"I can't tell you that… You have to figur…" — Edward Elric Quote

"On the day we left, we burned down the family home and all the familiar things inside. Because some memories aren't meant to leave traces."

— Alphonse Elric · Fullmetal Alchemist

"Greed may not be good, but it’s not so bad either. You humans think greed is just for money or power, but everyone wants something they can’t have."

— Greed · Fullmetal Alchemist

"People can say there is a balance, a logic that everything happens for a reason... But the truth is far less designed. No matter how hard you work, when you die, you die. Some spend their entire life trying to scratch their way to the top, and still die in poverty. While others are born into wealth without ever working at all. It's a cruel and random world. And yet the chaos is all so beautiful."

— Dante (Fullmetal Alchemist) · Fullmetal Alchemist

"I'm as normal as they come and this is a contest of freaks! What do you want me to do, shoot my slingshot at him?"

— Maes Hughes · Fullmetal Alchemist

"In general, men prefer to let their actions speak instead of words. When they're in pain, they don't want to burden anyone with it, not if they can help it. They don't want anyone to worry about them. That's how they are. Even so, there may come a time when they'll ask for your help. And when they do, I know that you'll be there for them. Isn't that enough?"

— Maes Hughes · Fullmetal Alchemist

"I think you've got me all wrong. My motives aren't so sophisticated as "revenge" or "honor" or any of that... The reason I killed all of those men... was because I could. It's that simple."

— Solf J. Kimblee · Fullmetal Alchemist
