Kaworu Quotes
Shinji and Kaworu meet
The song is good
Huh?
Singing brings joy and revitalizes the human soul. I think that song is the highest achievement of the lilum culture. Don't you agree, Shinji Ikari?
How do you know my name?
Everyone knows your name. I don't mean to sound rude, but you're rather ignorant of your own position.
Oh, really? Who're you?
I am Kaworu, Kaworu Nagisa. I am like you, one of the selected children, the fifth child.
You're the fifth child? Um, Mr. Nagisa...
(laughs) Call me Kaworu, Mr. Ikari.
Mr. Ikari? Oh, no, you can call me Shinji.

Shinji and Kaworu get to know each other better
Hello. You weren't waiting here for me, were you?
No, well not really waiting anyway.
So what are you doing for the rest of the day?
Well, usually when tests are over, I'll just take a shower and go home. But, I, I don't really wanna go home these days.
The fact that you have a place to return, home, will lead you to happiness. That is a good fact.
You think so?
I want to talk with you some more, may I come with you? To the shower I mean, aren't you going to go to the shower?
Yeah.
Or do you mean no?
No, I don't mean no.

You are extremely afraid of any kind of initial contact aren't you? Are you that afraid of other people? I know that by keeping others at a distance you avoid the betrayal of their trust. But while you might not be hurt that way, you mustn't forget that you must endure the loneliness. Man can never completely erase this sadness because all men are fundamentally alone.
It's time.
Time to go?
Yeah, I have to go to bed.
With me?
No! I think you have your own room, that they gave you I mean.
Okay. You know, pain is something that man must endure in his heart. And since the heart fills pain so easily, some men believe that life is pain. You are delicate like glass, that is, your heart is.
It is?
Yes, this is worth earning my empathy.
Empathy?
I'm saying I love you.

I think that I should sleep on the floor.
No, I'm staying at your place, I'll be fine on the floor.
What did you want to say to me?
Huh?
You wanted to tell me something didn't you?
So much has happened...(Shinji babbles about the past for a bit)
Did you hate dealing with people?
More or less, however I really hated my father.(why am I telling all of this to Kaworu?)
I think that I may have been born just to meet you, Shinji Ikari.

Kaworu takes Unit 02 and...well, there are some problems
It is time, let us go Adam's dark shadow, servant of the lilum.
................................................................................................................................................
Shinji, you are late.
Unit 01 is descending via access route 2, it's about to make contact with the target.
You betrayed me, you betrayed the trust I placed in you, you betrayed me just like my father did!
Unit 01 has reached the 4th layer, it's about to confront the target.
There he is!
I have been waiting for you Shinji.
Kaworu!...Asuka, I'm sorry.
The Eva series was born form Adam, born form man's antithesis. And yet the lilum would utilize that which they hate most of all in order to survive. I do not understand.
Kaworu! Stop! Why is this happening?!
Your Evas and I are composed of the same matter. Born from Adam I can synchronize with it easily, as long as there is no dominant soul. And Unit 02's soul is hiding itself, thus Eva 02 is mine!...
You've got your own AT Field?
Yes, at least that is what you lilum call this thing. This is the light of my soul, a sacred territory in which no one may intrude. Aren't you lilum even aware yet that your so-called AT Field is merely that wall that encloses every mind that exists!
I don't understand what you're talking about!
(Some dialogue from other characters)
(This is mankind's fate. The thread of hope is spun with the flax of human soul.)
(Some more dialogue from other characters)
Kaworu! Don't do it! No don't do it!
(Dialogue...)
What's that!
Adam, that from which we came. Must one who was born from Adam return to Adam, even though it will destroy man? Wait! This isn't! Lilith! I see! I understand now! The lilum, Lilith!..... I thank you Shinji, I wanted you to take Unit 02 from me. Otherwise, with her, I might have survived much longer.
Kaworu, but why?
It is my destiny to live forever, though my survival will bring final destruction to the human race. However, it is possible for me to be killed, and whether I live or die makes no great difference. In truth, death may be the only true freedom there is.
Kaworu, I don't understand what you're talking about, Kaworu.
This is my wish. Please, destroy me. Otherwise, you will be destroyed. Only one life form may be chosen to evade destruction and seize the future. And you are not the existence which should die. You need the future, it is what you live for. Thank you, Shinji, my life was meaningful, because of you.....
