“We haveNot oneIn commonNo twoAre shaped alikeThe thirdBecause of that eye we lackIn the fourthDirection there is hopeThe fifth Is at the heart-Orihime Inoue”

“We should not shed tearsThat is a surrender of the body to the heartIt is only proofThat we are beings that do not knowWhat to do with out hearts”

“As we approach the crucial battleground, believe that our blades will not shatter.Believe that our resolve will not weaken.Though our paths may diverge, our iron hearts remain together.Swear, that though the land itself may break asunder...We will come back alive! ~Renji Abarai”

“Hearts, you say? You Humans are always so quick to speak of such things. As though you carry your hearts in the very palms of your hands. But this eye of mine perceives all. There is nothing that it overlooks. If this eye cannot see a thing, then it does not exist. That is the assumption under which I have always fought. What is this "heart"? If I tear open that chest of yours, will I see it there? If I smash open that skull of yours, will I see it there?”

“We fear that which we cannot see.”

“No world is without sacrifices. But if we produce casualties, we would also sustain casualties of our own.”

“We stand in awe before that which cannot be seen. We respect with every fiber of our being that which cannot be explained.”
