Quotes about strong
strong electric-shock light
Kumiko and I felt something for each other from the beginning. It was not one of those strong, impulsive feelings that can hit two people like an electric shock when they first meet, but something quieter and gentler, like two tiny lights traveling in tandem through a vast darkness and drawing imperceptibly closer to each other as they go. As our meetings grew more frequent, I felt not so much that I had met someone new as that I had chanced upon a dear old friend. Haruki Murakami
strong mind heavy-things

Haruki Murakami
strong powerful philosophy

Let them argue from the same first principles, but let them do it in a bed, or a boat, or a balloon. Gilbert K. Chesterton
