“The weakness that had accepted death now became the strength of wanting to live.”
“You suddenly appeared in front of me in this hell. The day that I would get to meet you...I always wanted to apologize to you...I only endured because of that! I kept on living.”
“I was afraid of the me that didn't know what he wanted to do. And the days just keep on moving. But even then If I keep on going like this, will I be able to see it? Maybe someday.”
“A day when everything is perfect, when everything will turn into memories, will eventually come. But I'll probably remember over and over again you were there and everyone else was there. The day we all searched for just one thing.”
“Maybe there've been times when I've been pissed and hated things, but it wasn't from this work. My dad's a no-show, my mom's lush and school sucks, but this job is the one damn thing I'm good at. If all the crap in my life hasn't screwed up yet, then neither will this and neither will you.”
“Fine! You heard fox boy, there's nothing we can do for the old hag if she's already limp. Just gotta keep on truckin, yes sir! I'm gonna go outside and make myself a nice, big, shiny first-place medal, sit in the sun, and have a stupendous friggin day, dammit!”
“I won't ask what you wish for. I only hope it comes true by your own two hands. (to Kyo)”
“It's not always easy to see the good in people. In some people, you might even doubt that it's there at all. But if you can somehow, find a way to believe...sometimes that's all it takes to help someone, to give them the strength to find the good in themselves.”
“[To Ritsu Sohma] Sometimes living can be hard, but it's only because we're alive that we can make each other laugh, cry...be happy! [thinking] If that's not the reason for being born in this world...I don't know what is!”
“[To Ritsu Sohma] I'm sure that inside your heart...you're trying with all your might to find it on your own...the reason you were born. Because...because really...there might not be anyone who was born with a reason. I think that everyone might have to find one on their own. [in her head] A reason for being born... A reason that it's okay to be alive... A reason to exist. [aloud] I think everyone might have to find it themselves...and decide for themselves. It could be your dreams...your job...or a person. ...The reason you're looking for...might be vague, unclear...and uncertain. [in her head] And you might lose it. [aloud] But as long as you're alive...you have to keep searching for that reason.”
“[After Hatori asks what snow becomes when it melts]Ah...um, well...hmm. It becomes spring! No matter how cold it is now, spring will come again! Without fail. It's strange isn't it? But it's true.”
“As long as you live things will keep happening! As long as you're alive wishes will keep being made!”
“Someday... no matter how cold it is now... the snow will melt. Without fail.”
“(referring to the letter for Kisa from the teacher) Here. It says to "like yourself". But good things about yourself... how are you supposed to find them? I only know things I hate about myself. 'Cause that's all I know, I hate myself. But even if you force yourself to find good things... it feels so empty. It doesn't work that way. People like your teacher just don't get it. I think... when you hear someone say they like you, for the first time... then you can begin to like yourself. I think when someone accepts you, for the first time... you feel like you can... forgive yourself a little. You can begin to face your fears... with courage.”
“[To Kyo Sohma]If you think of someone's good qualities as the umeboshi in an onigiri, it's as if their qualities are stuck to their back! People around the world are like onigiri. Everyone has an umeboshi with a different shape and color and flavor. But because it's stuck on their back, they might not be able to see their umeboshi. "There's nothing special about me. I'm just white rice." [in her head] That's not true. There is an umeboshi -- on your back. [aloud] Maybe the reason people get jealous of each other, is because they can see so clearly the umeboshi on other people's backs. I can see them, too. I can see them perfectly. There's an amazing umeboshi on your back, Kyo-kun.”
“I'll help you... But not by death, this world has enough of that. You can keep your life as long as you change the way you live it. It's never too late, believe me.”
“But I think... I want to live with all my memories. Even if they're bad memories. Even if they're memories that only hurt me... that I'd rather forget. If I keep them and keep trying, without running away, then someday I'll be strong enough that those memories can't defeat me. I believe that because I want to think that there's no such thing as a memory that's ok to forget.”
“But even though she's gone... she's not really gone, right? That the light won't go on in that apartment... is a lie, right?”
