Quote by Haruki Murakami

“As is true of most people, I imagine, I had experienced a number of turning points in my life, where I could go either left or right. And each time I chose one, right or left. (There were times when there was a clear-cut reason, but most of the time there wasn't. And it wasn't always like I was making a choice, but more like the choice itself chose me.) And now here I was, a first person singular. If I'd chosen a different direction, most likely I wouldn't be here. But still — who is that in the mirror.”
