Exact quote from whom? And where was it said?
Also, if the quote is 'anything with a brain', but the formal rule is 'anything with a spirit', then that is ambiguous and I would go with the formal rule rather than a quote from anyone no matter where it is posted (except for the official errata page).
I think it was from a stream, and I think this is a context issue where we're getting hung up on the literal meaning rather than conversational intent. I don't think "anything with a brain" was meant to refer to creatures that possess physical brains, but rather creatures that can think. It was describing sentience rather than a physical feature.
If you want a "words in the book" interpretation, I think you're right to think it will be "Anything with a soul." In reality, what will happen is that constructs and the like will simply have 'Spirit' added to their list of immunities alongside 'Mental' and 'Poison'.
