Ryū Murakami Quote
These young men, in other words, represented a variety of types, but one thing they had in common was that they'd all given up on committing positively to anything in life. This was not their fault, however. The blame lay with a certain ubiquitous spirit of the times, transmitted to them by their respective mothers. And perhaps it goes without saying that this spirit of the times was in fact an oppressive value system based primarily upon the absolute certainty that nothing in this world was ever going to change.
