"It’s not necessarily that I was unable to express feelings, but more that I was unable to identify them in the first place." - Yungjae, Almond

“It’s good to help others if there’s no harm.”

When he came over the next day, I agreed to his offer. But I would’ve made a different choice had I met Gon earlier. Because by making this decision, I unintentionally stole something from him forever." - Yunjae, Almond

“Why do I need to get out of your way? I’m just gonna go about my way as usual. If you’re not there, I won’t see you. If you are there, I’ll see you.”

All I could think of was that Gon was bullying himself in an exhausting way." - Yunjae (CH32, Almond)

"There is no such person who can’t be saved. There are only people who give up on trying to save others. It’s a quote by the American accused-murderer-turned-writer P. J. Nolan." -Yunjae (Ch36, Almond)

“I try to stay away from judging people easily. Everyone is different. Even more so at your age.” - Dr Shim (Ch37, Almond)

Chapter 45: "You're basically a black canvas. Better to fill it up with good things rather than bad things."- Dr. Shim, Almond

Chapter 45: "Think of a rock on the street. It doesn't feel anything, and it never gets hurt either. A rock has no idea when people are kicking it. But imagine if it felt how many times it got kicked, stomped in, rolled, and worn down every day, how would it cope?" - Dr. Shim

Chapter 49: "If Gon tried to teach me pain, guilt, and agony, Dora taught me flowers and scents, breezes and dreams." - Yunjae, Almond

Chapter 54: "“Old books seem all right, though. They have a richer scent that’s more alive. Like how autumn leaves smell.” - Dora, Almond

Chapter 59: "I wanted to read between the lines. I wanted to be someone who truly understood the meaning of an author’s words. I wanted to know more people, to be able to engage in deep conversations, and to learn what it was to be human." - Yunjae, Almond

Chpater 59: "Do you think I could make others understand me, even though I can’t understand myself?” - Yunjae, Almond

Chapter 62: "When sadness and disappointment get out of control, and there is no solution, people start thinking bad thoughts." - Professor Yun, Almond

Chapter 72: "Most people could feel but didn’t act. They said they sympathized, but easily forgot. The way I see it, that was not real.

I didn’t want to live like that." - Yunjae, Almond
