Sakurako Kujō — memorable quote from Sakurako-san no Ashioto ni wa Shitai ga Umatteiru

“The strength of life lies in the possibility of dying.”

“What would you ask a grave, which can never reply? What do you pray for? Saying anything after someone's death is far too late.”

“No one fears death. They fear the life that leads up to death. If one could die without suffering, no one would fear death, right? Being alive is, itself, an exception. The natural state of things is death. And life is, itself, a kind of sickness. When the illness is cured, your life vanishes.”

“A great enough sorrow can stop time, but someday, time will start moving again. No matter how many years may pass.”

“Sorry, a trick is nothing but a puzzle mankind came up with. If you use your head, you can uncover the logical answer. It’s disappointing. No matter the explanation I think of, I cannot understand why one person would kill another. Even if I can see why, I can’t understand why.”
