Ryū Murakami Quote

Hey, take a good look, isn't the world still under your feet? I'm on this ground, and on this same ground are trees and grass and ants carrying sand to their nests, little girls chasing rolling balls, and puppies running.This ground runs under countless houses and mountains and rivers and seas, under everywhere. And I'm on it.Don't be scared, I'd told myself, the world is still under me.
