“If what I wished for was granted to me, if what I wanted was given to me. Then, as I thought, I wouldn't wish for anything nor want anything. Because the things you were granted and the things you were given were surely shams that would one day be lost. The things you wished for had no shape and the things you wanted were untouchable. Or possibly, they might be the most wonderful treasures that would become nothing if you were to touch them.”

“In this small universe, it's an endless cycle of winning and losing until you begin losing your mind.”
“Anything I would never want to lose is always lost. It is a given that everything that is worth wanting will be lost the moment I obtain it. There's nothing worth pursuing at the cost of prolonging a life of suffering.”
“Whether you're alive, dead, or living dead... Loneliness is still loneliness... It's the same thing... Nothing changes. There are no different categories of loneliness. It's just loneliness.”
“It's not like something is going to happen because I believe in it. Sometimes you end up worse off because you believed in something too much. There are times it's tough to believe in something.”
“Where in this world can a sane man be found? We're the same. We're all the same. None of us understands what it means to love all. Or the meaning of life...Or the meaning of death...Or the meaning of our own battles.”
