"This is a world where mankind seeks to dominate others, even though man cannot control himself. It is a world of distortion and tragedy. There are those who wish to reform the world, or at the very least, themselves...such are known as 'fools'. But perhaps it takes a fool to succeed where the wise have failed. Thou, fool...now it's time for you step forward, and face the tragedy that is man..."
Quotations
"I am thou. Thou art I...behold thy rage, that could sunder the world entire. Thou, who have come this far knowing that the truth will bring thee nothing but pain; show the strength of thy will, to keep moving forward, to take thy desires with thine own hands...even if thou were lost for all eternity! Now...CALL MY NAME!"
—Unit-01, during its first manifestation
"Then let us recall our oath. I am thou. Thou art I. Thou art one who has been called to make decisions no child should make. Thou, who has stood aside for long enough, waiting for the world to decide for him! Reject that wretched philosophy, that coward's creed...and regardless of what may come...CHOOSE FOR THYSELF!"
—Hamlet, during Shinji's first Persona Awakening
