Turning Point: 1997-2008

Highlights

I am a person whose negative aspects — brutality, resentment, hatred — are much stronger than other people’s. Though I have dangerous moments when my control fails, when I suppress my negative aspects and live my life normally, I am thought of as a good person. That is not my real character. I don’t know what kind of person I really am. (via Turning Point: 1997-2008 by Hayao Miyazaki)

There seems to be another “Hayao Miyazaki” unfamiliar to me. I try not to care about this discrepancy anymore. Yet when I see this collection of my writings and my statements, even I can’t guarantee that it is the real Hayao Miyazaki. (via Turning Point: 1997-2008 by Hayao Miyazaki)
