“Inside me, there is an organ more important than my heart. Although you can't see it, I feel it going right through my head and down to my legs, and I know that it exists inside me. It's the one that lets me stand up and walk forward. So that I can walk forward, without ever trembling. If I stopped here I feel like it would break...My soul would break. Even more than if my heart stops beating, to me that is the most important. Even if I become senile and my back gets bent, I still have to walk forward.”
― Sorachi Hideaki

“Gintoki: Listen up! Let’s say you drink too much strawberry milk, and have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, but it’s cold outside your bed. You don’t want to get up, but the urge to urinate is just too strong! You make up your mind to go! You run to the bathroom, stand in front of the toilet, and let loose! You think that all your life has led to this moment! But then you realize. It isn’t the bathroom! You’re still in bed! That feeling of lukewarm wetness spreads like wildfire! But you don’t stop! You can’t stop! That’s what I’m talking about! That’s the truth of the strawberry milk! Do you get it?”
― Hideaki Sorachi

“Weep and ask for help.
Lean on me with your runny nose.
Cry when you feel like crying.
Laugh when you feel like laughing.
When you’re tearing up with an ugly face,
I’ll give you a good cry with an uglier face.
When you’re laughing so hard your stomach hurts,
I’ll laugh in a louder voice.
That’s how it should be.
It’s far better to get dirty while living true to yourself,
than to throw away yourself and die a clean death.”
— Sakata Gintoki”

“You want to know who the strongest man in the Kabuki District is? You must be new in town. You won't last long with that attitude. Forget it. This town is on a whole different level. You got thugs, brawlers, vigilantes and rogue warriors from all over Edo here. It's like a haven for hooligans. This is for your own good. Have a drink and go back to the countryside. What's that? You want me to tell you about the top dogs before you go? You really like this stuff. First, there are four monsters on a level of their own: The Fierce and Divine Madamoiselle Saigo, Doromizu Jirocho the Gallant, Peacock Princess Kada and Empress Otose. The four factions are in a standoff which preserves a fragile balance of power. Who would be the strongest in a fight? You wouldn't be able to even scratch those beasts. Saigo and Jirocho in particular, were heroes during the Joui War. Well, they're too old to go on a tear now. If you want someone who's currently active, there's Katsuro Kuroguma, a young leader in the Doromizu Faction. He's the most feared man in Kabuki District right now. You'll also find a few former Joui in Saigo's Faction. There are rumours about Kada's Faction having ties to some crazy folk. Otose's Faction? It's just a bar, really. She's just an old lady with a soft heart. But if you try any funny business on her turf, you'll run into a certain guy. A guy who holds his own against the Big Three by himself. One hell of a monster, with hair that's completely white. A demon...”

“شَيءٌ يُطلُّ الآنَ مِنْ هذي الذُّرى


أَحتاجُ دَمعَ الأنبِياءِ لِكَيْ أَرَى


النصُّ للعرَّافِ والتّأويلُ لِيْ

يَتَشَاكَسَانِ هُنَاكَ قَالَ ، وفَسّرَا

مَا قُلْتُ للنجمِ المُعلّقِ دُلّنِيْ

مَا نمتُ كي أصطادَ رُؤيا في الكَرَى

شَجَرٌ من الحدسِ القَدِيْمِ هَزَزتُهُ

حَتّى قَبضتُ المَاءَ حينَ تبخّرَا

لا سِرّ .. فانُوسُ النُبوة قالَ لِيْ

ماذا سيجري حينَ طالعَ مَا جَرَى

فِيْ الموسمِ الآتي سيأكُلُ آدمٌ

تفاحَتَيْنِ وَذنبهُ لن يُغْفَرَا

الأرْضُ سَوفَ تشيخُ قبل أوانِهَا

الموتُ سوفَ يكونُ فينا أنهُرَا

وَسَيعبُرُ الطوفانُ مِن أوطانِنَا

مَنْ يُقنع الطُّوفان ألا يَعْبُرَا

ستقولُ ألْسِنةُ الذّبَابِ قَصيْدَةً

وسيرتقي ذئبُ الجبالِ المِنْبَرَا

فَوضى وتنبئ كل من مرّت بهم

سيعود سيفُ القرمطيّ ليثأرا

وسيسقط المعنى على أنقاضِنَا

حَتّى الأمامُ سيستَدِيْرُ إِلَى الوَرَا

في الموسم الآتي ستشتبكُ الرؤى

ستزيدُ أشجارُ الضّبابِ تَجَذُرَا

وَسَيُنكرُ الأعمَى عَصَاهُ ويَرتَدِيْ

نظّارتينِ من السّرَابِ لِيبصِرَا

سيرَى القَبِيْلَةَ وهي تَصلُبُ عبْدَها

فالأزْدُ لا زالت تخافُ الشّنفرَا

سيرى المُؤذّنَ والإمام كِلاهُما

سيقولُ إنّا لاحِقَانِ بقيصرا

في الموسمِ الآتِيْ مزادٌ مُعلنٌ

حتّى دَمُ الموتى يُباعُ ويُشتَرَى

ناديتُ يَا يَعْقُوب تِلكَ نُبُوءَتِيْ

الغيمةُ الحُبْلَى هُنَا لن تُمْطِرَا

قَالَ اتّخِذْ هَذَا الظلام خَرِيْطَةً

عندَ الصّباحِ سيحمد القَوم السُّرَى

لا تَبتَئِس فالبئرُ يومٌ واحِدٌ

وغداً تُأمّركَ الرياحُ على القُرَى

إخلعْ سَوادَكَ .. في المدينة نسوةٌ

قَطّعنَ أيديهنّ عنكَ تَصَبُّرَا

قُمْ .. صَلّ نَافلة الوصولِ تحيّةً

للخارجينَ الآن مِنْ صَمتِ الثّرَى

واكْشِف لِأخوتِكَ الطريقَ لِيَدخُلُوا

مِنْ ألفِ بابٍ إِنْ أَرادُوا خَيْبَرَا

ستَجيءُ سَبعٌ مُرّةٌ .. فالتَخزِنُوا

من حكمةِ الوجعِ المُصَابِر سُكّرَا

سبعٌ عِجافٌ .. فاضبِطُوا أنفَاسَكُم

مِنْ بعدِهَا التّاريخُ يرجِعُ أَخْضَرَا

هِيَ تلكَ قافلةُ البشيرِ تَلُوحُ لِيْ

مُدُّوا خيامَ القلبِ ، واشتَعِلُوا قِرَى

أشتمُّ رائِحَةَ القَمِيصِ .. وطالمَا

هطَلَ القَميصُ على العُيُون وبَشّرَا”
― محمد عبد الباري

“وحدي أدافع عن هواء ٍ ليس لي

وحدي أدافع عن هواء ٍ ليس لي

وحدي على سطح المدينة واقف ٌ

أيوب مات ، وماتت ِ العنقاء ُ ‘ وانصرف َ الصحابة

وحـــدي . أراود نفسي َ الثكلى فتأبى أن تســاعدني على نفسي

ووحـــدي …. كنت وحدي

عندما قاومت وحــدي … وحدة الروح الأخيــرة”
― محمود درويش, مديح الظل العالي
