I often stay in Tokyo's Daikanyama neighbourhood. You can go for a peaceful morning run along the Meguro river, and it is particularly incredible during cherry blossom season.

The significance of the cherry blossom tree in Japanese culture goes back hundreds of years. In their country, the cherry blossom represents the fragility and the beauty of life. It's a reminder that life is almost overwhelmingly beautiful but that it is also tragically short.

Homaro Cantu

The cherry blossom tree is truly a sight to behold, especially when it is in full riotous bloom. There are several varieties of the cherry blossom tree, and while most of them produce flowering branches full of small pinkish-hued flowers, some of them produce actual cherries.

Homaro Cantu

To stay present in everyday life, it helps to be deeply rooted within yourself; otherwise, the mind, which has incredible momentum, will drag you along like a wild river.

Eckhart Tolle

We complain and complain, but we have lived and seen the blossom -apple, pear, cherry, plum, almond blossom - in the sun; and the best among us cannot pretend they deserve - or could contrive - anything better.

J. B. Priestley

I would never predict a run like that. Last season, that's beyond reality. I think we can go 25-14. I think we can play 10 games over .500, even more than (that) over .500, and that would be a great run. Any time you go 30-15 or something like that, that's pretty incredible basketball.

George Karl

I trained for the marathon. I run along the East River, and I used to run all the way down Manhattan, up the West Side and back home.

Amy Carlson

...a river season will last as long as it takes you to reach your new place. If you get into the river and let it take you where you need to be, your river season will last an afternoon. But if you fear change and struggle and hold on to the rocks, the river season will last and last. It will not end until your body becomes exhausted, your grip weakens, your hands slide off the rocks and the current takes you to your new place.

Andrew Kaufman

In the cherry blossom's shade there's no such thing as a stranger.

Kobayashi Issa

On Sunday morning I went out for a while in the neighbourhood; I bought some raisin bread. The day was warm but a little sad, as Sundays often are in Paris, especially when one doesn't believe in God.

Michel Houellebecq

Between our two lives there is also the life of the cherry blossom.

Matsuo Basho

Koishikawa Korakuen Garden - one of Tokyo's oldest Japanese gardens, and one of the best spots for viewing the cherry blossoms.

Peter Marino

I know the joy of fishes in the river through my own joy, as I go walking along the same river.

Zhuangzi

Don't swim against the current. Stay in the river, become the river; and the river is already going to the sea. This is the great teaching.

Rajneesh

Cherry trees will blossom every year; But I'll disappear for good, One of these days.

Philip Whalen

I grew up in the countryside and wanted to go to Tokyo. I had Tokyo complex.

Makoto Shinkai

In the rainy season, sometimes to get to the first lesson we had to run really quick, because we had to cross the river to school and we'd have to go up and down the bank to find a place to cross because there is no bridge.

Haile Gebrselassie
