"Walls are an unavoidable part of youth."

"There's probably no one who's more of a realist than the unpopular loner. I have lived my life with the Three Nevers of the Unpopular: Never to hold (hope), Never to open (your heart), and Never to treasure (sweet words)."

"I don't want other people to mention my "self". Besides, if I can be changed with a few words, then that wouldn't be my "self", would it?"

"I lie all the time. Who cares if you know something, but you say you don't? Forcing something out of someone without permission is worse."

"They say if you change yourself, you'll change the world, but that's a complete lie. When people judge somebody, it becomes a fixed idea and an impression that lasts. A loner is forced to stay a loner. If you do your best at something and stand out, that'll only get used as fodder for criticism. Those are the rules of the Kingdom of Children."
