“Must be yearning deep in human heart to stop other people from doing as they please.”

“Thing that got me was not her list of things she hated, since she was obviously crazy as a Cyborg, but fact that always somebody agreed with her prohibitions. Must be a yearning deep in human heart to stop other people from doing as they please. Rules, laws — always for other fellow. A murky part of us, something we had before we came down out of trees, and failed to shuck when we stood up. Because not one of those people said: "Please pass this so that I won't be able to do something I know I should stop." Nyet, tovarishchee, was always something they hated to see neighbors doing. Stop them "for their own good" — not because speaker claimed to be harmed by it.”

“Why do people have to be this lonely? What's the point of it all? Millions of people in this world, all of them yearning, looking to others to satisfy them, yet isolating themselves. Why? Was the earth put here just to nourish human loneliness?”

“Come on sempai, would you please stop growing mushrooms in other people's closets? -Haruhi”

“Please stop. Do not take me into your confidence, do not take me into your heart, for my owncannot bear it.”

“Always follow your heart in deep situations. As other people's heart may be full of schemes and greed.”
