Subaru: [is smoking quietly] I met Seishirou-san when I needed him, when I needed someone like him. Whether it was true or not, at the time he was the only person who really encouraged me to be myself, to do what I wanted to--and to understand that what I wanted to do would come with a price, that I really affected the world around me and was affected by it. [sighs] I've always been a very selfish person. But he taught me that everyone is, everyone's selfish, everyone's lonely, and everyone's in pain. Even him--he never really admitted it, but I learned it anyway. And the difference between people who know that everyone hurts and people who don't...well. If you think people can be happy, or are supposed to be happy, you'll try to save the ones who aren't. But if they're not...if pain and want and selfishness are the status quo, if it's never been a good world...then saving them is an illusion.
Vossler: Then they deserve a right to the illusion of happiness.
Subaru: There is no way for everyone to be happy.
Vossler: Then you choose the people you want to make happy--the people who deserve to be--and you do everything you can to make them that way.
Subaru: Is that what you did for Her Majesty?
Vossler: It is what I strove to do. I had seen her happy, had seen her free, and would give aught to achieve that.
Subaru: Because it would make you happy to have done that for her.
Vossler: Because it is right.
Subaru: Because it makes you happy to be right.
Vossler: ...
Subaru: The trouble with relying on others for your happiness is that they're just like you--they're concerned with their own.
Vossler: Your Seishirou taught you a fatal lesson.
Subaru: Think of the one you taught Her Majesty.
