"You are not lost. It's just that your own thoughts are being kept from you, or hidden away. But the mind is strong. It survives even without thought. Even with everything taken away, it holds a seed-your self. You must believe in your powers."

— Haruki Murakami Hard-Boiled Wonderland and the End of the World (1985)
