“Who is it that gave people so many desires and then straight away refused to grant any of them? I don't know who it was that made this world, but I know I hate him.”
Kanoko Okamoto

“All'improvviso, un pensiero folgorò Fukuichi: frustrazione e tristezza sono l'eredità di ciascuno di noi. Per quanto si possa credere di godere a sufficienza di un bene qualunque, il godimento non è mai pieno, ma sarà sempre manchevole di qualcosa. Nessuno può avere tutto ciò che vuole, e ognuno è solo sulla faccia della terra.”
Kanoko Okamoto, A Riot of Goldfish

“No one as intense as he was could could possibly have managed to survive until almost thirty without thinking about death from time to time.”
Kanoko Okamoto
