"Maybe life has no equal trade, maybe you…" — Edward Elric Quote

"It was just a rebound! Don't make a big deal over one or two arms!"

— Edward Elric · Fullmetal Alchemist

"I can't tell you that… You have to figure it out. Stand up and walk. Keep moving forward. You've got two good legs. So get up and use them. You're strong enough to make your own path."

— Edward Elric · Fullmetal Alchemist

"The power of one man doesn't amount to much. But, however little strength I'm capable of, I'll do everything humanly possible to protect the people I love, and in turn they will protect the ones they love. It seems like the least we tiny humans can do for each other."

— Roy Mustang · Fullmetal Alchemist

"I've been thinking about this for a long time. We put all our trust in alchemy but in the end... what is it? "Alchemy is the science of understanding the flow of matter and its laws. The process of comprehension, deconstruction, and reconstruction. The world flows too. It must also follow laws. Everything circulates. Even death is a part of that circulation. You must accept the flow." Hmm, Teacher sure drummed that into our heads, didn't she? I thought I understood it. But I don't understand anything... Mom proves that. Now here I am again, trying desperately to figure out a way to do the impossible. I'm such a hopeless idiot. All this time and I haven't grown up one bit. I thought maybe the rain would wash away some of this gloom that's been following me... but right now, every drop that hits my face is even more depressing."

— Edward Elric · Fullmetal Alchemist

"Even when our eyes are closed, there's a whole world out there that lives outside ourselves and our dreams."

— Edward Elric · Fullmetal Alchemist

"A man who inflicts suffering can't rest. His guilty mind won't allow it. But today, I can finally close my eyes to the living nightmare. And lay down, knowing that I won't wake again."

— Scar · Fullmetal Alchemist
