Sarah Vaughan A Lover’s Concerto (with lyrics)
「地図を眺めているうちに、
『何があっても、ここに行ってみなくっちゃ』
という気持ちになってしまう場所がある。
そして多くの場合、
それはなぜか遠くて不便なところなんだ。
そこにどんな風景があるのか、
そこでどんなことが行われているのか、
とにかく知りたくてたまらなくなる。
それははしかみたいなものなんだ。
だから他人に、
その情熱の出どころを指し示すことはできない。
純粋な意味での好奇心。
説明のつかないインスピレーション。」
「1Q84」 (via myudai)
To love is to suffer.
To avoid suffering, one must not love.
But then one suffers from not loving.
Therefore, to love is to suffer.
Not to love is to suffer.
To suffer is to suffer.
To be happy is to suffer.
To be happy is to love.
To be happy, then, is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy.
Therefore, to be unhappy, one must love, or love to suffer, or suffer from too much happiness.
Woody Allen, Love and Death (via durianquotes)
There are some things about myself I can’t explain to anyone. There are some things I don’t understand at all. I can’t tell what I think about things or what I’m after. I don’t know what my strengths are or what I’m supposed to do about them. But if I start thinking about these things in too much detail the whole thing gets scary. And if I get scared I can only think about myself. I become really self-centered, and without meaning to, I hurt people. So I’m not such a wonderful human being.
Haruki Murakami (via durianquotes)
for your bookmarker (Sinnyodou temple, Kyoto) by Marser on Flickr.
In dreams you don’t need to make any distinctions between things. Not at all. Boundaries don’t exist. So in dreams there are hardly ever collisions. Even if there are, they don’t hurt. Reality is different. Reality bites. Reality, reality.
Haruki Murakami, Sputnik Sweetheart (via durianquotes)
Beauty is nothing, beauty won’t stay. You don’t know how lucky you are to be ugly, because if people like you, you know it’s for something else.
Charles Bukowski (via durianquotes)
