Ghidorah, the Three-Headed Monster - Warning of Ghidorah's Destructive Power
Mas Selina Salno, Princess of Sergina:
Why does no one pay heed to my warning? The entire human race will perish from the Earth. When the monster Ghidorah passes, only flaming ruins are left...
Detective Shindo:
Ghidorah?
Mas Selina Salno, Princess of Sergina:
Centuries ago, the monster appeared in the skies of Mars. Within a month, the culture of Mars had been wiped out completely. The civilization on my planet had reached a stage of development which you people will not achieve for a long time. Centuries, at least. Today, because of the space monster, it is a dead world. Dead and uninhabited.
Dr. Tsukamoto:
It would be a bad situation if that creature came here to Earth.
Mas Selina Salno, Princess of Sergina:
It's worse, because he's arrived.

Selfish!

Rashomon - The Nature of Truth and Deception
Woodcutter:
It's a lie. It's all a lie. Tajômaru's story and the woman's.
Commoner:
It's human nature to lie. Most of the time we can't even be honest with ourselves.
Priest:
That may be. But it's because men are weak that they lie, even to themselves.
Commoner:
Not another sermon. I don't care if it's a lie, as long as it's entertaining. What story did the woman come up with?
Priest:
Well, it's completely different from Tajômaru's story. So different that her face didn't even show the fierceness he spoke of. She was so docile, she was almost pitiful.
