Reading Notes W10: Toshio Mori, Part A

'An egg is when you are walled in, a prisoner within yourself. I am free, I have broken the egg long ago. You see I am. I am not hidden beneath a shell and I am not enclosed in one either. I am walking on earth with my good feet, and also I am drinking and enjoying, but am sad on seeing so many eggs in the world, unbroken, untasted, and rotten.' (Mori, 587).
