Wolf’s Rain
“Come on, we’re
friends now, aren’t we?” ~Hige
“Comin’
from you, that sounds kinda fishy.” ~Kiba
“Being alone doesn’t
bother you?”
~Toboe
to Tsume
“We’re leaving the
city. I really think you should come with us.” Toboe
“And just where is
this merry band of yours going?” ~Tsume
“To paradise.” ~Kiba
“Huh. You’re kidding
me. You’re going with them because you believe in that crap?” ~Tsume
“Well I don’t know,
but if we stay here we’ll have to spend the rest of our lives in hiding, or
worse. We just can’t live with the humans anymore and survive.” ~Toboe
“Do you have the
slightest idea of what leaving the city would mean?” ~Tsume
“Yeah” ~Kiba
“You’ll just die.” ~Tsume
“Possibly. Everyone’s gonna die. It’s a natural part of life. But if life has no
purpose, you’re dead already.” ~Kiba
“Screw this stupid
journey.
~Tsume
“Even if hell is what
we’re headed towards. You people may not have been able to find paradise, but
there’s absolutely no doubt in my mind that we will.”
~Tsume
“I don’t know if the
place we tried to find was real or not, but I believe there are some that can
make it to paradise, and there are some that can’t. I’m convinced of that.”
~Zale
“If we’re meant to
die, so be it.”
~Kiba
“Here I am tracking a
pack of wolves, and here you are chasing a fox. We make one hell of a team.”
~Quent
Yaiden
“That’s right. Women always
run when you chase them. It’s been that way since the dawn of time.”
~Quent Yaiden
“Why does everybody
have to fight about everything, arguing and stealing from each other all the time. I mean, it’s a big enough world; why can’t we share
it? Wolves and humans and birds and flowers living together
as equals. If we all got to paradise, that’s how it would be, wouldn’t it?”
~Toboe
“You mean humans were
created from wolves?” ~Toboe
“Yes, little one.
Back when the world was young, as you are now. When the wolves seek out
paradise, this world will come to an end. Or perhaps the world will end because
of their search as they make their way home. It is unclear which will happen
first. Regardless, when the wolves find it, everything in this world will cease
to be.” ~The Elder
