Quotes 

• Aramaki : [in Japanese]  Don't send a rabbit to kill a fox.

• Aramaki : [in Japanese]  You are more than just a weapon. You have a soul... a ghost. When we see our uniqueness as a virtue, only then will we find peace.

• [last lines] 

  Major : [narrating]  My mind is human. My body is manufactured. I'm 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.

  Aramaki : [in Japanese]  Major. Engage targets... You're authorized.

• Aramaki : [in Japanese]  Saito, have you found Major? Is she safe?

  Saito : [in Japanese]  She will be.

  [shoots down Section 6 aircraft] 

• Cutter : Major is our most sophisticated weapon only if she's intact. And Dr. Ouelet informed me that you let her dive a corrupted geisha. You realize the supreme importance that Hanka represents to this government. Major is the future of my company. If you compromise her systems again, I will burn this section.

  Aramaki : [in Japanese]  Be careful who you threaten. I answer to the Prime Minister, not Hanka.

• Cutter : [spoilers] 

  [last lines] 

  Cutter : I Thought That It Might Be You

  Aramaki : [in Japanese]  It Is Unwise To Resist

  [Cutter pulls a gun and Aramaki guns him down] 

  Cutter : [staggering to his feet, his gun kicked out of reach] 

  [whispering] 

  Cutter : please

  Aramaki : [in Japanese] 

  [over the coms] 

  Aramaki : Major? I'm With Cutter Is There Anything You'd Like To Say To Him?

  Major : [icily]  Tell Him This Is Justice... It's What I Was Built For!

  Aramaki : [in Japanese] 

  [brief pause] 

  Aramaki : So... Do I Have Your Consent?

  Major : [coldly]  My Name Is Major... And I Give My Consent!

  [with a slight sneer Aramaki rapidly fires point blank, then silently watches Cutter fall back into a pool]
