Quotes by Lafcadio Hearn
“ Japanese affection is not uttered in words; it scarcely appears even in the tone of voice; it is chiefly shown in acts of exquisite courtesy and kindness. ”
“ How sweet Japanese woman is! All the possibilities of the race for goodness seem to be concentrated in her. ”
“ Whatever doubts or vexations one has in Japan, it is only necessary to ask one's self: "Well, who are the best people to live with?" ”
“ My friends are much more dangerous than my enemies. These latter – with infinite subtlety – spin webs to keep me out of places where I hate to go, – and tell stories of me to people whom it would be vanity and vexation to meet; – and they help me so much by their unconscious aid that I almost love them. ”
“ Times are not good here. The city is crumbling into ashes. It has been buried under a lava flood of taxes and frauds and maladministrations so that it has become only a study for archaeologists. Its condition is so bad that when I write about it, as I intend to do soon, nobody will believe I am telling the truth. But it is better to live here in sackcloth and ashes than to own the whole state of Ohio. ”
