Haruki Murakami
“Good question, but no answer. Good questions never have answers.”
Haruki Murakami, Pinball, 1973

Haruki Murakami
“I didn’t have the vaguest idea of what to do – I couldn’t keep staring at the wall forever, I told myself. But even that admonition didn’t work. A faculty advisor reviewing a graduation thesis would have had the perfect comment: you write well, you argue clearly, but you don’t have anything to say.”
Haruki Murakami, Pinball, 1973

“When I first came to New York I had a theory about that -- about survivors. I thought there are people in every generation whose urge to survive is so strong they endanger everyone else. And themselves. They are attractive and vital with their secret purpose. We love and follow them. And they are the enemy.”
Marc Brandel, Survivor

Haruki Murakami
“If you look at things from a distance, most anything looks beautiful.”
Haruki Murakami, Pinball, 1973

Michael McDowell
“I would be perfectly willing if a publisher came up to me and said, "I need a novel about underwater Nazi cheerleaders and it has to be 309 pages long and I need fourteen chapters and a prologue.”
Michael McDowell
