Phrases

Oh yeah, I've been reading quite a lot (manga and books) and finished watching this anime series called Haibane Renmei (Lol. Which reminds me of this really loud "debate" I had with Pranav) But these phrases (which I'll be listing out) .... they just seem so powerful. I'm mentioning them because..somehow, I just know, that if these phrases were uttered by actors in real movie...I wouldn't be so emotionally impacted. Why? I don't know. I just know.

"This world...it's so fragile. Even if we don't do anything...it could shatter all by itself" - X-day (I absolutely loved this manga)

"We're all living quietly so we don't spill the water in the cup....but we still end up getting hurt" - X-day

"I'm just escaping from life's problems. I'm...tired. I'm so tired" - X-day

"I smile to pretend that everything is fine....and to hide my pain from others" - X-day

"There are different kinds of wars. Everyone bleeds when they fight themselves.. even while they smile" - X-day

"Our lives were probably meaningless to most people. But for us those moments were special. We laughed and had so much fun together" - X-day.

"I was always lonely. And I thought nobody would grieve, even if I was gone. So , I wanted to disappear...but you were by my side" - Haibane Renmei

"I was afraid. What if I ask for help from the bottom of my heart and nobody answers? What if I really am completely alone?" - Haibane Renmei

"Rakka...help me." - Haibane Renmei

"Loneliness has followed me my whole life, everywhere. In bars, in cars, sidewalks, stores, everywhere. There's no escape. I'm God's lonely man" - Taxi Driver

"So outstanding that I can't help but feel suffocated...but there must be some things that only I can do" - Honey and Clover

"I've never really understood. Why are there people who reap what they don't sow and people who work? Why are there people who are loved and people who are unloved? Who caused this division? Where did these two groups split to their own ways? No, is there really a crossroad? Isn't everything destined right from the moment we are born? If that is so, ah, God, what is the meaning of my existence?" - Honey and Clover . Favourite monologue.

I think there's this very real profound sadness and loneliness attached to these characters.

Ciao.
