Isao Kondō — memorable quote from Gintama

“Trying to shoulder the burden all by yourself? Don't be a stranger. Weep and ask for help. Lean on me with your runny nose. Cry when you feel like crying. Laugh when you feel like laughing. When you're tearing up with an ugly face, I'll give you a good cry with an uglier face. When you're laughing so hard your stomach hurts, I'll laugh in a louder voice. That's how it should be. It's far better to get dirty while living true to yourself, than to throw away yourself and die a clean death.”

“Okay. I will protect all of you. I will never let another friend die.”

“All for one, one for all! There are times when a man has no choice but to act!”

“Yeah, we've become friends. When you're in the same party, there will be times when things don't go smoothly, when you get angry, and when you fight. But they really are your precious friends. It doesn't matter why you became friends, but that you are friends at this moment.”

“...Don't treat me as a fool, you pervert woman ...Why do I have to prioritize you over my friends?”
