My Hero Academia

Pt4

A goal without a plan is just a wish.

Those who are bound by the chains of society laugh at those who aren't.

It's dangerous to make assumptions about what's normal for other people.

Good intentions alone are not enough to save the world.

If you can dream it you can do it.

Heroes cry when they need to.

It doesn't matter what your quirk is if you have an honourable heat.

You're never more powerful than when your life is at stake.

You wanna know why a hero wears a cape? So he can use it to comfort someone who's suffering! That's why!

No one is going to follow a demon with no heart.

There is no future, except the one you create.

Without joy and laughter to balance the sorrow, this world can not hope to have a bright future.

Mathematics is truly a cursed subject.

MY HERO ACADEMIA

Pt.1

Here's the sad truth. All man are not created equal.

Even when things seem impossible he never gives up.

No matter what anyone else thinks, I have to believe in myself.

I want people to see my fearless smile and feel safe, and be the kind of hero everyone looks up to. Just like you. - There's plenty of fear behind this smile.

I'm supposed to be the guy who's always smiling right? I'm the simbol of peace. People everywhere need to think that I'm never afraid. But honestly I smile to hide the fear inside. It's just a brave face I put on when the pressure is high.

It's not bad to have a dream young man, just make sure your dreams are attainable, realistic, understand?

It's not like I actually did anything to help today.  But at least I tried. Guess now I should get back to giving up on my dreams.

There are stories about every hero, how they became great. Most have one thing in common, their bodies moved before they had a chance to think, almost on their own.

Dreams can become a reality.

There's a difference between being lucky and deserving. One's an accident the other rewards. Never get the two confused.

A true hero is the one who overcomes life's misfortunes.

Nothing is more nobel than self-sacrifice.

It's cruel to let the kid keep dreaming of something that will never come true.

One should always start with the basics and devote themselves wholeheartedly to learning.

We looked at these villains and pure evil stared back.

The deeper the dark around you, the brighter the light shines when a ray of hope appears.

You think you can get away with being as violent as you want if you say it's for the sake of others.

Why do people get to decide that some violent acts are heroic and other are villainous.

Violence always brings more violence.

Criminals like you, you always try make your actions sound nobel.
