Jirou Hatori — memorable quote from Zettai Shounen

“If all you do is feed your dog, you'll get your hand bitten eventually. Let him out for a walk every once in a while.”

“The vast ocean of words. Without a means to cross the ocean, we can only stand and watch keeping the words we desperately want to express inside. A dictionary is a ship that is able to cross that ocean.”

“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.”

“You must not hope for society to change for you. Do not reject society. To put it bluntly, that is simply a waste of time.”

“Luxury means something with no meaning at all”
