“There are a dozen factors that make Japanese food so special- ingredient obsession, technical precision, thousands of years of meticulous refinement- but chief among them is one simple concept: specialization. In the Western world, where miso-braised short ribs share menu space with white truffle ceviche, restaurants cast massive nets to try to catch as many fish as possible, but in Japan, the secret to success is choosing one thing and doing it fucking well. Forever. There are people who dedicate their entire lives to grilling beef intestines, slicing blowfish, kneading buckwheat into tangles of chewy noodles- microdisciplines with infinite room for improvement. The concept of shokunin, an artisan deeply and singularly dedicated to his or her craft, is at the core of Japanese culture.”

“To anyone who fantasizes about (*ahem* masturbates to) the person of their dreams, despite wondering if they exist. Don't worry, they do. Even if they're a little different than what you expected, I can promise they're even better than anything you've ever imagined. The key to finding them (or them finding you) is often just a matter of first falling in love with [and treating yourself] the way you dream of them doing so with you. Easier said than done, I know, but if it's any consolation, I love you. (Dedication)”
