"Yuri, I finally understand why you and I…" — Keiju Tabuki Quote

"None of you will ever escape the curse, as I could not. Residents of the boxes like you could never gain anything. You will all simply disappear without leaving anything behind in this world. You won't even leave a fleck of dust behind - you will never be happy!"

— Sanetoshi Watase · Mawaru Penguindrum

"Listen up, you lowlifes who will never amount to anything!"

— Himari Takakura · Mawaru Penguindrum

"Let's share the fruit of fate."

— Kanba Takakura · Mawaru Penguindrum

"Why are people born? If people are born only to suffer the hard life, is it meant as some kind of punishment? Or a cynical joke? If that's the case, animals that adhere to the survival strategies programmed in their DNA are far more elegant and simple. If there really is an existence worthy of being called a God, I want to ask him just one thing: Is there really fate in the universe? If a man ignored fate, and ignored his instincts and DNA to love someone else... Dear God, is he really human? Just wondering. I hate the word "fate"."

"As it turns out, living was a punishment. I've been punished in small doses, living as a Takakura. But, still, we were together. We took all the punishments, no matter how small and trivial. They're all precious memories. Because the only reason I felt alive was because you two were there."

— Himari Takakura · Mawaru Penguindrum

"What do you think of the word "fate"? Does the concept of fate exists in reality? To put it simply, are people's futures set in stone when they are born, never to be challenged? Do you believe in such a rule?"
