Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters

"All my life I have been acutely aware of a contradiction
in the very nature of my existence. For forty-five years
I struggled to resolve this dilemma by writing plays and
novels. The more I wrote, the more I realized mere words
were not enough. So I found another form of expression."
- Yukio Mishima
