The best anime quotes about wisdom.
“If you're helping someone and expecting something in return, you're doing business not kindness.”
“Of course. Humans can be kind because there are things they do not understand. If they knew everything, they would attempt nothing. If they attempted nothing, nothing new would happen. Humans seek answers to the things they do not know. That is how kindness, nostalgia, joy, and fun are born.”
“If you ask anyone to name a universal rule that governs animals and humans alike, I bet you most people would answer "survival of the fittest". There are strong people and there are weak people. At a glance, it looks like the difference is pretty clear-cut. But the truth is, there's a lot more to it than just a simple battle of "strong" against "weak", of kill or be killed. You must understand what I'm talking about too, right? The true meaning of "survival of the fittest" isn't as simple as all that.”
“No matter whether you win or not, there's no meaning to war.”
“A prison, you say? You think you'll be free if you go to the world above? A girl like you can never be free no matter where you go. After all, we humans are apes put in a cage called Earth. There is no difference between the world above and the world below. The only difference is which is bigger or smaller. People who pout about how confining the cage is can never be happy. They live their lives only seeing the iron bars. A true lack of freedom is when you cage your soul.”
“People started growing crops because going hunting without knowing if you'd catch anything was a pain. People dug wells because going all the way to the river was a pain. Laziness is the mother of human progress.”
“So you're trying to accept everyone and their feelings, aren't you? I think you already know this, but if you keep trying to do this "accepting" thing with everyone, you're liable to be torn to bits.”
“Seeing nature and thinking it's beautiful is what's unnatural. That means the life you lead is an unclean one. If you can cut yourself off from mother nature and still survive, doesn't it mean you have enough inner beauty to allow you to do that?”
“The night is in its darkest just before dawn. But keep your eyes open. If you avert your eyes from the dark, you'll be blinded by the rays of a new day. So keep your eyes open, no matter how dark the night ahead may be.”
“Only humans, with their short lifespan, are driven to solve every problem they encounter. It is how they live.”
“The people laughing are laughing at their own ignorance.”
“My mom always says, strangers are just friends you haven't met yet.”
“Sometimes, it's necessary to look back at the past in order to move on to the future.”
“It's fine if he holds bad judgements without trying to get to know me. The real point is letting just the ones who want to understand me know my real self.”
“Whether you win or lose... You can always come out ahead by learning from the experience.”
“When things seem beyond help, if you open your eyes and take a really good look... It's a lot better than turning your back and hiding your eyes.”
