Also his daughter Zelda Williams (33) paid tribute to her father on Twitter. She shared a quote from Japanese bestselling author Haruki Murakami (73): “Once the storm is over, you won’t be able to remember how you got through it, how you survived. You won’t even be sure whether the storm is really over. But one thing is for sure. When you get out of the storm, you won’t be the same person that went in.”
She added several contact points to the quote that people with suicidal thoughts can turn to. “I’m not asking for much, but if I may, please be gentle with your hearts today. I know I’m trying,” she wrote.
