вЂњWhy is it that the beautiful things are entwined more deeply with death than with life?вЂќ вЂ“ Kaneki Ken If you have a reaction then you can never return back to your previous state of being.вЂќ вЂ“ Kaneki Ken вЂњHuman relationships are chemical reactions. IвЂ™m the one who was being eaten.вЂќ вЂ“ Kaneki Ken вЂњNever trust anyone too much, remember the devil was once an angel.вЂќ вЂ“ Kaneki Ken When you have to prove yourself and seek validation, youвЂ™ve already lost at the game of life.

Once that happens, youвЂ™ll break and become discarded.вЂќ вЂ“ Kaneki Ken Eventually, you will break and become useless. All youвЂ™re doing is indulging in this twisted self-value that you have to yourself. IsnвЂ™t that the case with you as well? Because you are the same as Donato.

He wants to prove just how valuable he is. Because when it comes to the state of the world, you canвЂ™t point your finger at ghouls or humans. We need to stop fighting, and start talking. We have a lot to learn, both your kind and mine. Yes, some ghouls walk a path that leaves sorrow in their wake, but just like humans, we can choose a different path altogether. вЂњItвЂ™s not the world thatвЂ™s messed up itвЂ™s those of us in it. вЂњIвЂ™m not going to protect you by being your shield or armour, but IвЂ™ll be the dagger hidden below your pillow.вЂќ вЂ“ Shuu Tsukiyama вЂњYou donвЂ™t need to blame yourself just because youвЂ™ve hurt someone, just like when youвЂ™re walking you canвЂ™t really blame yourself to crush some ants.вЂќ вЂ“ Shuu Tsukiyama And thatвЂ™s despite the fact there are вЂњgoodвЂќ humans too. Humans are the most vile creatures on earth. Rather, if you compared them to all living things, itвЂ™s humans who have shaved away the most lives.вЂќ вЂ“ Shuu Tsukiyama The weak bow down and the strong devour them. вЂњIsnвЂ™t it arrogant to put a price on whether life is вЂњhigherвЂќ or вЂњlowerвЂќ, Kaneki? We are just bags of meat.

ItвЂ™s an unusually unique quote considering what Tokyo Ghoul represents. Probably one of the best quotes about books, how it affects us, and the thought process. ItвЂ™s only when you immerse yourself in the world of a book that you are able to forget just who you are.вЂќ вЂ“ Shuu Tsukiyama And so, we freely walk around the world of the story from the yarn spinnerвЂ™s point of view. The way I think of it, literature allows the readerвЂ™s consciousness to deeply relish the author and be closer to him. вЂњBooks are nice, arenвЂ™t they? With just one sentence you can get lost in all sorts of dreams. вЂњThereвЂ™s no way someone who canвЂ™t even protect himself can protect anyone else, is there?вЂќ вЂ“ Touka Kirishima вЂњAfter youвЂ™ve gobbled him down youвЂ™d be left alone to regret it while covered in blood and guts.
