A quote by Ayu I'm looking for
 

I'm not sure if it was a lyric or an actual quote, but it was something along the lines of, "I was not born to live." I feel like there's more to the quote, but now I'm doubting myself and thinking that the quote I provided is the one and only line. :laugh

Any help is appreciated!

From Marionette, it seems.

Basically says: "We were not born to be something that we are not" or something like that.

^ Thanks for your help, but that wasn't it.

I wish there were more clues I could provide, but what I said in my first post is really all I can remember. :doh

Is it this, from A Song for XX?

That phrase only pops up in these songs, so it could've been a random translation. Oi, it's hard to find these sorts of things.

^ It is hard, as it could be from anywhere, but I really appreciate your help. :)

I want to say it was from some kind of interview or magazine. I think she was talking about how she wasn't born to live, but rather to fulfill something... I don't know. I know it's not the, "I myself am a dream," quote.

^^Huh??? I don't know... but I wish someone would post it soon!

Okay, time to look now that you've given me more information.

Whooo~

It's might be from TimeAsia interview.

^ yeah i was thinking of that

edit: lol didn't see the not, never mind then

it's looks very similar to Marionette, but it also maybe from some interview

o___o;

How about this?

"There are people who you influence you, and people who hurt you, and sometimes people whom you hurt. But in the end, if you don’t realize things on your own and have the desire to change it, then you’ll never change. Because I don’t want to be living just because I was born."

from Oricon interview about MY STORY

So..it's not the one on my sig?? Hmmm...

THAT WAS IT! *sigh of relief* Thank you very much, isura. ^^

And a big thank you to all who helped. ^^ I really appreciate it! ;)

LOL Haven't seen the "not". Sorry. xD

That was an INCREDIBLE find. Bravo!

I remember that interview vaguely but I didn't think that it was from Oricon Style. Good job!

Haha, you're welcome. : D I just love to read Ayu's interviews again and again... She's such a smart woman.

wow, that's a great quote. i love that quote now.

Great quote! I had forgotten about it too. :)
