“
The continuity... What makes music wonderful is the continuous beauty of its notes. Mozart once told the Emperor that he could not leave out a single note; life, too, is made up of continuous strands of DNA. When I think of that, I'm left with no choice but to accept that there exists a continuous and unstoppable thing called fate in this world. But on the other hand, if everything is decided through fate, that leads to the idea that all your hard work and happiness amount to nothing. That's the thing. That's what I ponder when I'm drawing an ode to humanity. Is there an answer to that?

『連続』…音楽のすばらしさは連続する音の美しさであり、モーツアルトは『音符一つとしてカットできない』と皇帝に向かって言ったし、生命も連続するDNAという鎖でできている。そう考えると、この世には連続するどうすることもできない「運命」で決定されているとなると、努力したり喜んでも仕方がないという考えも生まれてくる。そこなんですよ。人間賛歌を描いていて悩む点は。答えはあるのか?
