“That the world of today presents all the symptoms of demonic possession.”
― Amitav Ghosh, Gun Island

“We’re searching for a reason of existence. With our own strength, because maybe the truth is that there’s no reason for life from the very beginning. Everyone hopes and tries so hard to find a reason of existence. The reason of birth, of staying with someone, of existence, believing we have to find them all with our own hands. Like finding a place for ourselves in dreams, in jobs, in people. The reasons we conclude may be indefinite and fragile. We may lose it too, but even so, we want a reason. As long as I’m alive, I want it too. If possible, I want to find a reason of existence within a person, within someone.”
― Natsuki Takaya, Fruits Basket Collector's Edition, Vol. 12

“the possibility of our deliverance lies not in the future but in the past, in a mystery beyond memory.”

“I recognise I am evil. You are too. Now come kill me.”
