Sunohara Youhei — memorable quote from Clannad

“No matter how cold and distant people may become, on the inside something warm and precious always remains, something that never changes. To me, that’s what family is like.”

“Meeting you was the best thing that ever happened to me. You made me so happy. I don’t want you to be lost or afraid or anything like that. From here on out, I know things might be hard sometimes. But no matter what may await, please don’t regret meeting me.”

“We really are weak creatures, but that's why we can strive to become stronger. Even if you feel it's useless, each step we take leads to something great. That's why I'm sure we'll be able to change. Because we're weak... and because death is inevitable. Humans try their best to live and end up becoming stronger.”

“But for me, just having fun wasn't enough. The support of my friends was equally important. They encouraged me through my struggles. They're all so different from me, but they're honest and determined. We fought, but we also worked together. I know my mother had a friend like that too. Someone to have fun with. Someone to share her worries. Mom, I have finished the song we promised to write. Sorry it took so long. I'm glad I could create this song with you and my friends. I'll treasure it always for bringing us together.”

“My mother told me something long ago. She said “The world belongs to you just as much as you belong to the world”. For you were born and that gives you the right to exist.”
