Your father is... a disgusting person. He's handsome, kind, a great chef, and can do anything and everything. From the perspective of someone who loved Nadeshiko he's a very, tremendously disgusting person. Let's see... his flaw is that he has no flaw... I guess. —Sonomi Daidouji about Fujitaka Kinomoto, from CardCaptor Sakura
Innocent
Such a dignified appearance. He has the grandeur of a saint with the mark of a martyr... —Charles-Henri Sanson and Louis-Charles Martin Sanson talking about King Louis XVI, from Innocent Rouge

I strive to be a true gentleman! There are times when a gentleman has to be courageous and fight, even when his opponent is bigger than he is and he knows he's going to lose! —Jonathan Joestar, in "Chapter 1" from JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken - Part 1 : Phantom Blood
I... I'm no match for [Dio]... but I can't afford to lose now! If I lose, I'll be living in Dio's shadow for the rest of my life! Above all else, I have to fight to reclaim Erina's honor! —Jonathan Joestar, in "Chapter 4" from JoJo no Kimyou na Bouken - Part 1 : Phantom Blood

Greetings. Ayaka has mentioned you on numerous occasions — alas, my schedule has been rather busier than anticipated recently, which belated our first meeting until today. Kamisato Ayato, head of the Kamisato Clan. Delighted to make your acquaintance. —Kamisato Ayato, from Genshin Impact
Good morning. A little sword practice while the day is young is good for the body and mind. I tend to avoid having anything scheduled during these hours... What do you say? Fancy crossing blades with me? —Kamisato Ayato, from Genshin Impact
If there's anything in particular you'd like for lunch, just let one of my staff know in advance. As my honored guest, I'm sure they will do their utmost to accommodate you. —Kamisato Ayato, from Genshin Impact
Trusting another person isn't easy, especially for someone of high status. Place your trust in the wrong person, and it can quite literally cost you your life. But you have placed your trust in me, and of course I will not let you down. —Kamisato Ayato, from Genshin Impact
What's that? Join you for a walk? Why not. —Kamisato Ayato, from Genshin Impact
Hey... how about we go for a nice meal some time? My treat, of course. —Thoma, from Genshin Impact
I feel like there's something I forgot to do... hmm, I tidied the courtyard, put the tea on... Eh, it's probably just my mind playing tricks on me. —Thoma, from Genshin Impact
I guess the housework can wait. —Thoma, from Genshin Impact
On the lunch menu today, we have Sakura Tempura and Tricolor Dango! Here, there's some for you, some for Paimon, and I also put some aside for milady and the man of the clan himself. Ah, wait, I forgot someone... There's none for me... —Thoma, from Genshin Impact
Really? This'll make me stronger? You'd better not be kidding, I have stacks of laundry to do. —Thoma, from Genshin Impact
Xingqiu at your service, my liege! I humbly trust that even one such as I, a mere bookworm, may yet prove to be of some utility under your wise leadership. Nice, I don't often get a chance to speak with such formality. It felt pretty good! —Xingqiu, from Genshin Impact
Chivalry will never die. —Xingqiu, from Genshin Impact
I am most grateful for your company on my journey. I am proud of my achievements, both in the martial arts and in championing the cause so dear to my heart. ...Ah, I guess there's no need to euphemize any longer. Chivalry! That is the cause that inspires me, and that I seek to champion. Why should I shy away from it? I am sure my father and brother are under no illusion as to what I stand for by now. ...But of course, I still need to be somewhat discreet in the way I go about my business. —Xingqiu, from Genshin Impact
Are you keeping well, my liege? If you have no other matters to attend to, might I recommend a trip to the Wanwen Bookhouse? —Xingqiu, from Genshin Impact
May my final stand be a monument to chivalry. —Xingqiu, from Genshin Impact
May knowledge guide you. —Xingqiu, from Genshin Impact
Good night. I am quite fond of the image of a perfectly still body of water, and it is on this note that I would like to wish you a peaceful, undisturbed sleep. May no waves of emotional distress ripple through your dreams tonight. —Neuvillette, from Genshin Impact
Greetings. I am the Chief Justice, or 'Iudex' of Fontaine, but you may simply address me by using my surname, 'Neuvillette.' Not because I wish to keep my distance from you... No, I am merely conscious that being overly familiar may bring the impartiality of the judiciary into question in some people's eyes. If you have any requests or concerns, then — to the extent permissible by law, at least — we can sit down and discuss them together as we partake of some imported water from Qiaoying Village. —Neuvillette, from Genshin Impact
Some days, my mind wanders, and I fantasize about walking into the rain... *sigh* Ah, but don't worry, my flights of fancy don't distract me from my work. —Neuvillette, from Genshin Impact
Thank you for permitting— No, inviting me to join you. —Neuvillette, from Genshin Impact
Perhaps we could take a walk by a riverbank or somewhere similarly fluvial. —Neuvillette, from Genshin Impact
The Kaedehara Clan was once a famed samurai clan. It's a pity that by the time the noble name passed to me, the title itself was all that was left. But it is enough for me. A samurai has no need of a lavish life — we find all that we need in wine, song, and the blade in our hands. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
You'd like to know more about me, you say? Well, as you see, I am but a wandering samurai that you could have run into just about anywhere. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
Want me to come along? —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
Heh, calm as the breeze, my lady —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
Perhaps you should get some rest? A weary mind is a recipe for flavorless food. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
There are leaves around — and I know just the tune to accompany them, if you wish to hear it. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
The birdsong at daybreak is nature's gift to us. Let us go. Our journey begins anew. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
Ah, you'd like to learn the art of the sword? Let me see... Alright — here, take this. It's a bamboo blade I just made. With these, we can practice sparring without having to worry about getting injured. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
'On this mountain path, where the red leaves lifeless lie... My heart calls for a companion, echoing the deer's cry...' Hm... I do love maple leaves, but it is a shame that so many goodbyes seem to happen when they turn red. —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
I heard it was your birthday, so I wrote a haiku for you. Unfortunately, I'm not the most talented in this area, and after trying for several evenings, I was still only able to come up with the first two lines... I guess I'll just share what I've got so far, then. 'Sun and moon rejoice / Birds of dawn sing songs anew'... Wait, don't say a word, I think the final line is coming to me... Yes, how about.... 'Far from home, with you.' Anyway, Happy Birthday. Let's go and get you some cake, shall we? —Kaedehara Kazuha, from Genshin Impact
