“I was too bent on fulfilling my objectives… I failed to see things from a larger perspective. I failed to build up a good relationship with them.”
“There is no telling what kind of pain will come after me, but... if I stop believing because of that, if the hero should change, it'll turn into another story from the one my master left behind. Then it wont be Naruto! I can't write novels like my master did. That's why the sequel has to come from the life I live no matter how great the pain, I'll continue walking because that's who Naruto is!”
“People only have substance within the memories of other people. And that's why there were all kinds of mes. There weren't a lot of mes per se, I was just inside all sorts of people, that's all.”
“When I was little, I was teased because of my weight. I tried dieting, but diets always failed. Little by little I started feeling gloomy. I got to the point where I couldn't make friends, and I started hating myself more and more. I became completely unable to smile. I thought, no one in the world would ever like me the way I am now. But at the same time I also thought, if that's the way it is, then I should at least like myself.”
“I was only able to get back to being a real doctor by saving your life! I realized that human lives have equal value by saving you! Nobody has the right to take another's life! I've been living as a doctor with that engraved upon my heart for years!”
“No one really starts out kind. All we know how to do at first is want. We want food, we want attention... It's just natural survival instinct, I guess... But kindness is something that we all have to learn as we go. It's something that grows and develops slowly over time... The same way our bodies do...”
“Humans have always spent a lot of time on love. I’m not too interested in karuta, but I’m willing to work hard for love.”
“Right, It's too late for doubts now. There is no returning from this place I've come to.”
“The rain, the wind, the sun... you bring them all with you. Every time our eyes meet. You bring the world to me.”
“You wouldn't get an answer no matter how much you think about it. Love is not Japanese nor Math. It doesn't need thoughts of reasons. You will be aware of it when that person is next to you.”
“Life is an incessant series of problems... all difficult, with brutally limited choices... and a time limit.”
“If you lose something big, that nothing can replace it... Then it’s okay if you have more than one, right? Even if the number is small, whether it’s 10 or 100, if you gather them up then you will have a reason to go on!”
“Even if you're a main character, you can still die... I better be careful-ttebayo.”
“The feeling of not wanting to lose, everyone has it. If you find it unfair, you’ll have to work harder yourself.”
“No one can say they grew up in a sterile room, never failing or making mistakes. Life is an ongoing process of trial and error.”
