"Whether I go or not, I'll die anyway. I have an organ more important than my heart. Although you can't see it, I feel it going through my head down to my feet, and I know it exists within me.

"Trying to shoulder the burden all by yourself? Don't be a stranger. Weep and ask for help. Lean on me with your runny nose. Cry when you feel like crying. Laugh when you feel like laughing.

It's far better to get dirty while living true to yourself, than to throw away yourself and die a clean death."

— Gintoki Sakata · Gintama

"*talking about Gintoki* It's the same as always. He doesn't pursue those who leave, and ignores those who come."
