Black Lagoon Quotes

11 quotes from this anime

"Justice. I can't think of another word more loved by the people. It does have a nice ring to it. However, without ever exercising your own strength, you seek the death of others at the hands of someone else. Well, the justice you refer to smells pretty rotten to me."
— Balalaika · Black Lagoon
"Whether we live or die isn't a big issue. If you focus on being alive, you develop fear. Your eyes get clouded. But if you have no such feelings... you are capable of fighting right to the end of the world."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
"You've got to enjoy life, or else you'll end up wasting it."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
"I'm no saint. A sense of duty, a sense of righteousness - they're just nuisances in life."
— Okajima Rokuro · Black Lagoon
"Rock, if you think about it, other than this, what do we really value in life? God? Love? Don't make me laugh. When I was a brat, crawling around in that shithole city, it seemed God and Love were always sold out when I went looking. Before I knew better, I clung to God and prayed to Him every single night — yeah, I believed in God right up until that night the cops beat the hell out of me for no reason at all. All they saw when they looked at me was another little ghetto rat. With no power and no God, what's left for a poor little Chinese bitch to rely on? It's money, of course, and guns. Fuckin' A. With these two things, the world's a great place."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
"People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made."

"God is emotional bullshit."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
"God's not at home. He's on vacation at Vegas."
— Eda · Black Lagoon
"If you cling to life, you live in fear of death. And that fear will cloud your judgment."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
"All they saw in me was another little ghetto rat with no power and no God. What's left for a poor little Chinese bitch to rely on? It's money of course. And guns. Fuckin' A, with these two things, the world is a great place."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
"What a terrible story. But appropriate for our world. Sometimes I feel like I'm walking over a giant pile of shit. Morality and justice don't really suit me. Words like that and what comes out of asses are surprisingly similar."
— Revy · Black Lagoon
