"Even when our eyes are closed, there's a…" — Edward Elric Quote

"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

"*referring to Winry* I didn't know she could be so cute."

— Edward Elric · 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

"It's true, I don't have a body, but I'm here. This is my punishment for setting foot on holy ground where mortals are forbidden. We made a mistake, Rose, and we're paying for it."

— Alphonse Elric · Fullmetal Alchemist

"AHA-HA-HA! Alchemists are scientists. We don't believe in unprovable concepts like "God". *Rose looks angry* We strive to uncover the principles of creation in the matter of the world, to pursue truth... *gazes at Leto statue* it's ironic that we scientists... who don't believe in God... are in a sense the closest things to him."

— Edward Elric · 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
