Quote by Haruki Murakami

“This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don't get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can't do anything, don't get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it's ready to come undone. You have to realize it's going to be a long process and that you'll work on things slowly, one at a time.”

“But for most people, it doesn't matter where they live. When they get up in the morning they're not looking to change the world. They want to have a cup of coffee and a piece of toast, put in their eight hours, and wrap up the day with a bottle of beer in front of the TV set. More or less it's what they'd be doing whether they lived in Atlanta, Georgia, or Nome, Alaska. And if it doesn't matter for most people where they live, it certainly doesn't matter where they're going.”

“Approach the spaces in your home this way: First, your living room and family room. Second, your own bedroom and the other bedrooms in the house. Third, all the clothes closets. Fourth, your home's bathrooms and the laundry room. Fifth, your kitchen and dining areas. Sixth, your home office. Seventh, your storage areas, including your toy room and craft work spaces. Eighth, your garage and yard. ...this represents the easier-to-harder progression.”

“I have occasionally railed against the quantity of objects in this house, and I know from his reaction that Edward’s perception of them is different from mine. For him, the house represents continuity and tradition, security and roots. If he were turned out of the place tomorrow, even if he were left with a livelihood and somewhere else to live, he would be shivering like a man whose coat has been ripped off his back in a storm.”

“Over me hangs a silver canopy of stars, like the diamonds set in chandeliers out East. But I'd take these stars and the pines stretching tall enough to rake them out of the dark sky over those diamonds any day. The beautiful stillness of the night overtakes me and my eyes well with tears. There is nothing more beautiful than one's home, one's stars, and the smell of the trees standing like sentinels around the land you love.”
