#Self-Discovery

“Right now, I kinda wish that my mom named me Bob instead of Ash.”

“Rely on impulse and not even your thoughts can betray you.”

“There's no sense in going out of your way just to get somebody to like you.”

“Yusuke Urameshi, age 14. Survived by his mom and everybody. After going through a big ordeal to get his life back, Yusuke had a brief second chance until he was eaten by a fish! That's right! No heroic death! No fighting evil villans! Fish food!”

“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.”

“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.”

“He told me...that which is incomplete seeks completion... yet...that which is incomplete is no better than that which is complete. Do you understand?”

“I love you. When did I start to love you so much?”

“*to Riku* At least I'm the cute one!!”

“...As they played the game...I waited for someone to call "onigiri". But no one called. I was very little then. I had almost forgotten about that. But they knew...there would never be room for an onigiri...in a fruits basket.”

“I never... [chuckles]... laughed this hard in front of my parents.(to Tohru)”

“You must believe in yourself, follow your path without fear.”

“[in her head] My happiness comes from the kindness of those around 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.”

“[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.”

“My arm did not obey a certain command I gave it, so I decided it needed to be punished.”
