"If you could calculate feelings, then we…" — Shizuka Hiratsuka Quote

""True to herself", "True to myself". We all have our own personal image that's dictated by others, one that's always off the mark. We wish to remain true to ourselves, but who gets to decide who we are as people? When our image never goes hand-in-hand with reality, where can we find something genuine? Where can we find our true selves?"

"You can’t take back the answer you already gave out. There’s no use in crying over spilt milk. The egg you broke won’t come back. All the horses and soldiers of a king will never return to his side again. It doesn’t matter what was said. You can never wipe away a bad impression. Even though the opposite is so simple in comparison. Just one word will make someone appear hateful. Just doing one thing would make you seem hateful. That’s why excuses are meaningless. Because even those excuses will make you look hateful.""

"School trips are simply a simulation of adult social life. If you ever go on a business trip with your boss, you won't get to choose where to stay or what to eat, but if you compromise, you can still have a modicum of fun. School trips train you to trick yourself into that kinda mindset."

"The present isn't everything, but there are things you can only do now, things you can only find here. It's now or never. Think Writhe Struggle and agonize. If not what you are going through isn’t genuine.""

"I'm always alone. Other people don't factor into what I do. The things that happen in front of me are parts of my life and my life alone."

"So long as a problem doesn't cause problems, it can't be called a problem."
