post your fav quotes here...

I'll start...but I have a feeling I'll post (to the most) three times before anyone else does).

From "Hoshi no Koe (with alterations from my experience of transitioning from high school to college):

"Sakura...
...to me..."

There are so many things that conjure up emotion...

The softness of dirt in spring...

Clouds in the summer sky...

The smell of the autumn wind...
The sound of raindrops on a silk umbrella...

The chill in the air on the way home from school...

The scent of the "whiteboard" eraser...

The sound of a distant "bus" driving away in the night...

Or the safe and comforting feel of a "little Mexican Restaurant" late at night...

Those feelings...

All those feelings...

I want to share all those feelings with you...

We are..

Both here...

..Because we're destined to meet again.

From "Kare Kano":

Life keeps turning and turning...
Children become parents whose children become parents...
Each hoping that the next generation will be happy...
...while they struggle for their own happiness.

Love,
Friendship,
Hatred,
Anger,
Success,
Despair,
Exaltation,
Frustration,
Truth,
Lies,
Hurt,
Salvation,
Greed,
Generosity,
Degradation,
Rebirth.

All of these spiral around in this world.
Without knowing how much time we have, we fumble...
...and swim throuhg life's murky waters.

I'm still finding my way in life.
And I see my friends are, too.

We want to experience everything life has to offer.

My dream is to die thinking,
"Wow, that was fun. I'm tired."

That's right.

Our lives are just starting to get interesting.

From "Ai-Ren"

It's cold...

Bright...

Noisy...

What is this?

I'm scared...

I'm scared...

It's ok...

Don't be afraid...

This world...

...is...

...cheering you on...

Waiting for you,

welcoming you,

Listen carefully.

What arethose opening the door for you saying?

What are they saying to you?

Be brave, and open your eyes.

There are many people...

...and a beautiful world waiting to greet you.

The future, from here on out...

There will be times when you may feel small or unattractive...

...times when the world may seem as cold as stone...

...times so painful that you can't even cry...

But, don't be afraid.

That's how it's supposed to be.

There's nothing to be afraid of.

Don't forget,

Right now,

everything in this world...

...is blessing you...

...with their entire body and soul..!!

Don't forget,

You are irreplaceable.
You were born out of love.

** My quote

It is times like this when an infant is born...
when a child is being introduced to his or her community...
when someone is leaving for new endeavors...
when someone is ready to graduate from their learning environment...
anytime...

it will hurt...
it will be scary...
and it will not be easy...

however...

everyone around...
whether friend, family, or stranger...
will be around for support...
because no one is ever alone...

This is to those who are ready to walk towards the gates of heaven...
This is to those ready to walk for the first time on Earth...

Remember...

there is always a light...
shining in front of you...
always...

**

From "Kare First Love":

When you like someone,
other than "liking" them,
you feel "insecure" too...

This kind of insecurity,
it turned into a small portion
of what you're feeling
because you also feel love?

I just found out my quote is not an quote from an anime or a manga. It was included on chapter 10 of Nabari no ou (I got the name wrong too!! How annoying) and I presumed it was made up by Kamatani Yuhki. But it wasn't. It was said by Mother Theresa, so I feel very embarrassed for misquoting. Sorry. I doubt anyone would have noticed if I had not said anything, but still.

"Nope, I hate them."
"Huh?"
"It hurts when you crash. And my dumb sister doesn't even care. So who'd even want to ride the dumb things?

There is still a lot more. But i'm gonna stop for now^^

We must never shed tears.
That is the life form's defeat
and if we give in to the emotions
then it only becomes proof
of our inability to control it.

-Bleach Chap53

32 Name: megane : 2009-01-25 19:46 ID:3VIiRx0X

Lighting fire on the untouchable fang....
Like solving a problem without looking up to the stars...
Like theres no need to yell until the voice is gone.

-Bleach chap89

33 Name: megane : 2009-01-25 19:47 ID:3VIiRx0X

The reason we think the flowers on the precipice are beautiful,
is because we are standing on the precipice as well.
Do not fear, because we are like the flowers,

We did not step off.

-Bleach chap99

34 Name: megane : 2009-01-25 19:48 ID:3VIiRx0X

Everyone of us us dead by birth.
The end is always there,
before the beginning.

If to live is to become familiar with things,
then the absolute last thing we come to know is the end.
At long last discovering those final moments
and knowing them completely, is indeed death

We must not try to become familiar with things
because those who cannot transcend death
must not try to become familiar with anything

-Bleach Chap 215 pg3

~this is my favorite.... :3

41 Name: soccerfuu9 : 2009-05-08 09:35 ID:bvw/i3wf

I'm BACK!!! Anyone miss me?

Anyways, here is one from a ongoing fav manga that I love:

"'Hey, what makes Mugi happy?'

