- Tohru Honda: I heard that President Takei's been telling everyone that he'd like YOU to be the one who replaces him, but you haven't decided to run yet, have you?
- Yuki Sohma: Well... I don't know. President Takei and the others... I think they're expecting something more from me than I can give them. I mean, if they knew the real me then they'd know.
- Tohru Honda: Know what?
- Yuki Sohma: [suddenly realizing he's spoken private misigivings aloud] Uh? Oh, it's not important. Forget I said it.
- [Tohru and the boys discuss the beginnings of Kisa's problems at school]
- Momiji Sohma: She looked different from everyone, so they made fun of her.
- Hatsuharu Sohma: I guess that's just another part of the zodiac curse for those of us with different-colored hair. I used to get made fun of a lot.
- Yuki Sohma: Yes, but whenever the other kids tried to pick on you, you would go black and chase them around the schoolyard.
- Hatsuharu Sohma: It's better than Kyo. He would actually beat them half to death.
- Yuki Sohma: [reading the letter from Kisa's teacher] "I hope you will learn to feel good about yourself." What is that supposed to mean? How are you supposed to find these good qualities, I wonder, if the reason you don't feel good about yourself is that all you can find are qualities you don't like? I don't think you can. Not like that. That's not how it works. I think what it takes is for someone else to say, "I like you." That's the only way you can truly begin to like yourself. When someone else accepts you, that's when you begin to see yourself - through THEIR eyes - and you begin to realize that there may actually be many qualities to like about yourself.
