"On the other side of that door is X-Kira. My guess is, in roughly forty seconds, he'll look inside to see if we're dead. That's when we'll restrain him and seize the notebook. Whoever's name is not written down MUST be Kira." | "Well, Near, looks like I win."

"Just watch me, L. I'll solve equations with my right hand and write names with my left. I'll take a potato chip... and eat it!" | "It seems like you're pretty skilled with your hands. I bet you're pretty popular with the girls, aren't you?" | "Skill has nothing to do with it. It's your looks that count. I'm guessing you're not that popular, are you?" | "Huh?"

"Near." | "Light Yagami." | "I know exactly what your plan is, and I'm going to win."

"Dear Misa, by the time you read this letter, you should have remembered everything." | "Oh, a letter from Light." | "Do you remember my friend at To-ho University? He went by the name Hideki Ryuga. I want you to write his real name in the notebook and kill him, then burn this letter right away. Take a number of pages from the notebook and re-bury it where you found it. The next time that we see each other, casually touch me with a piece of the notebook. If you do this for me, I promise I will love you for the rest of my life."

"Look, Light, please listen to what I'm about to say. I'd like you to thoroughly analyze my current theory. This could determine the way in which we end up catching Kira. Light Yagami USED to be Kira. Kira's power has somehow passed onto another person. Light Yagami now has no memory of ever BEING Kira. I need your analysis based on these assumptions. Do you think you can do that for me?"

"Good or evil, it's not our call. All we have to think about is catching him. If Kira gets caught, then that makes him evil, but if he wins and rules the world, then I guess he's justice." | "Mr. President, I am very grateful that you and your country have sympathized with me, but I'm afraid even that much is not enough. The SPK is still trying to catch me despite your recent announcement. I want you to stop them immediately and formally disband them. At the same time, I want you to use the American police, the CIA, the FBI and all other law enforcement organizations at your disposal to find out where the SPK members are currently hiding. As soon as you've found their base of operations, I want you to forward that information to a third party. I will give you this contact shortly. Mr. President, whether you live a long life or not is up to you. Don't forget that."

"If they want L's identity, that means they probably want to kill him." | "That's not good. We're short-handed, and we need to pay attention to Coil too, huh?" | "It's all right. The detective known as Eraldo Coil is me. Three of the world's greatest detectives, L, Coil, Deneuve... are all me. Those who try to find me usually fall for this. I'll give you this strawberry if you keep it a secret."
