「那海浪只差一點沒有捕捉到我。但另一方面卻吞走了對我來說非常重要的東西，把那帶到別的世界去。我花了漫長的歲月，才再一次發現並復元，那是無法復回的漫長而貴重的歲月。」-p.97 〈第七個男人〉《萊辛頓的幽靈》by 村上春樹

"It just barely missed me, but in my place it swallowed everything that mattered most to me and swept it off to another world. I took years to find it again and to recover from the experience- precious years that can never be replaced. -p.155 〈The Seventh Man〉《Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman》by Haruki Murakami  Translated by Jay Rubin

That wave only missed finishing me off by hair's breadth. But instead it drank up the most essential part of me, and transported it to another world. It took such a long time before I was finally completely recovered. So much precious time."
Translated by Christopher Allison

我們在這人生中真正害怕的，不是恐怖本身。恐怖確實在那裏。……以各種形式出現，有時候壓倒我們的存在。但最可怕的是，背對著那恐怖，閉起眼睛。結果我們把自己內心最重要的東西，讓渡給了什麼。
