“share the common trait that is essential for Ikigai. They are differents.
The differents are the ones who march to their own drummer. A different has their own set of beliefs that act as the guard rails and keep them on their unique paths throughout their lives. By establishing their own rules to use throughout their lives, they build an immunity to outside influences. They stand out for their beliefs and actions. They know what works and what doesn’t work in their worlds. They are their own persons. They do what they want.”

「春夜裡，墨色的天空中白云浮动，星星在云中忽隐忽现。难以相信在与这片美丽天空相连的地方正在发生战争，而且不停有人倒在枪林弹雨中。或许在方才的梦中辰治也倒在了战场上……如果能像儿时记忆中那样，呆呆地仰望天空，可能也是一种幸福吧”

「我发现在文明将兽性从人类身上掠去的时代，竟然还有你这样的、将同类当成食物，消化在自己体内的人。这让我深感震撼。不，因為时代迟早会在发展的尽头将人类再次恢復成只有食慾的野兽，你或许不过是个「先行者」。」

“It was in my nature to absorb large volumes of information during times of distress, like I could master the distress through intellectual dominance.”

“I had stood there waiting to see the body in the river, ignoring the real living bodies all around me, as if death was more of a miracle than life was.”
