Quote by Richard Lloyd Parry

“The true mystery of Okawa school was the one we all face. No mind can encompass it; consciousness recoils in panic. The idea of conspiracy is what we supply to make sense of what will never be sensible— the fiery fact of death. Extinction of life: extinction of a perfect, a beloved child: for eternity. Impossible! the soul cries out. What are they hiding?”

“Everybody knew what she was called, but nobody anywhere knew her name. Disremembered and unaccounted for, she cannot be lost because no one is looking for her, and even if they were, how can they call her if they don't know her name? Although she has claim, she is not claimed. In the place where long grass opens, the girl who waited to be loved and cry shame erupts in her separate parts, to make it easy for the chewing laughter to swallow her all away. It was not a story to pass on.”

“Take time for yourself, do things that make you happy, find a quiet corner to reflect on your life, and get some proper rest! If you want to be useful to others, you must put yourself first; relieve your fatigue, become stronger, clear your mind, and revitalize your body; and prepare yourself physically and psychologically to carry the burdens of life, both your own and those of others!”
