Quotes 

• Otacon : Have you ever... loved someone?

  Solid Snake : That's what you came to ask?

  Otacon : No, I was wondering if even soldiers fall in love.

  Solid Snake : What are you trying to say?

  Otacon : I want to ask you. Do you think love can bloom even on a battlefield?

  Solid Snake : Yeah. I do. I think at any time, any place, people can fall in love with each other. But if you love someone, you have to be able to protect them.

• [about Wolf] 

  Otacon : Snake. What was she fighting for? What am I fighting for? What are you fighting for?

  Solid Snake : If we make it through this I'll tell you.

  Otacon : Okay. I'll be searching too.

• Otacon : The truth is... my grandfather was part of the Manhattan Project. He lived with the guilt for the rest of his life. And my father... he was born on August 6, 1945.

  Solid Snake : The day of the Hiroshima bomb. God's got a sense of humor, all right.

• Solid Snake : [Suspenseful music and sound effects play just like before the DARPA cheif and Baker's deaths. The music stops]  You're not in pain are you?

  Otacon : Huh?

  Solid Snake : [Pats Otacon on the back]  You feel okay? Nothin' bothering you?

  Otacon : What's wrong? Getting all friendly all of a sudden.

  Solid Snake : Oh, nothing. I'm glad you're okay.

  Otacon : You're strange...

  Solid Snake : I'm a little nervous. Everybody else I've saved suddenly dies.

  Otacon : You're bad luck.

• Otacon : [if Meryl dies]  Snake, people die. But death is not defeat, that's what Hemmingway said. I lost Wolf too, but that wasn't defeat. She and I will be together forever. We didn't lose anything.

• Otacon : What's with these guys? It's like one of my Japanese animes!

• Otacon : Life isn't all about loss, ya know.

• [about Wolf] 

  Otacon : I don't know why, but she's nice to me.

  Solid Snake : Sounds like Stockholm Syndrome to me.

• Otacon : You're incredible... like a movie hero or something.

  Solid Snake : No... you're wrong. In the movies, the hero always saves the girl...

• Otacon : [codec call]  Snake, there's something I forgot to tell you before.

  Solid Snake : What?

  Otacon : There were five stealth camouflage prototypes in my lab.

  Solid Snake : Yeah, so?

  Otacon : If you take out the one I'm wearing that leaves four.

  Solid Snake : Hey this isn't first grade math class!

  Otacon : I thought I'd get one for you. So I went back to the lab and...

  Solid Snake : Yeah?

  Otacon : The four suits were missing.

  Solid Snake : ?

  Otacon : Also, about the elevator I checked out. It's really strange. It's as if someone was intentionally holding it.

  Solid Snake : When you were riding on it, did the weight limit warning go off?

  Otacon : That's another thing that bothered me about it. The warning went off and I know I couldn't be over the limit.

  Solid Snake : How much do you weigh?

  Otacon : About 135. But that elevator had a weight limit of 650 pounds.

  Solid Snake : So it would take at least 5 people to go over that limit.

  Otacon : Watch out Snake! The guys who stole my stealth prototypes are in there with you!
