Kenshin Himura — memorable quote from Rurouni Kenshin

“Yhwach. You desired a world... Where fear would no longer be a burden. But... In a world without fear of death... People will never attain the hope that is to be found from casting their fears aside and preserving through them. While it is true that people can continue to press forward through the simple act of living... That is no way comparable to marching forward in the face of death, while doing their damndest to keep it at bay. That is why... That is why people have given that very march a unique and special name. "COURAGE."”

“You keep your nerves on edge and you're always ready to lash out. You distance yourself from everyone. It's because you are afraid of people. YOU are the weakest person in this village.”

“You are human, are you not? You are allowed to make mistakes.”

“If praying does not work, and words are ineffective... what's left is to fight.”

“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.”
