And I know that these aren't exactly anime quotes they're novel quotes from the book:

Death Note: Another Note: The Los Angeles BB Murder Cases:

Page 163: Section 7: Last Page

"A problem with no solution could only have one answer - that it could not be solved. But that answer conflicted with the fairness displayed in the first three murders. Which tied their hands. Unable to find something that wasn't there, L would have to continue searching for B - who no longer existed. The metaphor of the gradually decreasing Wara Ningyo established from the beginning that there would be only four victims, so the lack of further murders would not lead to the conclusion that the killer had passed away. L would be left chasing after the mirage of the deceased B. L would be forever followed by the mirage of the deceased B. L would spend the rest of his life trembling in fear of B's shadow.
L would lose.
B would win.
B was the top, and L was the bottom - L would grovel at B's feet.
The copy would surpass the original."


Page 11: Section 1: How To Read It

"So let us skip past all tedious descriptions of what Beyond Birthday thought, or how he went about killing his third victim, since I have no interest in that at all, and while we're at it, let's skip the second and first victims, make no effort to look back at the earlier murders, and adjust the clock's hands to the morning of the day after, the glittering moment when the century's greatest detective, L, first began to investigate the case. Oh, I almost forgot. In the event that anyone besides big-headed Near or the deluded murderer is reading these notes, then I should at least perform the basic courtesy of introducing myself, here at the end of the prologue. I am your narrator, you navigator, your storyteller. For anyone else but those two, my identity may be of no interest, but I am the old world's runner-up, the best dresser that died like a dog, Mihael Keehl. I once called myself Mello and was addressed by that name, but that was a long time ago.
Good memories and nightmares."

"L was the goal of everyone in Wammy's House.
Every one of us wanted to surpass him.
To step over him.
To step on him.
M did, N did, and B did.
M as a challenger, N as a successor.
B as a criminal."