'What makes me happy?

After Yuu moved out, I realized something...

That living alone can make me unhappy...

So what makes me happy is...

When I come home, there will be somebody to welcome me...

Who I can talk about the day's events...

Who I share my fears and anxiety with...

Who can help me vent my anger...

When I cook the day's meals, there's somebody who will eat and judge my food...

And she'll tell me how she feels, whether she is happy or sad...

If the person is Yuu...

To me...

That'd be like a miracle.'"

Pastel, the end of Volume 6 (I LOVED THAT VOLUME!!!)

42 Name: soccerfuu9 : 2009-05-19 01:27 ID:bvw/i3wf

Let me tell you then...
It's because you both love each other!
That's why you argued!
Think about it. Would you argue with a person you don't care about?
If they're annoying, you would probably just ignore them.
It's because you both treasure one another that you argued.
When you argue you learn more about each other...
And your hearts will become closer and closer.
Arguing is not the problem, the important thing is...
That you make up with her quickly
If you keep arguing...
It's meaningless

-

We argue because we love one another,
and slowly begin to understand each other more
If your chest aches, that's proof you cared for that other person

Pastel, Chapter 53

Those who fall in battle, would surely wish for vengence, and would also hope that their legacy, lives on in records.

44 Name: soccerfuu9 : 2009-06-11 19:08 ID:bvw/i3wf

When you are laughing,
I am happy too.
When you're depressed,
I feel gloomy too.
When you feel angry,
I feel uneasy and restless.

I don't know how to put it into words...
I...
I can't be without you...
I...
I like you.

I like you.
I like you a lot.

I really love you.

...but the warm sunshine and her very existence feel strangely pleasant.

When I go home, maybe I'll write a love song---

So much has gone by since that day.

So much has happened.

And yet, not really.

Is this what life is like?

The love song I wrote that day...

I got embarrassed and never sang it to her.

Oh yeah...

I'll sing it to her when I get home.

I'll go home.

I never knew how scary it could be.

Round and round...

No amount of thinking did any good...

...and so many "what ifs" assaulted me.

What if I had just left him that day...

What if I had said anything that day...

What if I hadn't quit my job...

What if I'd never gone out with him to begin with.

My empty old apartment....

...is filled with so many "what ifs"...

"...I pulled out a dust acoustic guitar from my closet...

...and got on a train bound for Shinjuku.

The midday train was empty...

...but it slowly got filled as we drew closer to the city.

Outside the station...

...I was struck once again by the masses of people, things, and information...

...and I stood frozen for a minute.

There were buildings...

...and streets...

...and cars rushing...

...and people.

Happy things and sad things.

Everything seemed to exist in a miraculous balance.

I felt like I could easily be swallowed up by the energy of the city.

I realized that I'm not as spunky as I was before.

It's tough for anyone to live their life.

I know that.

But as I am know...

...here in this city...

...I feel powerless.

Now that I think about it...

...until six years ago...

...I was doing my best...

...to survive...

...here in Tokyo.

I can't live like this...

...forever."

"Today I played the guitar and I sang.

Maybe it was because of my crashing heartbeat...

...but I couldn't hear any other sounds at all.

My voice kept cracking...

...and I probably sounded like a hot mess, but...

The last song, "solanin"...

I know I sang it right.

What am I doing in Tokyo..

...without even a job?

That thought...

...sometimes enter my mind...

Still...when this song ends...

...I'll go back to my usual life.

Ah...

Misunderstandings are beyond the sky
Is if just full of good-byes?
We caught a glimpse of our future
But it's time for good-bye"

  • If I had done this then, if I could return to then.
    But I can't become the boy I was.

In that little room where I used to live, a stranger now resides
The awful words you said, all those wasted days
A lukewarm can of coffee on that cold winter's day
The long, rainbow-colored scarf like a trail of memories
Chase me down the alleys and I cannot get away

  • Repeat

Suppose our tepid happiness were to linger on
In the darkness of our hearts, an evil seed would sprout
And it's time for good-bye

  • Repeat

Good-bye...it's all right
Be well wherever you are
I too will survive
It's all right...so good-bye

"September 1...'i have a feeling I've found my answer.

I'll keep working on it tomorrow.'

That was the day...

On the page opposite (from his journal) from the words he'd written when we were still in short sleeves...

...were the lyrics to 'Solanin,' as thought he'd been trying to confirm some feeling.

I had thought it was a song about lovers parting...

...but now I wonder if it was a song about parting with the person he'd been.

I'll do my best, too.

I'm going to master the guitar."

  • To be honest, this is a strong song that teens should look into when they are in doubt or stressed. I'm older now in my mid-20's...but when I look back to my teenage years, I find that I moved away from my immaturity...and towards MY future.
