“The burdens that one person alone can shoulder...aren't very big at all, I think. So it's a good thing that they're a "pair." It's good the two of them met.”

“I would never even consider leaving you. No matter who else abandons me...or looks down on me...or spits in my face...I will stay with you to the end.”

“A heartfelt smile. And even if...it's just for a moment...my pain...my fears...my sorrows - let them all...sleep now. For this moment...just for this fleeting moment-”

“As long as you're alive......you can't put life on hold like you can with a game-so that's why......those brief respites......when you can forget all the bitterness and pain...they let you take a breath......and calm your heart.If you don't give yourself that kind of time......living on just becomes, every so often-it gets to be too painful.”

“In this totally dark world, you can't live unless you're needed by someone.”
