More From Haruki Murakami

I've been making a list of the things they don't teach you at school. they don't teach you how to love somebody. they don't teach you how to be famous. they don't teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. they don't teach you how to walk away from someone you don't love any longer. they don't teach you how to know what's going on in someone else's mind. they don't teach you what to say to someone who's dying. they don't teach you anything worth knowing.

There should be a class on drugs. there should be a class on sex education-a real sex education class-not just pictures and diaphragms and 'un-logical' terms and things like that.....there should be a class on scams, there should be a class on religious cults, there should be a class on police brutality, there should be a class on apartheid, there should be a class on racism in america, there should be a class on why people are hungry, but there are not, there are classes on gym, physical education, let's learn volleyball.

Facts are neutral until human beings add their own meaning to those facts. people make their decisions based on what the facts mean to them, not on the facts themselves. the meaning they add to facts depends on their current story … facts are not terribly useful to influencing others. people don’t need new facts—they need a new story.

You can't teach talent. you can't teach inspiration. you can teach people critical facilities. you can give them techniques. you can teach discipline. and you can teach them about the business.
Teaching Inspiration Discipline
Every singer has three or four or five techniques, and you can force them together in different combinations. some of the techniques you discard along the way, and pick up others. but you do need them. it's just like anything. you have to know certain things about what you're doing that other people don't know. singing has to do with techniques and how many you use at the same time. one alone doesn't work. there's no point to going over three. but you might interchange them whenever you feel like it. it's a bit like alchemy.
People Singing Together
Though methods play an important role in the early stage, the techniques should not be too mechanical, complex or restrictive. if we cling blindly to them, we shall eventually become bound by their limitations. remember, you are expressing the techniques and not doing the techniques. if somebody attacks you, your response is not technique no.1, stance no. 2, section 4, paragraph 5. instead you simply move in like sound and echo, without any deliberation. it is as though when i call you, you answer me, or when i throw you something, you catch it. it's as simple as that - no fuss, no mess.

I look at everything. god gave me eyes and i look at women and men and subway excavations and moving pictures and the little flowers of the field. i casually inspect the universe.

Even when i detach, i care. you can be separate from a thing and still care about it. if i wanted to detach completely, i would move my body away. i would stop the conversation midsentence. i would leave the bed. instead, i hover over it for a second. i glance off in another direction. but i always glance back at you.
