->''"Every day you wake up, it's the same bloody question that haunts you: is today the day I die? Death is on your heels, baby, and sooner or later it's gonna catch you. And part of you wants it... not only to stop the fear and uncertainty, but because you're just a little bit in love with it. Death is your art. You make it with your hands, day after day. That final gasp. That look of peace. Part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. Every Slayer... has a death wish. Even you. The only reason you've lasted as long as you have is you've got ties to the world... your mum, your brat kid sister, the Scoobies. They all tie you here, but you're just putting off the inevitable. Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second- the ''second''- that happens... You know I'll be there. I'll slip in... have myself a real good day."''

->I gave someone an arrogant lecture on their way of life today. Again. It's not like I think my words are actually going to change anything. Am I even doing the right thing? Should I really just keep on going like this? I don't know what I'm living for anymore. There's no one here to answear my questions. Kazuki and Asako were supposed to give me the answers, but they're gone now. It's not like I've given up. It's not like I've despaired. That's what I want to believe, at least.
->But I'm just so tired. If I stop forcing myself to stand, it feels like I might just collapse. And if I fall apart now, I know from experience that I'll sink into an unendurable nightmare. I sratch at my own body, tormented by the illusion of insects runnig around under my skin. The pain's intolerable. Even death would be better than this.
