The Truth Surpasses Time after Time, Generation after Generation

Yahiko: Hey Kenshin, we won, right? We were the ones who were correct, right?

Kenshin: If you are saying that the victor is correct, we'd be the same as Makoto Shishio, that we would. We fought for what we believe is right, and defeated Shishio. However, Shishio himself was also trying to prove that he was the one who was correct. He acted with faith in his own beliefs, that he did. In that aspect, he is no different from us.

If I were to explain it all, perhaps the age chose our side. What is correct will be determined by the people of the next generation after they learn our history, that it will.

But the idea of the survival of the fittest where the strong live and the weak die, is definitely mistaken. Definitely.
