More From Haruki Murakami

There is a story in zen circles about a man and a horse. the horse is galloping quickly, and it appears that the man on the horse is going somewhere important. another man standing alongside the road, shouts, «where are you going?» and the first man replies, «i don't know! ask the horse!» this is also our story. we are riding a horse, and we don't know where we are going and we can't stop. the horse is our habit energy pulling us along, and we are powerless.

A big business man was telling henry ford about a coach driver of super-expertness with his whip. the driver was telling how he could flick a fly off his horse's ear with his whip-and, a fly alighting just then, he promptly did so. next he spied a grasshopper beside the road, and he flicked it off with equal dexterity. a little further along the road the passenger noticed an insect on a bush, and nudged the driver to get him. not on your life, replied the master of the whip. that there insect is a hornet sitting on his nest with an organization behind him. i leave him alone.

An engineer can look at the data, but he needs a translator from the cockpit - the driver - to understand it completely. for example, only the driver can tell you why he abruptly takes his foot off the gas pedal at a certain point. the data doesn't necessarily tell the engineer whether the driver made a mistake at that point or the car was acting up. the information the driver provides often helps determine the direction of development.

How the horse dominated the mind of the early races especially of the mediterranean! you were a lord if you had a horse. far back, far back in our dark soul the horse prances...the horse, the horse! the symbol of surging potency and power of movement, of action in man!

I do not despise genius-indeed, i wish i had a basketful of it. but yet, after a great deal of experience and observation, i have become convinced that industry is a better horse to ride than genius. it may never carry any man as far as genius has carried individuals, but industry-patient, steady, intelligent industry-will carry thousands into comfort, and even celebrity; and this it does with absolute certainty.
