Izaya Orihara

— 99% of the time, whenever random violent crap happens, it seems you're somehow involved.
— And you can't have a little faith in that last one percent?

There’s no one who can live their whole life being completely uncorrupted.

Your guilt will be your past and that will be your God.

— I'm Izaya Orihara.
— Ryu... Ryuugamine Mikado.
— Your name sounds like an air conditioner!

To enjoy an ordinary life, you must constantly evolve.

Well, hurting girls isn’t one of my hobbies. That’s why I’ll make it my hobby to stomp on their cell phones.

You can run from your past all you want, but it will always follow you.

The harder you try to see the good in people the easier it is to fake you out.

It is absurd to divide people into good and bad. People are either charming or tedious.

To enjoy an ordinary life, you must constantly evolve.

Dying means to be gone. And what goes, is not your pain, but your existence itself. But in your mind, you think that you’d have a sense of “nothing” after you die. How can you call that “nothing”?

The human being… sometimes he’ll uphold his pride and conscience even if he’s offered ten billion yen, and other times he’ll murder someone over one yen.
