“Why do you like jellyfish so much? I asked. I dont know. I guess I think theyre cute, she said. But one thing did occur to me when I was really focused on them. What we see before us is just one tiny part of the world. We get into the habit of thinking, This is the world, but thats not true at all. The real world is in a much darker and deeper place than this, and most of it is occupied by jellyfish and things. We just happen to forget all that. Dont you agree? Two thirds of the earths surface is ocean, and all we can see of it with the naked eye is the surface: the skin. We hardly know anything about whats beneath the skin.” ― Haruki Murakami, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle
