"Naruto" is a Japanese manga series that follows the main character with the same name as he trains to become a ninja. Throughout the anime series, Naruto and other characters develop significantly as they face a myriad of challenges.

Naruto also works hard to protect his family from any enemy who would try to harm them, making him a lovable hero. His character development sees him becoming a voice of reason in the series, which is always delightful to watch. Perhaps most significant is that Naruto is a relatable hero.

This is why the next 78 quotes from the series would be a perfect read for anyone attempting to develop themselves further.
