"Books will always be essential for some people. And bookshops are a place for those people to discover the books that will become important to them. I will never allow bookshops to vanish from this world."

The Earth goes around.

We gaze at the moon, illuminated by the sun. Feet on the ground and facing the sky, we go forward, changing as we do.

In order to deliver a larger truth to the person looking down at an open page.

“While I do believe that it was hard work for my mother to give birth to me, it also took me every ounce of my own strength to endure the extremely difficult process of being born. After all that time inside my mother's belly growing into a human being with nobody to guide me, all of a sudden I was thrust into an entirely new and strange environment. Imagine what an awful shock it must have been to come in contact with air for the first time, not knowing where I was. Of course I've forgotten what that felt like now. But it's why, whenever I feel happy or glad about something, I count my blessings and think to myself, 'Now, wasn't that worth all the effort of being born?’”

— What You Are Looking for is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama (English translation by Alison Watts), p. 140
