Ishikawa quotes from Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

Ishikawa

The key to survival on the battlefield isn't courage or weapons. It's caution.

Motoko

Cover us! Snow and I will storm the building!

Batou

So, what am I? Her backup?

Ishikawa

Look on the bright side, pal: this means you've earned her trust now.

Ishikawa

In cases like this, it's always the ones whose backs are up against the wall that pull together and take action the quickest. The actions of our own citizens are an opposition to the government agencies at this point.

It's a mass trend toward individualism. No, it's more like a peace at any price movement growing within the population. Even though this is basically a declaration of war from the refugees.

Motoko

Batou, you and the others go on ahead and gather information on how extensively the refugees are armed. Ishikawa and I will dive the refugees' net and rendezvous with you after we've pinpointed Kuze's location.

Roger!

Motoko

We'll hack a refugees' brain. Kuze's cyberbrain seems to be accessible to them at any given time. We won't require any back up until we get close to his ghost line.

Ishikawa

Understood.

Motoko

Ishikawa, I want you to run a trace back from gate 5 on the net and try to find out what draws these people to him.

Ishikawa

I'm on it.

Tachikoma, inject maskarae I'll cross his ghost line using my corma file.

Ishikawa of Section 9 I take it. I came here to take that off your hands.

Ishikawa

Oh, you mean this?

That's right.

Ishikawa

Don't screw with us punk, Section 9 practically invented dirty tricks and information warfare.
