"If we all reacted the same way, we'd be predictable, and there's always more than one way to view a situation. What's true for the group is also true for the individual. It's simple: overspecialize, and you breed in weakness. It's slow death."

More Ghost in the Shell Quotes
"It's not like I had aspirations to be a hero or anything. However, I'm positive we followed a code of justice that all of us believed in without condition or compromise."
— Togusa · Ghost in the Shell
"Just like wine, some human relationships need time to mature."
— Daisuke Aramaki · Ghost in the Shell
"Life perpetuates itself through diversity, and this includes the ability to sacrifice itself when necessary. Cells repeat the process of degeneration and regeneration until one day they die, obliterating an entire set of memory and information. Only genes remain. Why continually repeat this cycle? Simply to survive by avoiding the weaknesses of an unchanging system."
— Puppet Master · Ghost in the Shell
"I feel confined, only free to expand myself within boundaries."
— Motoko Kusanagi · Ghost in the Shell
"There are countless ingredients that make up the human body and mind, like all the components that make up me as an individual with my own personality. Sure, I have a face and voice to distinguish myself from others, but my thoughts and memories are unique only to me, and I carry a sense of my own destiny. Each of those things are just a small part of it. I collect information to use in my own way. All of that blends to create a mixture that forms me and gives rise to my conscience."
— Motoko Kusanagi · Ghost in the Shell
"Who can gaze into the mirror without becoming evil? The mirror does not reflect evil, but creates it."
— Motoko Kusanagi · Ghost in the Shell
