A quote from Cloud Atlas.

Archivist: On behalf of my Ministry and the future of Unanimity, I want to thank you for the final interview. Remember, this isn't an interrogation or trial. Your version of the truth is all that matters.

Sonmi-451: Truth is singular. Its "versions" are mistruths.


For those who haven't seen the movie or read the book (I highly recommend both), Sonmi-451 was a "fabricant"--a genetically manufactured clone whose job was to work at a fast food waitress without question to authority. After discovering the disturbing nature behind the creation, purpose, and ultimate fate of fabricants, she starts an uprising against the authorities until she is ultimately captured.
