"In the human world, truth and reality ar…" — Sanetoshi Watase Quote

"I think everything in this world is beautiful. The sky, birds, bugs, frogs, flowers, and even rocks. Because, if God created this world, could there really be anything dirty and ugly in it?"

— Momoka Oginome · 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?"

"It's no use. It's akin to love. Akin to the first kiss. It only works once."

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

"I love the word "fate". Because, you know how they talk about "fated encounters"? A single encounter can completely change your life. Such special encounters are not just coincidences. They're definitely... fate. Of course, life is not all happy encounters. There are many painful, sad moments. But this is what I think: sad and painful things definitely happen for a reason. Nothing in this world is pointless."

— Ringo Oginome · 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"."
