Ahaha... small talk is a chore. Of course, there are some people in the world who quite enjoy doing chores... but I am not one of them.

[royal-quotes]

You'll never know what's on my mind / You'll never know the secrets that I'm keeping / I'll scare you off with my crazy eyes / Cause all I need is me myself and / I don't got no shame, cause my life is just a game / And I don't care who's been keeping score / Everybody thinks I'm strange, it's just something in my brain / Don't know who they're being normal for

[royal-quotes]

Please picture me / In the trees / I hit my peak at seven feet / In the swing / Over the creek / I was too scared to jump in / But I, I was high in the sky / With Pennsylvania under me / Are there still beautiful things?

Akutagawa: That is precisely what I'm saying. He would gladly throw his life away to protect his siblings. In our line of work, those kinds of people are the first to find their way into a coffin. Only those who can cast their anger aside and act rationally end up surviving.

Oda: You're absolutely right. Emotions are at the very center of our existence, but they aren't the center of the world. There's nothing at the center of the world. So don't let your emotions control you, Akutagawa. Do not pursue the beast within you. Stand on your own two feet, rely only on yourself, and be as cold and tough as you can. You don't be able to survive in this world otherwise.

Akutagawa: ...Wait. Don't tell me that entire charade was to get me to say, "Only those who can cast their anger aside and act rationally end up surviving"? For me to temper my vengeance for the man in black?

Oda: Not at all. I'm not that clever.

Akutagawa: I am nothing like that child.

Oda: That's what I'm hoping for.

The Law is hard, but it's the Law. So freaking what? If the Law is wrong, why not change it? Do you know what the world would look like if we were all still following the laws made up back in the Dark Ages?

❝ Each of us has our fate, that storm which blows even as we are washed out to sea, lost and unable to see the shore, sweeping us up in its towering waves to hammer home the baffling truth of our own insignificance.

At least, that was the only kind of world Guren had ever known. ❞

❝ In Thule she had seen how the vengefulness of an abandoned, angry boy had burned down the world. But it hadn’t made Sebastian happy. Revenge had only made Sebastian in Thule miserable, though he conquered all he saw. ❞

It was like trying to return to a place in your childhood you remember as perfect. It will always have changed, because you have changed.

Look at you, worrying too much about things you can't change / You'll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way

[royal-quotes]

Good things don't last forever. Everything changes, fades, disappears completely over the passage of time. And so, people must make the most of the life they have, seize the chance to enjoy it while it lasts, and have no regrets in the end...

Furuyama, quoting Makoto

[royal-quotes]

The habits of years are not unlearned so quickly. Do not make the mistake of believing that he does not love you because he plays at not caring, Cecily. Confront him if you must and demand the truth, but do not make the mistakes of turning away because you believe that he is a lost cause. Do not cast him from your heart. For if you do, you will regret it.

And the hardest part of living / Is just taking breaths to stay / Cause I know I'm good for something / I just haven't found it yet / But I need it

[royal-quotes]

Kenji: Night will fall, and morning will break. Spring will come, then autumn. Everything happens in halves: Plants grow, then they wither away. Animals produce offspring, then perish...becoming the soil that we live on. I've gradually learned over time that nature works in halves like that. When something awful happens—like a storm or mudslide—it sometimes feels like the bad stuff is never going to end. But nature is both the good and the bad... That's what it means to live. At least, that's how we view things in my village.

Akutagawa: It doesn't make sense to me. Blessings and misfortune are divided equally in halves? Tell that to my friends who died in the slums.

Kenji: You're the other half, Akutagawa. You survived, and you developed an incredible skill. Everyone passed the good half on to you. That's why... That's why I just know you'll get your sister back. A lot of good things are waiting for you now. That's what nature's all about.

Akutagawa: I see. My friends who perished gave me their half.

❝ Everything seemed to be happening at a slight distance—he even felt as if he were moving more slowly though the world, as if he were pushing his way through water. ❞

[royal-quotes]

We do not get to choose when in our lives we feel pain. It comes when it comes, and we try to remember, even though we cannot imagine a day when it will release its hold on us, that all pain fades. All misery passes. Humanity is drawn to light, not darkness.
