"This is an anxious nation: one doesn't know what to do, so they go crazy together. So I don't hate any individual Japanese."
"You're the victim of people who think they're right; but nobody's right... Sometimes victory can be overwhelming."
"You are the victim of man who thinks they are right, just as one day, you and your captain Yanoi, believe absolutely that you were right."
"It seems that the death of Cyrils sowed a seed in Yonoi's heart, so we all shared the growth of the seed."
"That caused a little turbulence in Shi Yejing's stagnant heart, and planted a seed that symbolized human nature, selfish desires, and all beautiful thoughts."

In the spring,
Obeying the August spirits
I went to fight the enemy.
In the Fall,
Returning I beg spirits,
To receive also the enemy.
——Yanoi
