“I know that happy things and fun things eventually come to an end. But things that are scary and sad come to an end, too. They always do. Even if you can’t always believe that…please don’t give up.

“I wish I could've lived my life without making any wrong turns. I wish I could have lived in a kind world. Without anxiety. Without fear. Without hurting other people. Without being hurt myself.

I wish I could've lived my life without making any wrong turns. But that's impossible. A path like that doesn't exist. We fail. We trip. We get lost. We make mistakes. And little by little, one step at a time we push forward. It's all we can do. On our own two feet. Even if we get a little banged up. Someday, we'll reach something. We'll reach someone. We pray. Come on. It's time to start walking.”

Even if you can't believe it when it happens, please...please don't give up. Live. I want you to live. You might make mistakes or lose your way...but please...please live. Don't ever stop moving forward. Please...that's all I ask. Don't give up. Even if...I'm no longer at your side.”

“It would have been nice if we could have lived our lives without taking any wrong turns. But such a thing isn’t possible. We fall, we stumble...we lose our way, we make mistakes. And yet, little by little...one step at a time...we keep on walking forward with our own two feet. Even if we get beaten and bruised along the way, we’ll eventually reach something. We’ll eventually reach someone. Until then, we’ll keep wishing. So...let’s start walking.”

“I wanted to be you! I idolized you. And yet you said it first so easily. Shut the hell up!
...but you are Kyo, and I am Yuki, and that's the way it is. I can only be myself, and I accept that. It's the only way I can face myself.

You should realize there are some things that only you can do! So don't make her cry!”
