Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately after they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish.

This is one more piece of advice I have for you: don’t get impatient. Even if things are so tangled up you can’t do anything, don’t get desperate or blow a fuse and start yanking on one particular thread before it’s ready to come undone. You have to realize it’s going to be a long process and that you’ll work on things slowly, one at a time.

Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood (via sunotes)

My good opinion once lost is lost forever.
