Knuckleduster: He puts on a mask and becomes someone else. You run into guys like that now and then. They put on a mask or a disguise, and they're convinced they're no longer their usual selves. They think they're some unbeatable superman. Guys like that are trouble, because they ignore social mores and their own safety when they come at you. But they're also fragile when you come at them.

Ryuk: Humans are... so much fun.

Kusco: Man is content with this small world. No one is brave enough to venture out into the universe. They confine themselves to this solar system and ship in resources from other planets. All they care for is luxury. Men run from the sound of thunder, and wear make-up and high heels. What if an advanced lifeform, brave and spirited, and full of reckless might, with the power to cross space were to attack the Earth at a time like this? A human race that's heading off to golfing ranges and amusement centers wouldn't stand a chance.

Jason: Do you know where the root of terror comes from? It starts with fear. Yeah. Humans. Humans fear the unknown. And there is nothing more unknowable than us.

"There is much to fear in this world... but nothing more so than humans."

Kazutaka Hyōdō: For just that small sum of money before their eyes, people can endure a lot. The rich make use of that quality to lead comfortable lives, being waited upon by others. A king is not king on his own. If the poor unite and rebel, declaring that they don't need money, the king will be vanquished. But the poor pursue money in the hopes of becoming king. This strengthens the existence of the current king. As long you don't break out of that fruitless paradox of wanting money, you can never overthrow the king but be chained forever. The king too, tries to prevent revolt by giving everyone a relative sense of abundance and wealth.

Dio Brando: Humans live hoping to conquer their anxieties and fears, and attain peace of mind. Seeking fame, controlling others, and acquiring wealth are all done to achieve peace of mind. Marriage and friendship are also pursued as means of attaining peace of mind. When humans say they wish to help others, or that a thing is done for love or justice... It's all merely to give themselves peace of mind. To achieve peace of mind is the goal of all mankind.

A small few gritted their teeth, believing in a bright new future for mankind... and embarked upon this new infinite ocean – Space. People pointed their fingers and laughed, calling them outlaws chasing empty dreams. This is the story of such a time.

Not knowing what it is that drives them they keep their bodies merely to satisfy the desires of the flesh. They're worthless, don't you think? That's all mankind is.
