The movie ends with a chilling line from Andrew/Teddy while sitting on the steps: For large offsets or variable drift, use subtitle

"Which would be worse: To live as a monster, or to die as a good man?"

This line implies that Andrew has actually regained his sanity. He knows he is Andrew Laeddis and that he killed his wife. However, he cannot live with that truth. He chooses to pretend he is still delusional so that the doctors will lobotomize him, effectively "dying" as the good man (Teddy) rather than living as the monster (Andrew).
