“For us who choose our dreams over our love the only thing we can do for love is perhaps to release the lock around our necks. Through that, the pain may vanish.”

You know Hachi, your life depends only on ourselves. I’m still convinced about this… But I’ve also learned to accept that people… don’t all become as strong, and it made me kinder than before.

In the world of art, all things are possible.–George from Paradise Kiss

Whatever Yasu loves, I love too. That’s the secret of love.

I never realized how much you hurt.

It takes a lot of strength to hold onto and care for the things we love, so why is it that god seems to have made humans unable to conjure up that degree of power and love?

Don’t do stuff that freaks him out, like what you’re doing now. Do something that makes him happy.

I want to be spoiled like a child. Cry to my heart’s content. But I can only suppress my feelings.

Being alone and being lonely are two different things. (Yasu)

Right now I am working to polish the shards of my dreams.

I thought that despite all the wounds and all the pains it could cause I wanted to dream again, and love someone with all my heart.

I think just being together and talking would be nice. But when we grow old, when greed and vanity will be completely gone, when I will be tired of singing can I return to that place too?

From that day on it was as if Ren freed me from gravity. I was floating in the sky. Higher. Higher. Higher.

I’ll make you so in love with me, that everytime our lips touch, you’ll die a little death.

We are all farsighted, we give importance to those things that are far from us, while neglecting the things that are close to us… only to realize their value later when they are out-of-reach again.

His hands are saying that he wants to hold her. His feet are saying that he wants to chase after her… He’s probably forgotten that I’m here, beside him

Say, Nana… You look like stray cat, wild and proud. But I can see the wound in your heart. At the time I just thought it was cool. I never realized how hurt you were.

The older I get, the more I realize that you don’t have to be around people you don’t want to be around, and you don’t have to be in a situation you don’t want to be in. You have the power to rise up and leave.

The guys who stick around are the smartest guys and the guys who are the most self-driven. You have to have drive. The coaches can only take you so far. You have to want to learn and work.

I’ve always been supremely confident in my abilities. But the biggest confidence boost is when the guys around you, you feel like they have confidence in you.

I sing around the house, in the shower

Observe the world around you everything you do, and especially everything you hate to do.

Your belief system saturates the space around you.

Better to be right about the trend and wrong about the implementation, than the other way around.

And I’m not so in love with making people mad that I want to live my life around it.
