Nishimura Souichi — memorable quote from Baka & Test: Summon the Beasts

“Listen up you guys! This is the final battle! Grit your teeth and get ready to go with all your might! We're only aiming to win! It doesn't matter whether we're idiots or ordinary people or smart people! Everyone's to do whatever they can do! We're definitely... going to win this battle! Just watch, 3rd years...! I'm going to smash those heads of yours and show you how capable these idiots you look down on really are!”

“A real man never goes back on his words!”

“Stand up! lift your faces! Take up your weapons! Look at that boy. He's so weak and fragile a breath could blow him away and he's unarmed! He is a powerless boy, whose defeat I have seen with my own eyes! He's weaker than anyone else here! Yet he's shouting louder than anyone that we can still do this so how can we sit down, with downcast gaze? If our weakest man has not given up how is kneeling in defeat acceptable for us? Did you come this far to wallow in shame?”

“Whether in a brawl or anything else, bones can be broken but the spirit must not yield. Once a decision was made, it must be upheld until the bitter end.”

“Every week, when it is time, they stick to the TV. They watch my actions in the comfort of their families after dinner. Children watch my actions and their hearts leap. They see me stand up to evil spirits and... they know what courage is! Do you understand, boy? With them watching, I can't run away from the enemy”
