Quote by Haruki Murakami

“Todos nós (e refiro-me a todas as pessoas, tanto as normais como as que não o são) somos seres imperfeitos vivendo num mundo imperfeito. Não devemos encarar a vida de maneira tão rígida, medindo as nossas ações com uma régua e o ângulo das questões com um transferidor, não te parece?”

As a result, nobody can do anything. Obviously. I mean, it's basically impossible for everybody's justice to prevail or everybody's happiness to triumph, so chaos takes over.”
