“Like a mist in the breeze, his memories changed shape, and with each change they grew fainter. 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 - Tony Takitani

“I want you always to remember me. Will you remember that I existed, and that I stood next to you here like this?”  ― Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood

“Most people look at cats and think ‘what a life’ — all we do is lie around the sun, never having to lift a finger. But cats’ lives aren’t all that idyllic. Cats are powerless, weak little creatures that injure easily. We don’t have shells like turtles, nor wings like birds. We can’t burrow to the ground like moles or change colors like a chameleon. The world has no idea how many cats are injured every day. How many of us meet a miserable end.”

— Mimi; Kafka on the Shore
