When I was little, I had this science book. There was a section on 'What would happen to the world if there was no friction?' Answer: 'Everything on earth would fly into space from the centrifugal force of revolution.' That was my mood.
Haruki MurakamiSomeone once said that nothing costs more and yields less benefit than revenge,โ Aomame said. โWinston Churchill. As I recall it, though, he was making excuses for the British Empireโs budget deficits. It has no moral significance.
Haruki MurakamiI myself, as I'm writing, don't know who did it. The readers and I are on the same ground. When I start to write a story, I don't know the conclusion at all and I don't know what's going to happen next. If there is a murder case as the first thing, I don't know who the killer is. I write the book because I would like to find out. If I know who the killer is, there's no purpose to writing the story.
