All Wolf's Rain quotes
Kiba
I don't have anywhere to go back to. All we can do is keep moving forward.
Cheza
We would not have met, and the flowers will protect you. Kiba, because you protected this one, the flowers will return and bloom once more. So when the world is reborn, and Paradise opens, we will meet again. This one will be waiting for you. Find this one. And this time, the Paradise you hoped for will be...
Spirit Owl
When are we born? When do we die? Why are we born? Why do we die? The world has been destroyed and we've fallen countless times, always resurrecting from the ashes as Paradise. It has happened before, and it will happen again. An endless cycle of life and death. The world is a Paradise that was opened by someone, but this era too is almost at an end. We have acquired the means to exceed our natural span of life, never suspecting that the world itself was finalized in its existence. This knowledge has left me in despair, my fate has fallen and scattered like the petals of a dying flower, like the blast from a sand storm it has been worn down and weathered away. As if to be purified, the world will be encased in ice so that it can return to the beginning once more. Paradise is a world that is opened by someone...
Kiba
*to Hige* Coming from you, that sounds kind of fishy.
Kiba
Why? Why do humans always look to the sky? Why do you try so hard to fly when you don't have any wings? We'll run on our own legs.
Kiba
I've got nowhere to go back to. So all I can do is move forward.
Hige
[talking to Kiba, who is being held in a cage] Man, you really screwed up. I mean, I've seen one of us get hurt before, but never this badly. And you're caught, too.
Kiba
They say there's no such place... as Paradise. Even if you search to the ends of the Earth, there's nothing there. No matter how far you walk, it's always the same road. It just goes on and on. But, in spite of that... Why am I so driven to find it? A voice calls to me... It says, "Search for Paradise."
Kiba
Dying or getting killed isn't something unnatural. Living aimlessly without a purpose is.
Hige
[tsume bites into his neck] Let's meet up again in Paradise.
Tsume
I don't trust anyone, so no one trusts me
Kiba
I smelled something: The scent of a Lunar Flower. It was coming from this city.
Kiba
Everyone’s gonna die. It’s a natural part of life. But if life has no purpose, you’re dead already.
Tsume
I finished Hige off. I don't want to move any more either. I knew it from the beginning, I knew it somewhere in my heart. That's why I led a spontaneous life. I was confident after having met you... that I wasn't the one who would open Paradise. [groans]
Hige
Can you do me a favor? Could you kill me with your fangs? Can you still not forgive me? Am I still a traitor?
Hige
You're a strange one, all right. But having pride doesn't count for much if you're dead, you know?
Toboe
Why does everybody have to fight about everything, argue and steal from each other all the time? I mean, it's a big enough world. Why can't we share it?
Blue
If I can be with you when the world ends, it'll be enough for me.
Cher Degre
You know I think I understand now why you and I never had children…on some level we knew the world was ending, it may of seemed like we had found something else to obsess over but the truth is we’d given up on the future. That’s the real reason I was never able to get pregnant.
Kiba
Everyone's gonna die. It's a natural part of life. But if life has no purpose, you're dead already.
