Show Hayami: Nicholas D. Wolfwood

Quotes 

• Wolfwood : [walking into a church]  I hope you don't mind me barging in like this. In spite of the profession I've chosen, I've never actually made a confession before. It's these times we live in. I did what it took to protect the children at any cost. That's how I always justified my actions. I took many people's lives, all that time believing there was no other way. My sins are so heavy. Too heavy. Too heavy to ever atone for. And yet, somehow I feel happy, at peace with myself today. It really can be done. Once you stop to think about it, there are plenty of ways to save everyone. Why didn't I ever listen to him? Why didn't I see that before it was too late?

• Wolfwood : I always knew you were no mere mortal... but I had no idea that you were a cat.

• Wolfwood : We're nothing like God. Not only do we have limited powers, but sometimes we're driven to become the devil himself. What's your answer this time?

• Wolfwood : Lord, what the hell am I doing here?

• Wolfwood : [about to face off with killer robots]  Oh yeah, I almost forgot. "Go with the grace and protection of the Lord." It's the usual mantra for the big hero.

  Vash the Stampede : Does it work?

  Wolfwood : That depends entirely on you.

  Vash the Stampede : Some mantra...

• Wolfwood : [about Milly]  She does everything I can't, like it's no big deal at all.

  [pause] 

  Wolfwood : It's really irritating...

• Vash the Stampede : [after jumping off a cliff onto a flying machine]  No matter how many times I do that I still feel like I'm gonna have a heart attack! This thing's going ba-da-boom, BA-DA-BOOM!

  Wolfwood : I thought you were committing suicide!

  Vash the Stampede : Suicide? I strongly disapprove of...

  [looks around] 

  Vash the Stampede : Wolfwood! What are you doing here?

  Wolfwood : YOU MANIAC! I followed you! What do you think you're doing crying your eyes out like a baby and jumping off of cliffs!

  Vash the Stampede : I'm visiting the folks.

  Wolfwood : What do you mean 'visiting the folks'? Do they have some kind of floating house in the sky!

• Wolfwood : [about Vash]  The way he looked at me... it was as though *he'd* shot the kid...

• Wolfwood : Was everything I did in my life a mistake? Would I be wrong, now, to ask for your forgiveness?

• Wolfwood : [stubbornly]  I'm not ready yet! There's still so much left to be done. I want to stay, with them! I don't want to die!

• Wolfwood : [to Vash]  You are an expert at pissing me off. Amazing!
