"I know exactly how strong I am, and I never walk into something blind. And with all do respect Sakuraba, you don't know what I can and cannot handle. You all think that just because I'm not afraid that I don't understand the consequences of my actions? It's the other way around. I'm not afraid because I know exactly how expendable I am. and I'm getting really tired of everyone thinking that just because I'm willing to accept the results of my actions that some how means I haven't thought them out! Just because I'm the only person doing who's here, doing this for a cause, it doesn't make me a fool."
