"Everyone has a conscience, and everyone knows whether they're doing right or wrong."

"I have one wish, and that is to live, to be useful, to bring joy to people."

"I'm currently in the middle of a depression. I couldn't really tell you what set it off, but I think it stems from my cowardice."

"It's really a wonder that I haven't dropped all my ideals, because they seem so absurd and impossible to carry out."

"It's difficult in times like these: ideals, dreams and cherished hopes rise within us, only to be crushed by grim reality."
