“People remember their high school days as the high point of their lives. People say these things because everyone holds fond memories of their time in high school; however, I doubt that every high school student would want to remember their school life that way. For example, if neither studying, nor sports, nor socializing are of interest to someone, what then? What if there are students who prefer to keep a low profile? Though I guess that would be a pretty lonely way to live.”Oreki Houtarou—Hyouka000

“A joke only lasts for a moment, if it leaves a misunderstanding, it becomes a lie.”Satoshi Fukube—Hyouka000

“I won't ever be the best at anything. Or rather, you might say that I've stopped trying to be.”Satoshi Fukube—Hyouka000
“Even if I did win, it was boring. How can it be interesting unless you win in an interesting way?”Satoshi Fukube—Hyouka000
“If you can never get angry at anything, that probably means you have nothing that you like, either.”Eru Chitanda—Hyouka000
“You don't have to worry about being special or normal compared to everyone else! It doesn't matter who it is. So as long as they think you're special, then you're special.”Eru Chitanda—Hyouka000
