“Life has no value!'
Truly right. It has no value.
If you think only of yourself,
it has no value.
'Why was I born?'
The reason you are here...
is because someone supported your life.

'Why was I born? For what purpose?'
The reason you are here...
is to support lives.

If you don't go against how life should be...
You're already completely...
Free.”
― Takehiko Inoue, Vagabond, Volume 37

“Nothing goes perfectly for us. But... being incomplete is what pushes us onward to the next something... If we were even perfectly satisfied, what meaning would the rest of our lives hold, right?”
― Inoue Takehiko

“There is no light.. for those who do not know darkness.. Live on and endure the shadows, Takezo.. And brightness shall come your way.”
― Takehiko Inoue, Vagabond, Volume 2

“Preoccupied with a single leaf... you won't see the tree. Preoccupied with a single tree... you'll miss the entire forest. Don't be preoccupied with a single spot. See everything in it's entirety... effortlessly. That is what it means to truly "see.”
― Takehiko Inoue
