The Ken Kaneki's quote says that the pain and the fear we feel today will be our strength tomorrow.
Pain or fear of something or someone is normal to have. We often fear a particular situation or person and do not know how best to handle ourselves and what we do or say.
We need to be aware that fear, dread, frustration, and failures, are all elements that will one day turn into success and happiness only if we deal with them in an optimistic, rational, and positive way.
Moreover, the experience formed by going through difficult and painful periods will be the key to our success.
I’m begging you, don’t make me a killer!
I was wrong. I wasn’t eating ghouls. I’m the one who was being eaten.
You’re wrong. It’s not the world that’s messed up; it’s those of us in it.
We need to stop fighting and start talking. Because when it comes to the state of the world, you can’t point your finger at ghouls or humans. We’re all to blame.
It’s better to be hurt than to hurt others. Nice people can be happy with just that.
I don’t care about taking the side of those I cannot see. I fight for those close to me. And it just so happens that they’re mostly ghouls.
I think what’s necessary is the ‘right distance.’ Instead of mutually tramping on each others’ existence, we should just respect each other a little more.
Sometimes you’re confronted with the ugly parts of yourself that you don’t want to see, but books can also tell you a lot about the things you didn’t notice when you’re just trying to get through somehow.
You’re wrong. It’s not the world that’s messed up; it’s those of us in it. Yes, some ghouls walk a path that leaves sorrow in their wake, but just like humans, we can choose a different path altogether. We have a lot to learn, both your kind and mine. We need to stop fighting, and start talking. Because when it comes to the state of the world, you can’t point your finger at ghouls or humans. We’re all to blame.
Donato has to keep proving himself. He wants to prove just how valuable he is. Isn’t that the case with you as well? Because you are the same as Donato. All you’re doing is indulging in this twisted self-value that you have to yourself. And if you don’t, you won’t last. Eventually, you will break and become useless. Once that happens, you’ll break and become discarded.
Human relationships are chemical reactions. If you have a reaction then you can never return back to your previous state of being.
I led me by the hand, as if to fill the niches in the memories in my oozing brain fluid. Without even a destination, we kept walking. Disgusting clouds were floating in the sky. I already know what will happen to me the next time I wake up.
Why is it that the beautiful things are entwined more deeply with death than with life?
You think something like that would hurt, after all I’ve been through?
My severe injuries had healed and the sweet taste of blood coated my mouth. I kept walking, my goal vague…trying to dispel the building unease in my chest… Upon entering an open area was the scent of rotting flowers and in the middle of the flowerbed, he stood… Without anyone saying a thing, without his name given, like an unsolved puzzle falling into place by itself, just by seeing that figure, I–understood exactly who I faced. The CCG’s reaper. The undefeated ghoul investigator. A cold, vivid gaze. There, stood the God of Death. Why was it that I was seeing beauty in death rather than life? Strangely, I thought he was beautiful… Disoriented, I had failed to comprehend the scene before my eyes. It was not anything like flowers but a large amount of “Death”. Had he done this alone?… It’s a lie… Koma…Irimi…After all that… No matter how I tried to rouse my will to fight with hatred, more than sorrow, more than rage, the emotion that arose within me was despair. Because ‘my turn’ was next.
If you were to write a story with me in the lead role, it would certainly be… a tragedy.
Pain is your friend. Pain is your ally.
I led me by the hand as if to fill the niches in the memories in my oozing brain fluid. Without even a destination, we kept walking. Disgusting clouds were floating in the sky. I already know what will happen to me the next time I wake up.
We have to break a chain of grief.
Pain tells you when you have been wounded badly.
Cain used to be seen as evil, you know. Well, I mean, he can be understood as being ‘evil’ now, too. But if you just think about Cain, you can kind of see that he had to do what he did to be able to carry on, I think. It would’ve been unbearable for him, you know?

The Ken Kaneki's quote says that we must never trust anyone.
Trust should be something we rarely have to give to people who will surely not betray us or take advantage of us.
We may be very disappointed or grieved if we trust something or someone too much.
To find a person we can trust, we must be aware and sure that the latter is entirely faithful, which is very difficult to understand.
So for our safety, we must always be alert and ready for adverse situations, betrayals or drastic changes in the relationship.

We must always be independent of external factors. We must never let anyone or anything besides us make our life worse or our social and work situations.
We must have the ability to make our actions, thoughts and situations into things independent of external reality.
For this, we must take a rational, realistic and individualistic attitude. Those who invade our values by trying to change them do not deserve even a confrontation on our part.
Sometimes good people make bad choices. It doesn’t mean they are bad people. It means they’re human.

The Ken Kaneki's quote says that good and reasonable people often make bad decisions. However, this does not imply that they are bad people but rather human.
Perfection does not exist. We are not perfect. Although we have proper and good values, we also make mistakes and make bad decisions or do harmful and unsuccessful actions.

We must have the readiness to take responsibility for our actions and resolve adverse events if we were the ones who created them.
I wanna be nice, but everyone annoys me.
Work in Progress...
I want to give my life for someone else.
Work in Progress...
All the liabilities in this world are due to the inadequacies of the person involved.

The Ken Kaneki's quote says that all responsibilities come from the inadequacies of the person involved.
Feeling inadequate means that we have a feeling that we are not up to par or not comfortable in a situation or relationship.
It is normal to feel inadequate in certain circumstances. With inadequacies comes the responsibility to resolve those inadequacies. We have to re-establish a situation of tranquility and equality.
If we are the one who feels inadequate, we have to resolve the situation on our own. That is our responsibility.
If it is a person with whom we have a strong relationship who feels inadequate, then that is another matter. Someone else's inadequacies are their own and have to be resolved on their own, yet we can help them and make ourselves somewhat responsible for their inadequacies and help them resolve them.
Of course, we must always consider that person's utilitarian and emotional factors. We cannot take on all the responsibilities or inadequacies of all the people in the world.
I have to learn by experiencing things myself... that's all I can do.

The Ken Kaneki's quote says that he has to learn things by himself because that is the only thing he can do.
Experience is a crucial factor in our life. There are two kinds of experience, indirect and direct.
We can receive indirect experience by listening to a master or anyone who has already had a particular experience. Thanks to them, we can realize how it is structured, how difficult it is, or how to solve a situation.
Direct experience, on the other hand, is what we experience with our skin. This type of experience includes elements such as failure. Experience the situation directly and learn new things.
We should be inclined to embrace experience in all possible forms because it makes us wiser and more capable of living. However, direct experience can be much more helpful than indirect experience because living through certain situations with our skin strengthens and improves our thinking and way of living much more.
Human relationships are chemical reactions. If you have a reaction then you can never return back to your previous state of being.

The Ken Kaneki's quote says that human relationships are like chemical reactions. If in a chemical reaction, there is no going back to the previous state, so it is with human relationships.
Human relationships are complicated and very often incomprehensible elements. We often find ourselves in a relationship with someone opposite our way of thinking or doing. However, it is admirable the variety and enormous possibilities in relating.
The point is that relationships are fragile. We can destroy them when we want to and even unconsciously with inappropriate words. Very often also, if we drastically change a relationship, positive or negative, we cannot go back to a previous state.
Therefore, the relationship is like an ever-changing element that cannot return to previous states. It can only get better or worse.
Our attitude about relationships must be wise and rational. We must know when to build a relationship and when to stop seeing a person. We must also be decisive and careful about what we say or do.
