Quotes

 * (to Mr. Inugami) "I learned that love is a kind of light. You taught me that my life can have meaning. I think that counts as a light. I also learned that you give the person a gift that will help them out. Tissues are useful so I thought hey would help you out."
 * (to Akira about killing) "I don't kill unless I have to. When the time comes to kill, I kill. If they attack with the intent to kill me, I like to think that makes us even."
