"I'm Coming to the Garden..... No Sound, No Memory" refers to the second-to-last line of the novel The Decay of the Angel by Yukio Mishima.

There was no other sound. The garden was empty. He had come, thought Honda, to a place that had no memories, nothing.

Yukio Mishima, translated by Edward Seidensticker, The Decay of the Angel
