this quote should've been number 1: She’d become so beautiful, it defied understanding. Never had I feasted my eyes on such beauty. It transcended all concepts within the boundaries of my awareness. She was at one with her ears, gliding down the oblique face of time like a protean beam of light. "You are extraordinary." I said after catching my breath. "I know." she said. "These are my ears in their unblocked state."
It was cool hearing some quotes from a couple books I've not read yet, like Sputnik Sweatheart. I'm surprised there was not a Windup Bird Chronicle quote in this list. It's been a while since I read that, but I remember being taken with some prose.
I love that Haruki Murakami's favorite rock band is Red Hot Chili Peppers. One of the most poetic authors of the last century can still appreciate lyrics that go "ding dang dong dong ding dang dong dong ding dang"

"Velichor Ventures is the best underknown channel on youtube." - Haruki Murakami, probably
I’m not sure if he’s ever even been on TH-cam. If he is even a regular podcast enjoyer I would be shocked.

Wind Up Bird is one of my favorites! Might just mean I have to do a second video.
