Barry Eisler Quote

We found a cab. I got in first and she slid in behind me. She told the driver to take us to 3-3-5 Shibuya-ku, south side of Roppongi-dori. I smiled. Tantra? I asked. She looked at me, perhaps a little disappointed. You know it? It’s been around for a long time. Good place. I didn’t think you’d know it. You’re a little… older. I laughed. If she’d been trying to get a rise out of me, she had missed the mark. I’m never going to be sensitive about my age. Most of the people I knew when I was younger are already dead. That I’m still breathing is actually a point of pride. Tantra is like sex, I told her, smiling a little indulgently. Every generation thinks it’s the one that discovered it.
