Quote of the Day: Naruto

This week I covered the Naruto manga as a whole, and so I’ve thrown together some of my favorite quotes from it for you. I hope you enjoy! Let me know if you know who says each one.

“Those who break the rules are scum, that’s true, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum.” 

“We both want the same thing. We both want the peace Jiraiya spoke of. You and I are no different. We’re both working for our own justice. The justice I have meted out against Konoha, is exactly the same as what you’re trying to mete out against me. Everyone feels the pain of loss the same. We both know that pain. You are working for your justice, and I for mine. We are just ordinary people driven to revenge in the name of justice. But if revenge is called justice, then that justice breeds yet more revenge. And becomes a chain of hatred. Living within it, aware of the past, predicting the future. That is what it means to know history. We cannot help but know that people cannot understand each other. The world of ninjas is ruled by hatred.”

“When a man learns to love, he must bear the risk of hatred.”

“A genius, huh? What does that mean? Genius? So I was not born with a whole lot of natural talent, not gifted like Neji … but I work hard and I never give up! That is my gift…that is my ninja way”

“There’s no advantage to hurrying through life.”
