(Toru, while thinking in the dark well) "I saw myself as the wind-up bird, flying through the summer sky, lighting on the branch of a huge tree somewhere, winding the world's spring." "Have you ever had that feeling – that you'd like to go to a whole different place and become a whole different self?"
Bluebird (Bukowski)
