Quotes

Death Note

Edit
  • L: [to Light] You're the one who flew into the sun, I'm just here to make sure you burn!
  • Ryuk: Shall we begin?
  • [last lines]
  • [L has the Death Note - Ryuk appears to Light]
  • Light Turner: What?
  • Ryuk: [laughs] You humans are so interesting!
  • L: The individual known as Kira, as I'm sure you're aware, has taken credit for over 400 deaths. While we don't know how he kills his victims, we do know how he chooses them. Prior to these deaths, all of the victims have had their identities released to the media. This would suggest that Kira is not some omnipotent force. He's a person, like you or me. He is also a coward. A child wielding power he does not understand, mistakenly believing that in doing so, he's at no risk to himself. He's wrong. Kira, if you're watching this, know that I am coming for you. Unless, of course, you'd like to kill me now.
  • Ryuk: Rule 28: Each death must be physically possible. So no shark attacks while someone's on the toilet, as much as I love that idea.
  • Watari: Sleep is key to strong thought.
  • Light Turner: It's like you said, sometimes you gotta choose the lesser of the two evils.
  • James Turner: So which one are you, son?
  • Ryuk: Every human spends the last moments of his life in the shadow of a death god.
  • Light Turner: Okay, relax, Light. You're asleep. You're asleep and you're... dreaming of some 8-foot tall demon-looking motherfucker.
  • Ryuk: Ohhh, yes! A dream! I like that. Dreams are places you can have fun, right? It's all in your mind, so why not enjoy it?
  • Ryuk: You think I'm some dog, Light? You can just snap your fingers and I'll come running?
  • Light Turner: Rule one: The human whose name is written in this note shall die.
  • Light Turner: If you fuck with me, I'll write your fucking name in it!
  • Ryuk: Hah! You could try. Let me tell you this, Light: my name has four letters, most anyone's ever gotten were two.
  • Mia Sutton: We can change the world.
  • James Turner: How does Kira get to decide who lives and dies? Who's guilty, and innocent? Is there a complaint department if I don't like one of Kira's decisions - or would complaining just get me put on Kira's list?
  • Ryuk: [sees James Turner challenge Kira] Now I'm rooting for the guy!
  • Ryuk: The name and the face is all you have to have.
  • L: A man kills 400 people, he tells us that it's complicated - that he's just misunderstood. Do you think that Kira would hear his excuses? Or do you think that he'd walk him off a bridge?
  • Light Turner: I decide who dies, you do what I tell you. Those are the rules.
  • Ryuk: And who makes the rules?
  • Light Turner: Whose side are you on?
  • Ryuk: There are no sides, only the game!
  • Light Turner: Look at those people.
  • Mia Sutton: They're a bunch of sheep.
  • Light Turner: No, they're not. They're looking for someone who's not gonna let them down the ways cops do and politicians.
  • Mia Sutton: And that's why they have you.
  • Light Turner: It's like you said; sometimes, you gotta choose the lesser of the two evils.
  • James Turner: So, which one are you, son?
  • Mia Sutton: Light Turner's heart will stop at midnight.
