Senior Quotes

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

Ack! First time posting, it makes it super nervous!!!

Hey everyone~ I have a favor/question to ask of the community~

I'll be graduating soon, and for my school's yearbook we have to come up with our "favorite quote." While I may have "favorite quotes," they are either too playful or they just don't seem to fit what I would like to put in a yearbook (you know?) Plus I never found out who said them, if anyone ever did, but that's beside the point.......

So, my favor/question to the community is this:

Coming from Arashi (from interviews or songs) do you have any memorable quotes that leave an impact, or even left one on you?


While the quotes don't have to be only from Arashi (they can be your own favorite quotes~), I came up with this solution since I love when they speak (is it me, or do they have this strange way of making things sound unbelievably sweet and important?) and they're songs are really sweet and memorable. So if I can quote one of my favorite people or songs, then that would be better than having quotes that I remember only because they were witty ^^;


Thank you/sorry for your time!


P.S. If you can actually give me the original Japanese, then that would be super duper awesome! =D

One more thing~ Since I really want to try/see different types of quotes, I'm also asking a fan community of a different band^^;

Thank you in advance! =D

From Sho's Hip Hop Boogie:

"My life is my message"

[j-4ever.livejournal.com]

hmm~ probably from 5x10

"We genuinely cried, we genuinely laughed, we genuinely worried, we genuinely lived and now, we can stand tall with pride."

<3

(it seems to fit with a yearbook, non?)

Personally I really like that line in Love So Sweet with the "shinjiru no koto ga subete" = Believing is everything! <3

[corlee1289.livejournal.com]

Then there's the overall song of the Fight Song <3

Lol, you know? I was actually listening to that song the other day and loving those lines, but it never hit me what they really were really saying XD;;

Thank you for the suggestion! =D

=o

Oh wow, it does, doesn't it?~ ♥

Thank you for the suggestion!! =D

2 for 1?

I'll reply to this comment since it's the later one~ ^^;

Haha, I never think about these things do I? *listening to those songs earlier today*

Thank you!~ =D

I've got a couple. I actually made it into a couple of pictures a way back (one with the quotes in English and the other in Japanese)

My personal favorite is "Step by step, if there's no path nearby that you can take, then your only choice is to walk the path you believe in" from 5x10

link to other quotes...
Japanese: http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a258/One_duck/Arashianfavoritelyrics.jpg
English: http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a258/One_duck/ArashianfavoritelyricsEnglish.jpg

Best place to get lyrics from is Aibakaland though. =]

*Loling everywhere*

That would be so cuticle to have, wouldn't it?~

Sankyuu! ♥

My senior quote for my yearbook last year was

"There are many reasons to laugh in the middle of a strong wind even if it seems impossible"

「無理して笑うには理由がなさすぎて　強い風の中だ 」
Its from Kotoba Yori Taisetusnamono♥

I hope your having a great senior year ! （*＾▽＾）ノ

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

Yay! This is really helpful!~ =D

I was going to do that actually~ Go through all the lyrics, I mean. But, I only have a week to think about it and I have finals this same week, so I wouldn't really have time....

But I know that Arashi fans are awesome and would help~ =D

Thank you for the quotes! ♥

Re: 2 for 1?

[corlee1289.livejournal.com]

HAHA XD

No problem! I think the songs that were most touching were Love So Sweet, One Love, the Fight Song and 5x10 which has the most significant impact... Perhaps along with My Girl...

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

Yay! I was hoping someone would have done the same thing =D

I love Kotoba Yori >w

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

You know? That's always on my messenger name and I actually use it every now and then XD!

I might actually be able to get away with it~ =D

Thank you!~

Oh my God this was a really great idea! I have to decide on my senior quote for the yearbook too! Arashi lyrics would totally fit! :D

My personal favorites are Kotoba Yori Taisetsu na Mono - "Anata yori mo ookina ai wa doko ni mo nain da yo" (which is like, "There's no bigger love than you anywhere" or somethig?), Kaze no Mukou e's "Hikari to kage sono mukou e, yami wo terasu kimi no koe" (beyond the light and shadow, your voice that lights up the darkness? Sorry I don't remember the translation! XD) Boku wa Boku no Subete has always been really good too, for the whole setting-out-into-life stuff. =)

...My message didn't finish XD;

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

I would say that I am having a good year, but I'm in the middle of finals and stuff, so it wouldn't be a convincing idea XD;

Thank you for the suggestion!~ ♥

[edogawaness.livejournal.com]

there are a whole ton, but if i was going to pick a few for graduation...

i always really liked the chorus of Boku ga Boku no Subete
particularly 「確かな事は僕が造った道, それだけは変らない 」
"The only thing that won't change is the path I've created."

Or from Sakura Sake,
「振り向くな 後ろには明日はないから, 前を向け」
"Don't look back because tomorrow isn't behind you, look forward"

[scribblyness-x.livejournal.com]

Ack, I can't remember what the exact quote was but Ohno said something in an interview once in the gist of 'everything that I am doing now has meaning further on in life'. It irks me that I can't remember, reading it had profound impact on me.

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

It is isn't it?~ Even if you feel a little dorky about it later on in your life, at least it would bring back nice memories~

I hope you also look at all the suggestions everyone is giving me too~ They're all really nice =D

But your suggestions are really helpful! Thank you~ ♥

[pebblegosling.livejournal.com]

Ahh, good luck! =D
Glad to help!
Enjoy the rest of your senior year!

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

Someone had just said about Boku go Boku no Subete, so thank you for pointing out which line is a good one! =D

Ah~ Sakura Sake~ Girls did vote it the best spirit lifting song for a reason, didn't they?~ XD;;

Thank you for the suggestions!! ♥ =D

Whoa, this is awesome!! Actually I've been thinking about what good thing to write for a long time as well (so scary that we have to sum up our thoughts/feelings in just a few sentences! and will forever be remembered with them too!)... and I'm also in my last year of high school. Great ideas! I'm not sure when the due date is for quotes at my school, but I'll bookmark this. Yay for such a wonderful Arashi community :D :D

[katyami.livejournal.com]

Oh and..sorry that I don't have any thoughts right now! I actually never thought of using Arashi lyrics...so I guess now I'll listen to the songs more carefully. Hehehe. :)

[k-is-for-taty.livejournal.com]

Aw, it would be awesome to have a quote from Riida, wouldn't it?~

Just the gist sounds really promising!~ ♥

If you remember, please swing by again and tell me?~ If not, then maybe someone else might know~

Thank you! =D
