"And it seems you've acquired a new power…" — Ulquiorra Schiffer Quote

"I was glad you did not pretend to be a saint and claim to love the world despite everything. That is why I decided that I would be your true friend. I would accept your sorrow. And I would share my joy. If you strayed I would reprimand you. If you made mistakes, I would forgive you. And when you found yourself in trouble, I would be there for you. So that you who learn to hate the world, would come to love it once more."

— Komamura Sajin · Bleach

"Quit it. Stop whining. Unless you're able to activate your powers at will, you will die, like a dog, in the Soul Society."

— Shihouin Yoruichi · Bleach

"*to Ichigo* I thought you were interesting before, but now you're just a creepy kid."

— Ichimaru Gin · Bleach

"Time will try to constantly try to catch up with you. And with a roar, it will overcome you. Do not look ahead. Hope only lies within the unforeseeable current that will close in from behind."

— Ginjo Kugo · Bleach

"Think about it this way: a person picks up a sword when he's trying to protect something. Perhaps it's your life or your social status, maybe a reputation, a loved one, or personal beliefs. The motives may be completely different, but in the end, it's the same desire to protect something."

— Shihouin Yoruichi · Bleach

"Only underlings get caught up in the matter of style and lose the battle. A captain can't afford such indulgences. Don't try to be a good kid. Whether you own somebody or they own you. The moment you start a fight, you are wrong in either way."

— Shunsui Kyōraku · Bleach
