- "Noble" War is Still War
Knights cannot save the world. They call certain methods of fighting good and others evil, acting as if there were some nobility to the battlefield. Such illusions, perpetrated by heroes throughout history, have led countless young men to their bloody deaths, all for the sake of this valor and glory.

Look at Mark. You and I, we made him. He's ours. When he feels joy, we feel joy. See that look on his face? How can you see that and not feel the same way? As we get older, it's harder to feel that. The weight of the world, it bogs us down. But our children remind us of the joys in life. It brings us back, shows us what life is all about. This is humanity.

Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States stated, "If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilisation, it expects what never was and never will be." So my fellow patriot, if I were to ask you what our Constitution says, and what our rights as citizens of the United States are, would you know what to answer?
Yoko Ogawa
- The Housekeeper and the Professor
Because he had been - and in many ways still was - such a brilliant man, he no doubt understood the nature of his memory problem. It wasn't pride that prevented him from asking for help but a deep aversion to causing more trouble than necessary for those of us who lived in the normal world.
Kazuo Ishiguro
- Never Let Me Go
It was like when you make a move in chess and just as you take your finger off the piece, you see the mistake you've made, and there's this panic because you don't know yet the scale of disaster you've left yourself open to.
George Washington
- George Washington Quote
"When government takes away citizens' right to bear arms it becomes citizens' duty to take away government's right to govern," George Washington stated. Could it be we are neglecting our very duty as citizens of the Untied States when we step aside and let the government disarm us?
Hayao Miyazaki
- Princess Mononoke (song from the end)
In the moonlight I felt your heart quiver like a bowstring's pulse. In the moon's mere light, you looked at me. Nobody knows your heart. When the sun has gone I see you, beautiful and haunting but cold. Like the blade of a knife so sharp, so sweet. Nobody knows your heart. All of your sorrow grief and pain, locked away in the forest of the night. Your secret heart belongs to the world of the things that sigh in the dark. Or the things that cry in the dark.
Hayao Miyazaki
- Princess Mononoke
You cannot alter your fate, my prince. However, you can rise to meet it, if you choose. Look at this. This iron ball was found in the boar's body. This is what hurt him so. It shattered his bones and burned its way deep inside him. This is what turned him into a demon. There is evil at work in the land to the west, Prince Ashitaka. It's your fate to go there and see what you can see with eyes unclouded by hate.

I didn't respond to him. Couldn't speak at all. Couldn't look at his self-mutilation - not even the clean, bandaged version of it. Instead, I looked at my own rough, stained house painter's hand. They seemed more like puppets than hands. I had no feelings in it either.

I walked over and looked closer at the statue of the goddess. She was wearing a headdress with a skull and a cobra and a crescent moon. Maybe this is what peace of mind was all about: having a poisonous snake on your head and smiling anyway.
Wally Lamb
- Wally Lamb - I Know This Much Is True
I am not a smart man, particularly, but one day, at long last, I stumbled from the dark woods of my own, and my family's, and my country's past, holding in my hands these truths: that love grows from the rich loam of forgiveness; that mongrels make good dogs; that the evidence of God exists in the roundness of things. This much, at least, I've figured out. I know this much is true.
Charles Brettinger
Plans are worthless, but planning is priceless. This is true in childbirth, in battle, and in everyday life. You should be aware that the plan will be thrown away immediately, but what you have gained from creating the plan will stay with you.
OneRepublic
- Better Days
Oh, I know that there'll be better days. Oh, that sunshine 'bout to come my way. May we never ever shed another tear for today. 'Cause, oh, I know that there'll be better days. Waking up in California. But these clouds, they won't go away. Every day is like another storm, yeah. I'm just trying not to go insane. Yeah, in the city's shining so bright, so many dark nights, so many dark days. But every time I feel the paranoia, I close my eyes and I pray.

- Today is a Gift
You are too concerned with what was and what will be. There is a saying: Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, but today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.
King Solomon - Ecclesiastes 4:1,2
- The Evil of Oppression
Again I looked, and I considered all the oppression taking place under the sun. I saw the tears of the oppressed, and they had no comforter; the power lay in the hands of their oppressors, and there was no comforter. So I admired the dead, who had already died, above the living, who are still alive. But better than both is he who has not yet existed, who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun.
Brothers Grimm
- Snow-White and the Seven Dwarfs
But iron slippers had already been put upon the fire, and they were brought in with tongs, and set before her. Then she was forced to put on the red-hot shoes, and dance until she dropped down dead.

"I just wanna say goodbye and wish you a wonderful day." I've only known you for a quite a while and found myself staring at you. But you are like a far away cloud. You are there but cannot be contained into a single form. You're a water that flows everywhere. No matter what phase or form you are, I just wanna see you happy and say goodbye.
