More From Haruki Murakami

Wherever snow falls, or water flows, or birds fly, wherever day and night meet in twilight, wherever the blue heaven is hung by clouds, or sown with stars, wherever are forms with transparent boundaries, wherever are outlets into celestial space, wherever is danger, and awe, and love, there is beauty, plenteous as rain, shed for thee, and though thou shouldest walk the world over, thou shalt not be able to find a condition inopportune or ignoble.

She comes to me when she wants to be fed. and after i feed her -- guess what -- she's off to wherever she wants to be in the house, until the next time she gets hungry. she's smart enough to know she can't feed herself. she's actually a very smart cat. she gets loved. she gets adoration. she gets petted. she gets fed. and she doesn't have to do anything for it, which is why i say this cat's taught me more about women, than anything my whole life.
Smart Stupid Cat
We're headed for what is called type 1 civilization, planetary civilization. type 2 would be stellar civilization, like star trek. type 3 civilization would be galactic, like star wars. we are type 0. we get our energy from dead plants, oil and coal. but the question is: will we make it? will we make the transition from type 0 to type 1? it's not clear.

But that wasn´t the first time i ever saw her. i saw her in the hallways at school, and at my mother’s false funeral, and walking the sidewalks in the abnegation sector. i saw her, but i didn’t see her; no one saw her the way she truly was until she jumped. i suppose a fire that burns that bright is not meant to last.

To attract attractive people, you must be attractive. to attract powerful people, you must be powerful. to attract committed people, you must be committed. instead of going to work on them, you go to work on yourself. if you become, you can attract.

I nodded. a man's world. but what did it mean? that men whistled and stared and yelled things at you, and you had to take it, or you get raped or beat up? a man's world meant places men could go but not women. it meant they had more money,and didn't have kids, not the way women did, to look after every second. and it meant that women loved them more than they loved the women, that they could want something with all their hearts, and then not.

An apocryphal story - the word "apocryphal" here means "obviously untrue" - tells of two people, long ago, who were very bored, and that instead of complaining about it they sat up all night and invented the game of chess so that everyone else in the world, on evenings when there is nothing to do, can also be bored by the perplexing and tedious game they invented.

[ digital revolution ] only has allowed me to work faster, editing digitally, which i'm doing right now, a film on volcanoes. i can edit almost as fast as i'm thinking, editing with celluloid means always searching for this little reel of film, and number it, and scribble on it with some sort of pens, and gluing it together, and working on a flatbed. it's much, much slower.
