A dream is worth less than nothing if you don’t have someone else to share it.
Dousan Saitou

He pointed out that no matter how carefully one plans, on the battlefield, even the smallest of details can cause setbacks. Regardless of how well-thought it is, armchair strategizing only works in the realm of theory. Unexpected troubles, or uncontrollable factors such as weather. Operations face those sorts of troubles. They are the cause of strife on the battlefield.
Makishima Shougo

Gildarts Clive (Fairy Tale)

If you can’t do something, then don’t. Focus on what you can do.
Shiroe

Weaklings will stay weak forever. But weakness is not evil since human beings are weak creatures, to begin with. Alone, you feel nothing but insecurity; that’s why we form guilds, that’s why we have friends. We walk together in order to live a strong life. The clumsy ones will walk into more walls than the others, and it may also take them longer to get there. If you believe in tomorrow and put yourself out there, you can naturally obtain your strength. That’s how you will be able to smile and live strong.
Makarov Dreyar

Anime Quotes About Love

In this world, wherever there is light – there are also shadows. As long as the concept of winners exists, there must also be losers. The selfish desire of wanting to maintain peace causes wars and hatred is born to protect love.
Madara Uchiha

You don’t need a reason to fall in love.
Chihiro Kosaka From (Kami nomi zo Shiru Sekai)

You’ll only realize that you truly love someone if they already caused you enormous pain. Your enemies can never hurt you the way your loved ones can. It’s the people close to your heart that can give you the most piercing wound. Love is a double-edged sword, it can heal the wound faster or it can sink the blade even deeper.
Kenshin Himura

Even if I die, you keep living okay? Live to see the end of this world, and to see why it was born. Live to see why a weak girl like me ended up here… And the reason you and I met.
Sachi

Romance Sayings

Protecting someone means giving them a place to belong. Giving them a place where they can be happy.
Princess Lenessia

Even if we forget the faces of our friends, We will never forget the bonds that were carved into our souls.
Otonashi Yuzuru

Love is the reason why there is pain. When we lose someone precious to us, hate is born. Vengeance is the product of that hate and so death follows. But in death, there is only more death. This will give rise to more pains. In this cursed world we live in, it is a cycle of hatred that will not cease. You and I seek the same thing that Jiraiya–sensei wanted. Let me ask you this: How will you confront this hatred in order to create peace?
Pain

I’ll die hopeful, that my death might have helped them… to understand someday.

inspiring anime sayings

Kayo Hinazuki Saying

When I get bigger, big enough to go somewhere by myself, I want to go to a land that’s far away. I want to go to a faraway island. I want to go to an island that has no people. And, I want to go to an island that has no pain or sadness.

There are no adults, children, classmates, teachers, or my mom on that island. On that island, I can climb a tree when I want to climb, swim in the sea when I want to swim, and sleep when I want to sleep.

On the island, I think about the town that I left behind. Kids go to school as if nothing has changed. Adults go to the office as if nothing has changed. Mom eats as if nothing has changed. When I think about the town without me, I feel a sense of relief. I want to go far, far away.
Kayo Hinazuki
