Amor Quote by Haruki Murakami
““Até à data, concebia a morte como uma realidade independente, separada da vida. É certo que, um dia, no futuro, a morte estenderá os seus braços para nos envolver. Até lá, porém, estamos livres dela. Para mim, era a verdade absoluta e lógica. A vida está deste lado, a morte do outro. Eu estou deste lado, e não do outro.””
