12．Good evening．I have come to Jerusalem today as a novelist，which is to say as a professional spinner of lies．
Today，however，I have no intention of lying．I will try to be as honest as I can．There are only a few days in the year when I do not engage in telling lies，and today happens to be one of them．
So let me tell you the truth．In Japan a fair number of people advised me not to come here to accept the Jerusalem Prize．Some even warned me they would instigate a boycott of my books if I came．The reason for this，of course，was the fierce fighting that was raging in Gaza．
Finally，however，after careful consideration，I made up my mind to come here．One reason for my decision was that all too many people advised me not to do it．Perhaps，like many other novelists，I tend to do the exact opposite of what I am told．If people are telling me--and especially if they are warning me--"Don't go there，""Don't do that，"I tend to want to"go there"and"do that"．It's in my nature，you might say，as a novelist．Novelists are a special breed．They cannot genuinely trust anything they have not seen with their own eyes or touched with their own hands．
And that is why I am here．I chose to come here rather than stay away．I chose to see for myself rather than not to see．I chose to speak to you rather than to say nothing．Please do allow me to deliver a message，one very personal message．It is something that I always keep in mind while I am writing fiction．I have never gone so far as to write it on a piece of paper and paste it to the wall：rather，it is carved into the wall of my mind，and it goes something like this：
"Between a high，solid wall and an egg that breaks against it，I will always stand on the side of the egg．"
I have only one reason to write novels，and that is to bring the dignity of the individual soul to the surface and shine a light upon it．The purpose of a story is to sound an alarm，to keep a light trained on the System in order to prevent it from tangling our souls in its web and demeaning them．I truly believe it is the novelist's job to keep trying to clarify the uniqueness of each individual soul by writing stories--stories of life and death，stories of love，stories that make people cry and quake with fear and shake with laughter．This is why we go on，day after day，concocting fictions with utter seriousness．
