“The greatest freedom is the freedom not to get involved.”
“Dying means to be gone. And what goes, is not your pain, but your existence itself. But in your mind, you think that you’d have a sense of “nothing” after you die. How can you call that “nothing”? In other words, you don't even have an idea of what death is really like.”
“In this world, there is no such thing as "absolute"!”
“The envy of a man runs deeper than a woman's, surprisingly.”
“It may seem like we're all playing the same game, but in our minds, it is totally different.”
“You're free to like or hate whoever you want.”
“Trying to not hurt others is something you can’t do. People are creatures who hurt others just by existing even if they’re not aware of it. Whether you’re living or dying, you’ll always be hurting someone. Once you’re involved, you’ll hurt someone, and even by not being involved, you might be hurting someone else as well…”
“Let me tell you something... Real sin is something you can never atone for.”
“Even if I'm not around, nothing will change, you say? It's not as if I'm living my life to prove something silly like that! We live our lives to see how the world changes around us, don't you think?”
“Saying things like "It would be troubling for her" are just really convenient excuses for yourself. If you can forgive yourself like this, then you can just enjoy staying in your comfort zone, right?”

“Only one thing separates dangerous people and safe people: whether they know you or not. If they think you're a good person, they will all smile back at you.”
“To live is to undertake a journey - no, to undertake a journey is to live. To face the wind or to follow it, all journeys lead to the gates of death... The light in which all journeys are taken is deceptive - not hopeful, but sorrowful. And the struggle never ends. Everywhere on the earth is fleeting life. We are blown by the wind. The words we write in the sand disappear and finally, when we are swallowed by the sea we do not hear the waves. The humblest of creatures must face these dreadful barriers. No-not barriers, but challenges rather...”
“If a technological feat is possible, man will do it. Almost as if it’s wired into the core of our being.”
“The moon pierced down on the diseased world. There is no cure for the disease. An entire race falls mindlessly into destruction. Not even a man of colossal power may be able to prevent the inevitable. Death no longer terrifies men. The smell of blood is as common as the smell of white plums, so he creates slavery and savagery which surpasses the horrors of dying. These can only be fought with more bloodshed and the cycle never ends. My sword is guided by the reasoning of Hiten Mitsurugi, but when all is said, a sword is a tool for destruction not salvation. The only way I can retain my humanity is to bury its victims.”
“Human beings aren't known for remaining calm and rational.”
“I thought that the closer the real and virtual world got, the better the future would be. But the more the boundary between them blurs, the more it starts to trick people.”
