Mutsuo Kayama, the secretary:
What could be so frightening about that idiot?

Kaoru:
I don't want to talk about it. I promised you I'd keep an eye on him and tell you what he was doing. But it was too...

Ayako:
Was it that awful?

Kaoru:
All I know, is that I'll remember what a good man he was.

Ayako:
If only we could all love as he did... without hatred. What a fool I've been. *I* was the idiot.

Ayako:
Do you have any idea what sort of person Mr. Kameda is?

Taeko Nasu:
I certainly do. I daresay I know far better than you.

Ayako:
That's a lie! You couldn't possibly know.

Taeko Nasu:
Why not?

Ayako:
Why not? Because you only ever think of yourself. Drunk on your own misery, you don't see the grief you cause in others.
