Puella Magi Madoka Magica quotes

Do you value your life? Do you think that your family and friends are important to you? If they are, then you should never think of changing yourself. Otherwise, you will lose everything that is precious to you.

You’re too kind. Remember this and take it to heart: kindness sometimes leads to even greater tragedy.

Say, how about we put an end to all of this? The two of us could become Witches and destroy everything! Everything in this world that has ever made us hate, everything that has ever made us cry, will turn to ashes until nothing is left, like it was all just a bad dream! We'd have no worries! Isn't that nice?

With kindness comes naivete. Courage becomes foolhardiness. And dedication has no reward. If you can't accept any of that, you are not fit to be a magical girl.

It's all useless.

Kindness can bring you even bigger troubles.

We're fighting for our own wishes. It's normal not to get noticed or remembered.

Even though I've lost my way, I will save you.

So how about we become monsters together?.. And turn this world upside down? So that... nothing bad... or sad... would remain. Destroy, destroy, destroy it all!

Repeat. I'll repeat it for however many times I have to. Until I find the only way out.

Madoka. My only friend... If... If it's for your sake... I don't mind being locked in this eternal maze!

On this planet you call females who have yet to become adults, girls. It makes sense then that since you'll eventually become withes, you should be called Magical Girls.

I can only say that the human curiosity is something completely irrational.

Do you know how many civilizations are crowded together in the universe and how much energy is used up in one second? Eventually, you humans, will leave this planet as well, and join us. You wouldn't want to be handed an empty, desolate universe then, would you?

Our contracts are completely dependent upon you agreeing to them first. I think that, in and of itself, is quite kind of us.

Why is it that when humans regret the decision based on a misunderstanding they feel resentment toward the other party?

If you ever feel like dying to help the universe, just let me know. I'll be waiting.

In our culture, the phenomena known as emotion is considered a mental disorder.

Make a contract with me, and become a magical girl!

Whenever we pray for someone's happiness, someone else must be cursed in exchange.

The balance between hope and despair keeps itself to zero. When was it you told me that? I understand what you mean now, I did save quite a few people, but in exchange hatred and jealousy filled my heart, I even hurt my best friend. Someone has to be cursed to balance out a wish for someone else's happiness.

Someone has to be cursed to balance out a wish for someone else's happiness. That's how we, magical girls, work.

It really shouldn't be all that uncommon - having a wish you'd go so far as to trade your life for. I think there are a lot of people in the world with wishes and desires like that. If we can't think of anything, it just means that we really haven't had anything that bad happen to us. We've had too much given to us and have become dull and stupid. It makes me wonder: Why us? Don't you think it's unfair? I'm sure there are other people who'd really want a chance like this.

I don't regret using my wish for another's sake. If I regret my decision now, the feelings upon which it was based will be for naught.

Now that I think about it, I really didn't understand anything back then. Neither what it meant to pray for a miracle...nor the price of one.

That sort of thing happens all the time. You get drunk on your own “correctness,” and the more stubborn you get, the further happiness flies away from you. It’s a bitter pill to swallow.

It sucks, but you can't reach a happy ending just by doing what's right all the time. Actually, the more people get stubborn and insist they're in the right, the further away happiness gets.

You need to learn how to make mistakes before you grow up. When you are young, you can recover quickly when hurt. When you get older it's harder to make mistakes. The more responsibilities, the less mistakes you are allowed to make.

If you use your wish to grant someone else's, you should be careful you know exactly why you are doing it. Are you really doing it for someone else's benefit? Or the opposite, you're doing it for that person's everlasting gratitude.

You shouldn't want to be like me, I'm... just trying to act cool. No matter how scary it is, how hard it is, I can't talk to anyone about it. I always cry alone. Being a Magical Girl isn't good at all.

Hey God, if you're there, my life has really sucked. So please, for once, let me have a sweet dream.

If someone says it's wrong to hope, I will tell them that they're wrong every time. I could tell them that countless times!
