Never Give Up; For Even Rivers Someday Wash Dams Away.

He Was Like A Song I'd Heard Once In Fragments But Had Been Singing In My Mind Ever Since.

I Fell Into A Sound Sleep And Dreamed That I Was At A Banquet Back In Gion, Talking With An Elderly Man Who Was Explaining To Me That His Wife, Whom He'd Cared For Deeply, Wasn't Really Dead Because The Pleasure Of Their Time Together Lived On Inside Him.

Of Course, A Sign Doesn't Mean Anything Unless You Know How To Interpret It.

My Feelings Of Disgust Had Been So Loud Within Me, They’d Nearly Drowned Out Everything Else.
