Yuuko Ichihara — memorable quote from xxxHOLiC

“Courage is a word of justice. It means the quality of mind that enables one to face apprehension with confidence and resolution. It is not right to use it as an excuse to kill someone.”

“If all you do is feed your dog, you'll get your hand bitten eventually. Let him out for a walk every once in a while.”

“The inexperienced draw attention by acting differently.”

“The vast ocean of words. Without a means to cross the ocean, we can only stand and watch keeping the words we desperately want to express inside. A dictionary is a ship that is able to cross that ocean.”

“Clausewitz, he pointed out that no matter how carefully one plans, on the battlefield, even the smallest of details can cause setbacks. Regardless of how well-thought it is, armchair strategizing only works in the realm of theory. Unexpected troubles, or uncontrollable factors such as weather. Operations face those sorts of troubles. They are the cause of strife on the battlefield.”
