“I put my hand on my chest. I can feel my heart beating. My heart is working. I'm pleased. I'm still alive.”
― Aya Kito, 1 Litre of Tears

“Don't worry, even if you fall over! It's all right. You can just pick yourself up again!
When you fall over, make the most of the chance to look up and see the sky.
You will see the blue sky spreading endlessly above you and smiling down.
Aya, you are alive!”
― Aya Kito, 1 Litre of Tears

“The reality of today
Is too cruel, too severe,
And doesn't even offer me a dream;
Imagining the future
Brings me yet another kind of tears.”
― Aya Kito, 1 Litre of Tears

“I felt someone behind me. I stopped and looked back... There was Mom, crawling behind me, without saying anything... Her tears falling to the floor... All my suppressed emotions suddenly burst out and I started crying.”
― Aya Kito, 1 Litre of Tears
