A: "When all this is over, what will you do?"
B: "... I think I'll make a scrapbook. Or, a travel guide? A book of all the beautiful things that make the struggle worthwhile, even if I didn't find them until afterward."
Maybe it's Kaworu asking (facetiously, I presume) and Shinji giving a sincere answer.
