Mizuki Nomura
“Yes. We will live the rest of our lives in hell. It's not so bad: as long as you're prepared for it, you can live anywhere.”
Mizuki Nomura, Book Girl and the Suicidal Mime

NisiOisiN
“Every mystery novel I ever read, the great detective was such an arrogant fuck you could replace 70% of his dialogue with 'Are you stupid?' and the conversation would still make sense.”
NisiOisiN, Zaregoto 1: Book 1: The Kubikiri Cycle

Hitomi Kanehara
“God has to be a sadist to give people life.”
Hitomi Kanehara, Snakes and Earrings

“God is a man of such perfect, flawless character that he only watches over everyone equally -- the strong and the weak, the rich and the poor -- and never plays favorites or reaches His hand out to any of them. Oh, what a wonderful God. He can just drop dead.”
Yukako Kabei, Kieli, Volume 1: The Dead Sleep in the Wilderness

Hitomi Kanehara
“If you were God, what kind of human would you create?" I asked.

"I wouldn't change how they look. But I would make them as dumb as chickens. So dumb they'd never even imagine the existence of a god.”
Hitomi Kanehara, Snakes and Earrings
