"In their own way, fights are also a vali…" — Tsukihi Araragi Quote

"In a way, the supernatural is what's behind the curtain. Normally, you only need to see what's happening on stage. That's how reality works. If you don't know, it's best that you don't. Actually, learning about the supernatural only increases the number of things you don't know."

— Mayoi Hachikuji · Nisemonogatari

"It isn't just "others". Not "others". It's my Family. I'll force my ideals on my family. And since they're family, I'll lie to them. I'll deceive them. I'll cause them trouble. I'll make them worry. I'll owe them things, things I'll never be able to repay. However, I think that's okay. If you say that being an impostor is evil, then I will shoulder the burden of that evil. If lying is a bad thing, then I'm fine being the bad person. I don't need them to like me. I'm fine with being the worst kind of person."

— Koyomi Araragi · Nisemonogatari

"I don't know everything. I just know what I know."

— Tsubasa Hanekawa · Nisemonogatari

"The past is just the past. There's no inherent value in getting over it or catching up to it."

— Deishū Kaiki · Nisemonogatari

"The impostor is an impostor because it can't be distinguished from the real thing. The proof of its falsity is in its resemblance to the real thing."

— Koyomi Araragi · Nisemonogatari
