Tak Suka Air Putih

Kisah ini berdasarkan kejadian nyata saat saya masih berkantor di Jakarta. Perbincangan antara dua orang kawan, saat istirahat siang. Sila menyimak:

Indro : Aku tak suka minum air putih(kemudian meminum air putih dari botol)

Muhajir : Kenapa ?

Indro : Tak ada rasanya.

Muhajir :(dengan tatapan kosong) Sini airnya, kuludahi, biar ada rasanya.

Indro :(terbengong sambil menatap Muhajir).

*Menurut saya ini lucu.

Saat Murakami Bicara Tentang Berlari

"One aspect that I have gained from running in the past 22 years that has most pleased me is that it has helped me develop respect about my own physical being.

I think to realize this is very important for all human beings.

To have such respect for your own body makes it possible to do the same for others. If more people on the earth shared this same feeling, there should be no terrorism or wars. Obviously, to our great disappointment, things are not that simple, that much I understand."

Haruki Murakami on Runner's World August 2004 (Interviewed by Yishane Lee)
