"A farewell is like the other side of a c…" — Gintoki Sakata Quote

"Life is like a mountain - you can say you've reached the top, but only after climbing back down."

"That's the kind of people they are. Whether it was me or not doesn't make a difference. A person falling to their doom, and without a second thought they would jump in to save them. It's impossible to just sit and let it happen. Without thinking of the consequences their bodies just move. That's what kind of idiocy is gathered here. That's the Yorozuya. Even if you forget everything else, as long as you remember that much, we're good. As long as you remember that, whomever your leader is, you guys will do fine."

— Gintoki Sakata · Gintama

"No matter how hard you blow, you can never extinguish our fire. As long as a single flare remains, the others can be relit."

"Tears are handy for washing away troubling and sad feelings. But when you grow up, you'll learn that there are things so sad, they can never be washed away by tears. That there are painful memories that should never be washed away. So people who are truly strong laugh when they want to cry. They endure all of the pain and sorrow while laughing with everybody else."

— Obi Hajime · Gintama

"Everyone's carrying something that matters. You just don't realize when you're carrying it. It's only after it slips out of your hand that you realize how heavy it was in the first place. So many times I thought that I'd never carry a load like that ever again. And yet, before I realized it, I was carrying it again. I'd feel so much better if I just got rid of it. But I just can't bring myself to do it."

— Gintoki Sakata · Gintama

"We've got nothing left at home but salt and sugar."
