The Vision of Escaflowne - Best Quotes



Here I am again to report great messages in movies, books, songs or whatever has words in them. This time my feet took me to my local library; I love this place. Free movies, great books; you can even learn a new language and I check them all out for free. Look around your city for the closest library, get your card and explore the world and messages found within those walls.
So there I am looking for movies to watch and of course I have to read through the Anime collection. I figure I should give a new Anime a chance and my hand pick up The Vision of Escaflowne.

Great pick I must say, the story line completely took me into an unknown world where the earth is called the Mystic Moon and its seen above in their sky. This planet is called Gaea.
The Anime is fun, it keeps you glued to what's to come next. It has a great message around trusting your intuitions and mastering the mind so that your thoughts can't have the power to become true, because if you think about something long enough; it will become your reality. Its an all around great story line, I expected similar plots but I was completely blown away. All characters are so different, with great goals and dreams. There is war, love, jealousy, confusion, betrayal, friendship, broken hearts; a great mix of emotions for a great story. Plus is all delivered with sweet and smart dialogue; this is the most important fact. The dialogue is very interesting and captivating, full of messages that we can all relate to on a day to day basis.
This is one Anime that came into my hands and my heart just at the right time. I've already witness the impact of their words in someone very close to me. Sometimes you might repeat something to someone, many times; but the words only get through at the right time to stay and heal you forever. Not surprise to find out that Yoko Kanno & Hajime Mizoguchi composed and produced the series soundtrack. Yoko Kanno's productions will always transport you into that world being portrait by these great Anime producers and writers. She is also behind the music in Cowboy Bebop and The Ghost in the Shell

I will keep adding more quotes as I go on finishing the 26 episodes that make up the entire series. It's just something I must do before I see the movie; which looks a bit changed. Following are my favorite quotes from Vision of Escaflowne:


"I want Van to live! I will stay with him. Until he realizes he is not alone... until his sorrow is no more... I will stay by his side. There is no sorrow that never ceases. I want to believe that. Just as the rain will eventually stop and reveal a blue sky that we both can see." - Hitomi Kanzaki

"I too am alone. It's sad being alone. It's painful. I felt that way too. But if we're together, at times we may hurt each other, and we may even part. But, that is not the end. I'll always be with you."-Hitomi Kanzaki

 "Conflict may erupt at anytime in any place, war is the destiny of which humanity can never wash its hands"

"Earth - all bodies share a common principal, based on their masses, bodies create a force which draws them together and other bodies together. That is gravity"

"If you go around with that nervous look on your face something bad is going to happened to you. Anyways is not like you to be depressed"

"The uneasy feelings lurking in your heart are calling forth a sad reality. Trust your feelings and your wishes will always come true"

"I will be alright if you believe, people's emotions sometimes moves the heavens, but when those emotions conflict; it can cause great ill will. If people just rid themselves of that, they can change"

"There is something that I've learned. I don't believe in pre-meditated fate"

"This love they have for each other. This emotion of theirs...does it surpass even that fate of war which is born of man? Can a single moment last forever? This moment created by two easily swayed human hearts?"
