The Center for the Art of Translation has a link to a podcast of a discussion with Jay Rubin and Philip Gabriel.(link via the literary saloon) I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet, but it sounds good and I thought others here might be interested. :)

“Holding this soft, small living creature in my lap this way, though, and seeing how it slept with complete trust in me, I felt a warm rush in my chest. I put my hand on the cat's chest and felt his heart beating. The pulse was faint and fast, but his heart, like mine, was ticking off the time allotted to his small body with all the restless earnestness of my own.”

― Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicles (Vintage Books & Anchor Books)

“In this world, there is no absolute good, no absolute evil,” the man said.


“Good and evil are not fixed, stable entities but are continually trading places. A good may be transformed into an evil in the next second. And vice versa. Such was the way of the world that Dostoevsky depicted in The Brothers Karamazov. The most important thing is to maintain balance between the constantly moving good and evil. If you lean too much in either direction, it becomes difficult to maintain actual morals. Indeed, balance itself is good. This is what I mean when I say that I must die in order to keep things in balance.”
