Naruto quotes

Shikamaru

So why do I always have to fight girls? It sucks man.

Ino

Yeah, go Shikamaru! Use a super awesome technique on her and take that bitch down!

Shikamaru

[watching clouds] Ah, sometimes I wish I was a cloud just floating along, going wherever the breeze takes me.

Temari

I don't believe this. The whole time I thought I was keeping out of range of his shadow jutsu when really I was walking right into it. Amazing. This slacker clown outsmarted me.

Asuma

The next move is checkmate.

Kakashi

Did you say something?

Oh! You make me so mad, Kakashi! Why do you always have to act so cool?

The secret of its jab is in the speed with which it is delivered and the ninja's ability to focus his chakra at the point of impact. Once these two elements, speed and focus have attained a certain level, the chakra actually becomes visible and gives off the distinctive sound that you hear, like birds chirping. It is this sound that gives the technique its name: Chidori, 1000 birds!

Kankuro

That's impossible. No one can penetrate his defenses.

Temari

No way.

I don't believe it.

Excellent.

That technique, it's Kakashi's.

Also known as lightning blade.

Sakura

But why's that?

It got its name because Kakashi once used it to cut a bolt of lightning in half before it could touch the ground.

Sakura

Wow, cutting lightning in half.

Ino

Yeah right. These old guys and their war stories.

But whether called thousand birds or lightning blade, it's a weapon of unimaginable power, requiring almost inhuman levels of speed and chakra. But once perfected, it transforms a ninja's arm into an indestructible and invincible sword. A dangerous technique, not to be taught lightly.

Kakashi

Yeah you're one to talk. [Turns to Rock Lee] Right, Lee?

Gaara

Its so warm and wet... Mother, what is it...? BLOOD! IT'S MY BLOOD!

You're all sweaty too. So gross.

Come on, we're all friends here right?

Orochimaru

This petty little battle game ends now. From this point on, the course of history will change.

Orochimaru

I find it very interesting to watch things in motion. I get no pleasure when the world is still, like a windmill that isn't turning. I suppose some might find it beautiful even if it's immobile, but to me, such a thing is truly boring. So now I want to put things in motion myself. The first step is crushing the Leaf Village.

Shikamaru

[Thinking as he prepares to sacrifice himself to help Sakura and Naruto escape] All I really wanted was to be just an average shinobi making an average living. I'd marry a regular girl who's not super pretty or super ugly, have two kids, a girl and then a boy, retire when my daughter got married and my son became a successful ninja, and then just spend the rest of my days playing Shogi or Go, a nice carefree and leisurely retirement, and then I'd die of old age before my wife. Yep, that's the life I wanted, and yet I ended up exerting myself. It's so unlike me. Even though I wanted to finish as just a regular guy, I had to go and get myself into this sticky situation.

Orochimaru

[summoning the First and Second Hokage to fight the Third Hokage] Have you ever felt the joy and fulfillment of humiliating and destroying the one you once called sensei? No I suppose not. Perhaps vicariously you'll get a hint of what I mean. Just a taste, before you die.

[seeing Orochimaru] You fool, Sarutobi. You should've killed him when you had the chance.

Orochimaru

The immortality jutsu. A technique for eternally recycling one's spirit on Earth. In a way, it's a kind of revival jutsu. You find a body, a young body, pour your spirit into it, and make it your own. I was using my old familiar form until now because I wanted our reunion to be a nice nostalgic one, sensei. Growing old is a sad empty thing. I only have to look at you to be reminded of that. You will die here old man, while I move on to another stronger body. But first I really must thank you and all the Leaf Village for preparing my next body so well.

Now I understand. It's Sasuke Uchiha.

Orochimaru

Exactly. You guessed it. It's Sasuke I want.

Orochimaru

[To Sarutobi] What nonsense! In the grand scheme of time, you're nothing more than a trivial footnote in the brief history of a cluster of huts called the Leaf Village! In time, the Hokage Stone Faces will crumble and be worn down to nothing...

[To Orochimaru] Hmph, you've never understood that it's far more than a mere 'cluster of huts'. It is a place where every year, Shinobi are born, raised, grow old, fight, and die to protect their home. These people are precious to me. We share a home, we share a life, and though we may not share ties of blood... they are precious to me! They are my family!

Orochimaru

You know how the game of chess is played... pieces must be sacrificed!
