Itachi Quotes from the World of Anime

What is seen with the eyes is not always what is true in the heart. Enjoy these Itachi quotes.

The World of Anime has entertained many, but like in all things, there is a lesson behind the entertainment.

While the character Itachi may have seemed to be an open book, the truth was there was more to Itachi than what was first seen. He was wise and behind his action was the love of his family, particularly his little brother. 

While the Itachi quotes below are from anime, we can see ourselves in many of them. We may not always make the best choices, but we are often doing things with good intentions.

And when we judge before we know someone to be true or false, we lose the opportunity to really get to understand the true person.
