“I haven’t given up on the spiritual life; in fact, I need a steady inner grounding more than ever. In my questing, I’ve come around to unexpected answers....I had a revelation. It was nothing profound, really, but it has changed me ever since. I realized this: I do not need to find and follow the perfect plan. (What a relief!) What I truly need is people I can follow—older sisters, brothers, mentors, spiritual friends who have been this way before. In my search for people over plans, I’ve found my way to faithful Christian women and men from across centuries and cultures, each with challenges all their own yet very much like mine. Their varied stories are thrilling, heartening, extreme, bizarre, even quotidian. For all their flaws and eccentricities, they discover, even blunder into, a spirituality of amazement and encounter God’s presence shimmering everywhere.”

“But since I do happen to have a bit of ability to write novels, and have had some good luck on my side, plus a stubborn
streak (or, to put it more nicely, a consistency) that's proved helpful, I've been able, over thirty-five years, to write novels
as a profession. To this day it continues to amaze me. It really does. What I've wanted to talk about in this book is that very
sense of amazement, about the strong desire (or will, you might say) to hold onto the purity of that feeling of amazement.
Perhaps the past thirty-five years of my life have been the ardent pursuit to maintain that sense of amazement. It certainly
feels that way.”
― Haruki Murakami, Novelist as a Vocation

“When it's over, I want to say: all my life I was a bride married to amazement. I was the bridegroom, taking the world into my arms. When it's over, I don't want to wonder if I have made of my life something particular, and real. I don't want to find myself sighing and frightened, or full of argument. I don't want to end up simply having visited this world.”
