Interviewer: Mishima, they say that you are an exhibitionist. Is this true, and if so, what do you intend to demonstrate by that?Mishima: Inevitably, all writers are now lying exhibitionists. As for myself, I practice physical exhibitionism because I am shy. Behind this mask, I can hide myself.Interviewer: Mishima, who are you, then?Mishima: I am a very serious Japanese writer. I do not like literature. It is a bit like a Don Juan not liking women.Interviewer: Mishima, you live here in a bourgeois setting; are you a bourgeois?Mishima: There is no bourgeoisie in Japan. There are three classes in our society: the descendants of samurai, the descendants of peasants, the descendants of merchants. As for myself... I am both the descendant of samurai and the descendant of peasants. I worked like a peasant... but I keep the samurai spirit.Interviewer: Do you consider yourself a political writer?Mishima: I am not a political writer. Like a cat or a lion, I do not burden myself with any mission.Interviewer: What do you think of democracy?Mishima: Democracy is a concept of political order and, so to speak, of technical order, imported into this country from foreign lands. I want politics to remain within a technical order, so I believe I am obliged to support democracy.Interviewer: What is the value of life for you?Mishima: I do not consider the value of life very high.Interviewer: Would it be all the same to you if you died?Mishima: No, I would be afraid to die. But I would above all like to die a quiet death. It seems to me that that is the politeness of a dead man toward those who survive him.Interviewer: What do you think of homosexuality?Mishima: It is a sentiment more ancient and more natural in Japan than love between the two sexes. But this long tradition was broken by the criticisms of American missionaries who came to settle in this country in the 19th century.Interviewer: Suicide for a Japanese is... in the life of a Japanese, it is an important act. Does suicide find a justification in your eyes?Mishima: We have two kinds of suicide: that of the weak or the defeated, and that of the strong or the courageous. I detest the former and I admire the latter. Deep within themselves, the Japanese think that the ecstasy of love is identified with that of death in suicide. And more particularly in the sacrifice voluntarily consented to for sacred justice.
>>25039866>Sucks cocks>Kills himselfThis guy sucked and Japan is gay and belongs to nigerians and kurds
The japanese are a bunch of effeminate androgynous faggots
>>25039866lol what a gay
>>25039866Be honest, /lit/, how would your interview go?
>>25039903fpbp
>>25039866I get why some interviewees need questions ahead of time - particularly in the case of translation - but it's so fucking lame with they use that chance to think up pithy little one-liners to give the illusion of off-the-cuff wisdom or insightI bet Mishima spent days and days with notebook and pen in hand trying to think up that "Like a cat or a lion, I do not burden myself with any mission." line. What a tool.
>>25039866>deep insights like I admire courage and detest defeatismthey should've stoned this jap
>>25039975>t. doesn't have a rapier wit
>>25039903he's just like me fr fr
>>25039975Nothing he said struck me as rehearsed. Guess you just lack wit, is all.
>>25039903Do you know this was government propaganda or do you just not care?
>>25040025That he was an assmuncher? he said it himself
>>25040064Go on.
>>25040076Nigga Mishima was a sodomite and Japan needs kurds and nigerians
>>25040007>>25040010Haha. I forget that most people don't know what it's like to be a genius>>25040177There's little evidence he was having a lot of sex. Like most major artists he for the most part kept to himself. He seems to have deeply loved a woman when he was younger

Interviewer: Would it be all the same to you if you died?Anon: No, that would be a tragedy. But if journalists like you died or if all the pajeets died, the world would be a better place.
