"We'll worry about the future once we get…" — Tetsuya Kuroko Quote

"It's not about doing what it takes to win. Sei-chan told me before "Winning is just like breathing". Victory isn't something that Sei-chan seeks. It's a natural part of his life. It's a basic bodily function."

"When I tell you to leave, leave. In this world, winning is everything. Winners are affirmed completely, and losers are denied completely. I've never lost at anything before, and I never will. Because I always win, and I'm always right. I show no mercy to those who oppose me, not even my own parents."

— Akashi Seijuurou · Kuroko No Basket

"They say some defeats are meaningful and losing makes you stronger. Do you understand what that means? For living creatures victory is life, and defeat means death. It's an extreme example, but humans retain that instinct. Those who know the terror of defeat, hunger for victory."
