“The weakness that had accepted death now became the strength of wanting to live.”
“It feels so close to me, yet I can't reach it even if I hold out my hands. But even if I can't reach it, there are things that will stay in my heart. Being in the same time and looking at the same sky – if I can remember that, then even if we are far apart, I believe we can still be together.”
“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.”
“I put my hopes in it that maybe I could turn your heart just a little. Why do I end up dreaming over and over again without getting tired of it as if that's all I know.”
“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.”
“Yes, the seats are limited. There are always fewer seats called "happiness" than there are people to fill them.”
“Everyone makes mistakes the first time around.”
“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!”
“As long as you live things will keep happening! As long as you're alive wishes will keep being made!”
“[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 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.”
“Someday... no matter how cold it is now... the snow will melt. Without fail.”
“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.”
“I won't ask what you wish for. I only hope it comes true by your own two hands. (to Kyo)”
“[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.”
“You must believe in yourself, follow your path without fear.”
“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.”
“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.”
