"The beautiful is always bizarre."

"What strange phenomena we find in a great city, all we need do is stroll about with our eyes open. Life swarms with innocent monsters."

"Life has but one true charm: the charm of the game. But what if we’re indifferent to whether we win or lose?"

"To be away from home and yet find oneself everywhere at home; to see the world, to be at the centre of the world, and yet remain hidden from the world."

"To the solemn graves, near a lonely cemetery, my heart like a muffled drum is beating funeral marches."
