"Everybody's born with some different thing at
the core of their existence. And that thing, whatever it is, becomes like a heat
source that runs each person from the inside. I have one too, of course. Like
everybody else. But sometimes it gets out of hand. It swells or shrinks inside
me, and it shakes me up. What I'd really like to do is find a way to communicate
that feeling to another person. But I can't seem to do it. They just don't get
it. Of course, the problem could be that I'm not explaining it very well, but I
think it's because they're not listening very well. They pretend to be
listening, but they're not, really. So I get worked up sometimes, and I do some
crazy things."
Haruki Murakami (The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle)
