    “Until the stars burn out, and all worlds end, until the planets collide, and the suns wither, until the moon’s light dies, and the rivers and seas run out, until I grow so old that my memories fade away, and my tongue cannot say your name, until my heart beats for the last time, only then .. will I maybe stop, maybe.”
    Ahmed Khaled Tawfik

    Haruki Murakami
    “Once, long ago, when I was still young, when the memories were far
    more vivid than they are now, I often tried to write about her. But I
    couldn't produce a line. I knew that if that first line would come, the
    rest would pour itself onto the page, but I could never make it happen.
    Everything was too sharp and clear, so that I could never tell where to
    start -the way a map that shows too much can sometimes be useless.
    Now, though, I realize that all I can place in the imperfect vessel of
    writing are imperfect memories and imperfect thoughts. The more the
    memories of Naoko inside me fade, the more deeply I am able to
    understand her. I know, too, why she asked me not to forget her.
    Naoko herself knew, of course. She knew that my memories of her
    would fade. Which is precisely why she begged me never to forget
    her, to remember that she had existed.”
    Haruki Murakami, Norwegian Wood
