Meryl : Oh no... nothing. So tell me, Snake. What's your
name? Your real name?
Snake : Name means nothing on the battlefield.
Meryl : How old are you?
Snake : Old enough to know what death looks like.
Meryl : Any family?
Snake : No, but I was raised by many people.
Meryl : Is there anyone you like?
Snake : I've never been interested in anyone else's life...
Meryl : So you are all alone. Just like Mantis said.
Snake : Other people just complicate my life. I don't like
to get involved.
Meryl : You're a sad, lonely man.
Snake : C'mon... let's go.

Mantis : And each mind that I peered into was stuffed with the
same single object of obsession. That selfish and
atavistic desire to pass on one's seed... it was
enough to make me sick. Every living thing on this
planet exists to mindlessly pass on their DNA.
We're designed that way. And that's why there is war.
But you... you are different... You're the same as
us. We have no past, no future. We live in the
moment. That's our only purpose. Humans weren't
designed to bring each other happiness. From the
moment we're thrown into this world, we're fated to
bring each other nothing but pain and misery. The
first person whose mind I dove into was my father's.
I saw nothing but disgust and hatred for me in his
heart. My mother died in childbirth... and he
despised me for it... I thought my father was going
to kill me.

Mantis : We are truly the same, you and I... The world is a
more interesting place with people like you in it...
I never agreed with the Boss's revolution. His dreams
of world conquest do not interest me. I just wanted
an excuse to kill as many people as I could.
Naomi : Genes exist to pass down our hopes and dreams for the
future through our children. Living is a link to the
future. That's how all life works. Loving each other,
teaching each other... that's how we can change the
world. I finally realized it. The true meaning of
life... Thank you, Snake.
