to her. A tiny crack in her head widened into a fissure, eventually becoming a gaping chasm. She wouldn't, she couldn't take another step. At a total loss for words, she froze in place. She was a sorry sight, a ship sinking slowly in the night sea. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Ansel Elgort

Sometimes you want to read what people write about you, obviously. — Ansel Elgort

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Each memory was now the shadow of a shadow of a shadow. The only thing that remained tangible to him was the sense of absence. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

We all die and disappear, but that's because the mechanism of the world itself is built on destruction and loss. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Archibald Marwizi

All around you, production must be taking place to bring you closer to realizing your defined success. Adopt a personal responsibility attitude to enable the realization of your dreams. — Archibald Marwizi

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

One heart is not connected to another through harmony alone. They are, instead, linked deeply through their wounds. Pain linked to pain, fragility to fragility. There is no silence without a cry of grief, no forgiveness without bloodshed, no acceptance without a passage through acute loss. That is what lies at the root of true harmony. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Tiffanie DeBartolo

I almost died. Fortunately, my mother was a nurse. She gave me a shot of something, and things turned out brilliantly.
Lucky me, I thought. Why couldn't his mother have been a telephone operator? — Tiffanie DeBartolo

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Every one of us is losing something precious to us. Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back again. That's part of what it means to be alive. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Die and disappear, but that's because the mechanism of the world itself is built on destruction and loss. Our lives are just shadows of that guiding principle. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Haruki Murakami

Whatever is the loss becomes greater each time we meet. It is a well that will never be filled. It is dark, unbearably so. — Haruki Murakami

Murakami Loss Quotes By Maxim Gorky

When everything is easy one quickly gets stupid. — Maxim Gorky
