Neon Genesis Evangelion

Gendo:
I've waited so long for this moment to arrive. I will finally be with you again, Yui. When Shinji is near me, all I ever do is cause him pain. I thought it was better when I did nothing at all.

Yui:
Were you afraid of Shinji?

Gendo:
I didn't believe that anyone could love me. I never deserved to be loved.

Kaworu:
So, you were running away. And you rejected the others around you, so there was no chance that you would ever be hurt.

Yui:
And you were terrified by the invisible bonds that people form.

Rei:
You were afraid and so you closed off your heart.

[Gendo is being held by Eva Unit-1]

Gendo:
And so, this is my retribution. Forgive me, Shinji.
