Dr. Ouelet: You're not invulnerable. I can repair your body, but I can't protect your mind.
Major: Why not? You can see all my thoughts, so you should be able to secure them.
Dr. Ouelet: Try and understand your importance, Mira. You're what everyone will become one day
Major: You don't know how alone that makes me feel.

Kuze: I became fascinated with you, reading your code while you were inside that Geisha. Like nothing I had felt before, and yet so familiar. We are the same.
Major: We’re not the same. You kill innocent people.
Kuze: Innocent, is that what you call them? I am as they made me. [...]
Kuze: [Removing a piece of Major's face and examining it] What a beauty you are. They have improved us so much, since they made me. They thought that we would be a part of their evolution, but they have created us to evolve alone. Beyond them.
Major: Evolution, that’s what you call—killing everyone who made you.
Kuze: You’re not listening to me.
Major: You’re a murderer.
Kuze: They tried to kill me first! It is self-defense. Defense of self!
Major: We’re not the same. You kill innocent people.
Kuze: Innocent, is that what you call them? I am as they made me. [...]

Major: [To a sex worker] You human?
Woman: Yeah. [They go upstairs]
Major: Can you take that off, so I can see your face? [Woman removes stickers on her face, and Major touches the woman's facial features]
Major: What does that feel like?
Woman: It feels… different. What are you?
Woman: Yeah. [They go upstairs]
Major: Can you take that off, so I can see your face? [Woman removes stickers on her face, and Major touches the woman's facial features]

Togusa: Kuze's wiped his memory and somehow installed a new reality.
Batou: At least he got to believe he had a kid. What's the difference, huh? Fantasy, reality. Dreams, memories. It's all the same. Just noise.
See Ghost in the Shell (1995): "Batou: That's all it is: information. Even a simulated experience or a dream; simultaneous reality and fantasy."

[End-scene voiceover] My mind is human. My body is manufactured. I am the first of my kind, but I won’t be the last. We cling to memories as if they define us, but what we do defines us. My ghost survived to remind the next of us that humanity is our virtue. I know who I am, and what I’m here to do.
