"There are things that take a long time t…" — Megumi Hanajima Quote

"It's just that I'm fighting the pain of lost love. I guess it's what you'd call a rude awakening... or, maybe... the weight of responsibility? But I'm fine. I'm fine. Caring for someone isn't based on logic. You can't really rationalize emotions. Once I think "I like him"... it's all over."

"People aren't born social. Sure it comes easier to some people... but most people, like you, need to work at it. Some more than others. You're just inexperienced. For example, as a martial artist, you have the strength to break the table with your fist. But you also have the self-control to stop your fist right before it hits the table. You weren't born with that control, were you? You had to refine it. It's the same as interacting with people. But training for that isn't in the mountains - it has to be in town where people live. Mingling with people, hurting them, getting hurt by them. That's how you learn about people and about yourself. If you don't, you'll never care about anyone but yourself. You may be a black belt fighter, but you're still a white belt in dealing with people. For the sake of the girl who will one day tell you she loves you... Don't turn away. Keep training."

"I thought that, if I could shorten the distance between us, and if you would like me back, then the me that ran away - the dirty me - would be washed away. (To Kyo)"

"With so much at stake... are you willing to take the one in 10,000 chance?"

"Dammit! I'm fine, I just stepped in a hole."

"(thinking) I can't stand up...on my own. I can't go...any further. Not...all by myself."
