Quotes 

• Taro : [to Zushio]  I found that humans have little sympathy for things that don't directly concern them. They're ruthless. Unless those hearts can be changed, the world you dream of cannot come true. If you wish to live honestly with your conscience, keep close to the Buddha.

• Taro : Even children as young as you are sold and bought, treated like animals, and nobody questions it. What a horrible world.
