And what if, in order to keep on living, I have to continue to accept myself?
My lascivious blood leaves me no choice but to lust for men. No matter how common I become, how ugly, how old, as long as there is life in my body I will go on wanting men. That's just my fate. Even i...
I suppose I’m the one responsible for destroying myself.
Com'è facile cadere per un essere umano, non trovi? mormorò, e Masako le rivolse uno sguardo pieno di compassione.Sì. Poi è come scendere precipitosamente per una china con una bicicletta senza freni....
To live and imagine. That's the job left for those of us who've survived.
This didn't make me sad exactly - it was more a feeling that my own world was too simple, too smooth, too boring and worthless. The most I could do was have another name, Ninna Hori.

I got up on time this morning, boarded the train, changed to the subway, and worked like an aggressive career woman in one of the biggest corporations around. At night I transformed into a prostitute...
I don’t think I could blurt it out to Yuzan or Kirarin, though. They’d just say, Hmm. You could be right, their eyes dreamily looking around for a bit, but then, as soon as the subject changed, they’d...
Kazue's journals depict an absolutely sublime struggle, the struggle between an individual and the rest of the world. Kazue lost the battle, ended up completely alone, and died hungry for some measure...

The thing we are most proud of and the thing we are most ashamed of are but the front and back of the same coin. They torture and thrill all at once.
Our gods did not come to us in any specific form, but we held them in our hearts and understood them in our own way.
Here was a man who wanted what no one had wanted before: he wanted to get to know the inner workings of the doll-like woman who was me. Karl wasn't interested in me; neither was Johnson. But Kijima's...
For a nymphomaniac like myself, I suppose there could be no job more suitable than prostitution; it is my God-given destiny. No matter how violent a man might be, or how ugly, at the moment we're in t...
But even a nice mom and dad like this can't really sense how their child's been assaulted by commercialism ever since she was little, how she's lived in fear of being eaten alive by the morons around...

Pritisnila je na gumb dvigala. Šla bo in kupila letalsko vozovnico. Svoboda, ki jo išče, je njena, ne Satakejeva, ne Jajoina, ne Jošijina, in prepričana je bila, da mora biti tam nekje zunaj. Če so se...
