wow! you sure are dedicated.
I confess,I took notes when I was reading that manga. It's a good introduction to ethics and takayanagi sensei is a good teacher. It gives a lot of matter for thought.
I like his intro, when he said:" I want to teach the importance of ethics...And that no matter how well you know it, it won't mean you'll live a good life.

I didn't take notes, so it took me a while to find them. I also considered attaching link to the books from which they were mentioned phew I'm too lazy for that ^~^
These quotes are great but the way takayanagi explains them using relatable example is the best quality any teacher could ask for! and one could actually learn from his words.
Well, most of the things takayanagi say can also be considered as quotes like "never forget to question the reasoning behind our beliefs."
