Karen B. Brennick Quotes in Fortress (1992)

Karen B. Brennick: What are you?

Prison Director Poe: I am enhanced.

Karen B. Brennick: You're not human. You're...

Prison Director Poe: A monster? A freak? The Mentel Corporation has transformed me into a more efficient human being. Once a month, I absorb amino acids, wasting neither food nor fuel. When my kind are in the majority, there will be no more world hunger, no overpopulation.

Karen B. Brennick: You don't sleep, you don't eat... You can't make love, can you?

Prison Director Poe: But I can love.

Karen B. Brennick: Are there others like you?

Prison Director Poe: Not many as advanced, but yes. I was one of Mentel's first babies. It was very special.

Karen B. Brennick: Oh my god, you're what they do with our babies?

Prison Director Poe: Of course.
