“And how everything they once were, that spark within them, could be extinguished so completely yet the world did not collapse under the weight of so much pain and grief.”
― Jennifer Saint, Ariadne

“Death comes for us all in the end, and we kind of just have to accept that in order to cope through life until we ultimately kick the bucket ourselves. Not like denying the human condition will keep the reaper at bay, after all. Then once you're gone, any traces of you ever having been alive will slowly fade away and be swallowed by the sands of time. With very, very few exceptions, every single person alive today will be long forgotten even just 200 years from now. That's what my grandfather's death made me realize.”
― Mei Hachimoku, The Tunnel to Summer, the Exit of Goodbyes

“It's pretty distressing, don't you think> The thought of dying and leaving nothing behind. The world not changing one iota from your having been in it. Makes you wonder what the point of even living in the first place is, you know. Like, why are we even here? Why bother putting in all the effort to live if only to suffer and die and be forgotten? That's what makes the thought of being ordinary so terrifying to me. That's why I'm determined to be someone. Someone who'll be remembered. Who'll actually leave an unforgettable mark on this world. Someone extraordinary.”
