Shinobu Oshino — memorable quote from Bakemonogatari

“This blank space represents infinite potential. One day, it may become anything.”

“I believe the difference between those up there and me is the question of whether you have given up or not.”

“People... are not born equal. That's the hard truth I learned at age four. But that... was my first and last setback.”

“It's pretty hard just to survive as a human being. The world's a big place and there's a lot of stuff I don't understand, but I think there must be something important out there. I mean, that's what I want to believe. If I keep believing that while playing music, then maybe I'll be able to change the world just a bit.”

“I had a lot of dreams as a child. I wanted many people to listen to the piano. I wanted to fly. I wanted to communicate with animals. Those dreams have all pretty much come true. Right now, I have a different dream. What mankind can imagine is what mankind can make into a reality. The imagination is a weapon. It is far superior than anything else in the world.”
