The best anime quotes about philosophy.
“I see... You're taking things awfully fast, but like they say, "to each his own". I suppose that's just how you operate---*Lelouch drops a teacup on the ground*”
“Inherited will. Destiny of the age. The dreams of the people. These are things that will not be stopped. As long as people continue to pursue the meaning of freedom. These things will never cease to be.”
“If happiness had a form, what would it look like? It might be something like glass, because one doesn't notice it normally. However, it is actually there. As proof, if you look at it from a different angle, the glass will reflect light. It will state it's presence and existence more eloquently than any other thing in this world.”
“Don't you think wishes are the same as Geass? Things you can't accomplish with your own powers, you ask assistance from others.”
“Sometimes the only thing you have to doubt is your own common sense.”
“The next generation will always surpass the previous one. It's one of the never-ending cycles in life.”
“*to Kabuto, talking about Tsunade) The best medicines always taste bitter.”
“There probably isn't any meaning in life. Perhaps you can find something interesting to do while you are alive. Like how you found that flower. Like how I found you.”

“People live their lives bound by what they accept as correct and true. That's how they define "reality". But what does it mean to be "correct" or "true"? Merely vague concepts... Their "reality" may all be a mirage. Can we consider them to simply be living in their own world, shaped by their beliefs?”
“Father, is a person's destiny a thing like a cloud flowing with an inescapable flow? Or can a person choose the flow he wishes... I still don't know the answer to this. Either way the destination may be the same in the end. However by choosing to live like the latter, a person can live and strive towards a goal. And in this match I have finally understood those who have that are truly strong. Father, I have but one goal, I want to become stronger... Enough not to lose to anyone... That's how I feel. Father, the birds are flying freely today... They look so happy.”
“When a man learns to love, he must bear the risk of hatred.”
“When there is a true desire in the heart and that desire is strong... That is when he finds real strength that even he did not know he had!”
