“	This wasn’t my family. They were slave traders. I was sold to them, after my parents died. Last night they stopped being traders, or murderers, they were all just victims. Sakura, Kasumi, and Akane. I only knew them for a few days, but they protected me like I was their own. I am just a boy, but I should have protected them. They’re gone. I have to live, because they died for me! I wanted their graves to be beautiful, all I could find were these ugly rocks, but it’s the best I can do. I wish I had flowers... They all deserve flowers.	„
	~ Shinta to Hiko Seijūrō XIII

“	Kasumi. Akane. Sakura. All three forcibly taken from their parents as payment for their debts. I only knew them for a day, but I was the only one here, and I have no parents. So I thought, even if it costs my life…I’ll have to protect them. But...I couldn’t find the right stones to make a nice grave for them, like I wanted. I looked for flowers to offer, but I couldn’t find even one.	„
	~ Shinta to Hiko Seijūrō XIII

“	Perhaps... Even so, my hands will bring relief to those who have learned to live without hope. A human being who feeds on his brother is not a man anymore, he is a mad dog...and should be dealt the same fate.	„
	~ Kenshin Himura to Hiko Seijūrō XIII

“	If when I finally lay down my blood-stained blade... there is truly an era of peace... then...	„
	~ Kenshin Himura to Katsura Kogorō

“	I've lost you. And now that my heart feels this pain, I know the nightmare I made you endure with my actions. You suffered a pain like this when I killed your love, and now it's all over. Mine has just begun, as I seek a way to atone for my wrongs. I must repay the people who's lives I've destroyed. I will do this to honor your memory. For now, I carry this with me as I carried your body back to our home. I will live honorably for you. You showed me how to live like a man. You encouraged a calm in my inner self. I didn't fully appreciate the value of other people until you taught me to see the value of my own life. You saved me. You... you were the first person to want me, not for what I could do for them, but for what I was as a human being. And for that I will always adore you, my love, I swear. I will have to leave you soon, but let me have a few moments here with you, together. Please. Goodbye, my dearest love, Tomoe...	„
	~ Kenshin Himura's eulogy to Tomoe Yukishiro

“	You asked me a long time ago... Would I kill you if you held a sword? The answer is... "I wouldn't." I will not kill you. No matter what may happen, I will never kill you. Never... you...	„
	~ Kenshin Himura to Tomoe Yukishiro

“	It doesn't matter, use whatever technique you like. But... once I've said I'll kill you... Your death is assured!	„

“	Oro?	„
	~ Kenshin Himura

“	The ones who create an era are not swords, but the people who wield the swords.	„
	~ Kenshin Himura

“	I would never reverse my blade. This blade stands in defense of peace, it's not a tool for death! And it never will be.	„
	~ Kenshin Himura to Makoto Shishio

“	I am a mere Rurouni. I'm a travelling swordsman with no destination.	„

“	The Sakabato. Give it to me.	„
	~ Kenshin Himura to Myōjin Yahiko

“	The name "Kenshin" was given to me by my master. It was a name for a man, of swordsmanship. That time is past me now, and the name is no longer appropriate. The name my parents gave was different. "Shinta." That is my real and true name. When I come back, will you instead call me by that name?	„
	~ Kenshin Himura to Kaoru Kamiya

“	Kaoru. I've thought much since I left my sword. The days are peaceful, and yet unhappiness still lingers. So many wounds healing, but the scars of disaster, poverty, illness... No matter how much times change, these scars fail to fade away. With my sword gone, I've lost the power to protect people, but I still suffer, and share their pain. I am not certain it can be enough to suffer silently for others with no action to alleviate it. But I think it must be of some value to try to bear the pain of others. What strength I have, I should give for their encouragement, to try to...help them, don't you think?	„
