Evangelion: Group shot of the entire cast
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Neon Genesis Evangelion is a show that's dripping with philosophy and deep insights into the human condition, so naturally, it's a source for some incredible quotes. While most of the characters in Evangelion aren't role models, they do occasionally have some insights that are worth listening to.
9 "I mustn't run away." - Shinji Ikari, Episode 3 This line is uttered like a mantra by Shinji numerous times, something he says to help keep himself from freaking out and fleeing the scene of battle. While it serves as a sign that Shinji's mental state isn't the best, as a quote, it holds a bit more meaning. After all, if Shinji were to run away, the fate of the world could be decided due to his inaction.
7 "Pain is something man must endure in his heart." - Kaworu Nagisa, Episode 24 Kaworu can be a controversial character, but his observations and musings about the nature of humanity tend to be pretty on point. Kaworu says this to Shinji in their first real conversation, a rather deep cut for two people who are essentially just meeting.
5 "Part of growing up means finding a way to interact with others while distancing pain." - Misato Katsuragi, Episode 3 Another quote from Misato, this one is said to Ritsuko while discussing the fact that Shinji needs to grow up a bit and learn how to deal with other people. Notice that Misato never denies that interacting with others can bring pain; that's a truth of life that no one can change.
More metaphorically, there are challenges which can be faced and overcome, and those which one must succumb to. Choosing not to fight is not the same as losing, and may even be the wiser choice if it saves resources for other problems which can be more easily dealt with. Fighting for a lost cause might seem noble, but if the only result is getting killed, was it really worth it?
