Ghost in the Shell

"We have been subordinate to our limitations until now. The time has come to cast aside these bonds and to elevate our consciousness to a higher plane. It is time to become a part of all things."

"As a sentient lifeform, I hereby demand political asylum."

"If a technological feat is possible, man will do it. Almost as if it's wired into the core of our being."

"Any way you look at it, all the information that a person accumulates in a lifetime is just a drop in the bucket."

"I guess, once you start doubting, there's no end to it."

"When I was a child, my speech, feelings, and thinking were all those of a child. Now that I am a man, I have no more use for childish ways."

"There's nothing sadder than a puppet without a ghost, especially the kind with red blood running through them."

"I refer to myself as an intelligent life form because I am sentient and I am able to recognize my own existence, but in my present state I am still incomplete. I lack the most basic processes inherent in all living organisms: reproducing and dying."
