Haruki Murakami Ends Quotations

My point is: in this whole wide world the only person you can depend on is you.

I am here, alone, at the end of the world. I reach out and touch nothing.”.

Tell me, Doctor, are you afraid of death?" "I guess it depends on how you die.

Still, in the end, we all die just the same.

It seems to me, though, that you always understand very well what I can't say very well. Trouble is I end up being even worse at saying things well.

It depends on which reality you take and which reality I take.” (p. 318).

I don't want our relationship to end like this. You're one of the very few friends I have, and it hurts not being able to see you. When am I going to be able to talk to you? I want you to tell me that much, at least.

As long as there's such a thing as time, everybody's damaged in the end, changed into something else. It always happens, sooner or later.

Is it possible, in the final analysis, for one human being to achieve perfect understanding of another? We can invest enormous time and energy in serious efforts to know another person, but in the end, how close can we come to that person's essence? We convince ourselves that we know the other person well, but do we really know anything important about anyone?

Don't let thoughts of me hold you back. Just do what you want to do. Otherwise, I might end up taking you with me, and that is the one thing I don't want to do. I don't want to interfere with your life.

Listen up - there's no war that will end all wars.

Start making excuses and there's no end to it. I can't live that kind of life.

Nobody likes being alone that much. I don't go out of my way to make friends, that's all. It just leads to disappointment.

Even if we could turn back, we'd probably never end up where we started.
