Yukari Hayasaka — memorable quote from Paradise Kiss

“I want you to please understand the scales of my heart will always be swaying back and forth. But there is something you should know. I will never lean to one side or the other due to the weight of gold coins.”

“If you take someone at puberty, a teen... introduce him or her to a member of the opposite sex around the same age and say, "This is the person who was meant for you"... and then go on to spend a lot of time together... why wouldn't you fall for them?”

“People don't fall in love based on looks. And that's a scientific fact.”

“Love is more afraid of change than destruction.”

“When you fall in love with someone, you want everything from them. Its only natural to feel that way... but real love can only happen when you want what's best for the other person and never ask for anything in return.”
