"Life has no weight in itself"

"Only someone that's prepared to devote oneself to others' happiness, without caring about his own, is allowed to become a king."

""Because I won’t die if I miss." I can totally understand the words of that slugger. We won’t die just because our dreams and efforts prove futile, nor do we need to despair. We both faced much greater despair, so we aren’t afraid of the obstacles that lie before us. We can easily bet on a coin flip while others are too frightened to even pick heads or tails."

— Usui Haruaki · Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria

"Someone that really can't kill others, has no reason. It is unnatural when you are able to find a reason why you can't kill, and can tell others smoothly."

"One can evoke "extraordinary" abilities if one focuses all energy on just one point."

— Shindo Iroha · Utsuro no Hako to Zero no Maria

"Cry when you’re sad. Laugh when you’re happy. Get angry when you don’t like something. Depend on someone when you’re depressed. Care for yourself before you care for others. Don’t hate anyone. Be proud of yourself. Stay loyal when you fall in love."

"Boredom - there are people that blast their own brain away just to escape from this beast."
