- Straw Nihilist: If this is any indication:Bernkastel: 'The idea of 'friendship' is just a stupid and utter lie! The very idea that people can get along with each other and cooperate without wanting anything in return is a farce! No matter how close you think you are to someone... it all falls apart. Yeah... no matter how strong you think a bond is, it breaks at some point. You think you're close to your friends right now, but it just takes one thing to destroy it all. 1 year from now, 2 years, 5 years... eventually, you'll just be alone, so there's no point in trying to fight that... so... don't go off preaching about annoying falsehoods like that in front of me!'
