- Motoko Minagawa: I love Yuki. I love his beautiful silver hair and the way it sparkles in the sunlight, his creamy white skin, the way his luscious lashes caress his cheeks when his eyes are closed, his sweet, sweet voice... I love everything. Yuki is my everything.
- Motoko Minagawa: I just wanted to tell you that I think you're really beautiful.
- Motoko Minagawa: Thank you. That's very kind of you to say.
- Motoko Minagawa: [waxing rhapsodic over Yuki's photo, thinking of when she first met him] Ever since that day, I have been a slave to love. And my small pitiful heart - it has been filled to the breaking point with my love of you. Yuki... Ah, Yuki... It is my fate to be forever cursed and blessed by visions of your angelic face. Like a prick upon the thorn of a rose, your love...
- Motoko"s Mother: [bursting into the bedroom] For the love of... Keep it down, Motoko! You're waking the neighbors!
- Motoko Minagawa: Mother, haven't you ever heard of knocking?
- Motoko"s Mother: Sure. Knock, knock, knock! Can I come in, Princess Loudmouth? Now, enough of this silly crush of yours. Go to bed!
- Motoko Minagawa: I don't believe it! Yuki just smiled at me!
- Yuki Sohma: Miss Minagawa?
- Motoko Minagawa: Ahh, the sight of that smile is like a million volts down my spine. And what's more, we both like steamed leeks. It's as though we were destined to be together.
- Yuki Sohma: Miss Minagawa? I'm wondering. Is this something you do often?
- Motoko Minagawa: Hm?
- Yuki Sohma: That is, do you ALWAYS talk to yourself like this?
- Motoko Minagawa: I can't stand any other girl getting close to him, whether it's Tohru Honda or the girl who MIGHT join student council or the new fan club president. How can I choose another girl to take my place? I hate them all. All of them. They're enemies, every single one. But, really, the one I hate the most - is myself.
