Berlin combines the culture of New York, the traffic system of Tokyo, the nature of Seattle and the history of, well, Berlin (Hiroshi Motomura, UCLA Law Professor, 2004)
I’m free, I think. I shut my eyes and think hard and deep about how free I am, but I can’t really understand what it means. All I know is I’m totally alone. All alone in an unfamiliar place, like some solitary explorer who’s lost his compass and his map. Is this what it means to be free? I don’t know, and I give up thinking about it. (by Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore)
