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.
