"You want me to understand your sadness? You think I'm going to sympathize with you? I swore to protect my daughter and my friends. If someone puts them in danger, they must stand aside or be cut down!"
- Nier, ESI.
Actually, these words feel depressed... The guy he's fighting againts also fight for his own daughter too...
https://quran.com/34/19
But they said, “Our Lord! Make ˹the distances of˺ our journeys longer,” wronging themselves.¹ So We reduced them to ˹cautionary˺ tales, and scattered them utterly. Surely in this are lessons for whoever is steadfast, grateful.
Indeed, Iblîs’ assumption about them has come true,¹ so they ˹all˺ follow him, except a group of ˹true˺ believers.
He does not have any authority over them, but ˹Our Will is˺ only to distinguish those who believe in the Hereafter from those who are in doubt about it. And your Lord is a ˹vigilant˺ Keeper over all things.”
...our seeking the truth in human motives for acting and thinking is destructive. With the truth, one cannot live. To be able to live one needs illusions, not only outer illusions such as art, religion, philosophy, science, and love afford, but inner illusions which first condition the outer. The more a man can take reality as truth, appearance as essence, the sounder, better adjusted, the happier he will be. At the moment when we begin to search after truth we destroy reality and our relation to it.
Truth and Reality, Otto Rank.
"I use the U. S. Mail because I was never taught any different," she pleaded. "But I'm not your enemy. I don't want to be."
