Light quotes from Death Note

This world is still rotten!.. With too many rotten people.

Our battle will be concluded, and I will begin my reign from the summit of victory!

In the end, L is indeed the greatest detective on earth...

But you know the saying, "play with fire, and you'll get burned". I'll make you regret underestimating L...underestimating me.

That's right, I am Kira. And what can you do? Kill me right here? (Ep. 37)

Kira has become law in the world we now live. He's the one who's maintaining order. I have become justice. The only hope for mankind. Kill me? Is that really the right thing to do? Since Kira's appearance six years ago, wars have stopped and global crime rates have been reduced by over 70 percent. But... it's not enough, this world is still rotten! With too many rotten people. Somebody has to do this! And when I first got that notebook all those years ago I knew I had to do it. No, I was the only one who could! I understood that killing people was a crime... THERE WAS NO OTHER WAY! THE WORLD HAD TO BE FIXED! A PURPOSE GIVEN TO ME! Only I could do it... WHO ELSE COULD HAVE DONE IT?! AND COME THIS FAR?! WOULD THEY HAVE KEPT GOING?! The only one who can create a new world... is me. (Ep. 37)

MATSUDA, YOU IDIOT! WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE SHOOTING AT?! DON'T SCREW WITH ME! (Ep. 37)
