I was just bored and got to wondering: there are a lot of great lines in SoA and ToB, which 5 do people here like the most?
For me, it's (starting with my favorite of all time):

1)"Imoen, you remind me of a chipmonk with a sugar high and a death wish." (Valygar, ToB)

2)"Minsc, that tatoo on your head. Does it have some sort of tribal significance, or did some nursery school fingerpainting class assault you with the blue pastels?" (Viconia, SoA)

3)"Lady Edwina, may I loosen the seams on your robe? I am quite handy with a needle, and you do have a bit more...bulk in the upper chest area!" (Yoshimo, SoA)

4)"You look like a duck, and quack like a duck, but brother, you ain't a duck." (Cernd, SoA)

5)"Chauvanist pig! (Wait, what am I saying?!) I mean to say...IDIOT!!!" (Edwin(a), SoA)

"Look Boo, squirells! I saw them Boo, I know I saw them! Quick, throw nuts!" Minsc

"Are you really a pirate? I don't see any parrot sitting on you shoulder" Minsc again, to the pirate-lord.

Jan's tale about the gnome who fell in love with a dwarven girl who was alergic to turnips. The whole tale [img]smile.gif[/img]

Right at the beginning of the game:

Imoen: just like old times - well except for the torture and stuff

+

Minsc: ( while hiding) NONE SHALL SEE ME - though my battlecry may give me away.

+

Jan: practically any of his tales

Yea, there's tons of good quotes, not all funny though. Here's some I like.

"I cannot be caged. I cannot be controlled. Understand this as you die, ever pathetic, ever fools." - Irenicus in end of Ch. 2 cinema

Mugger: "Hey... you! Give me your money NOW or you're going to regret it... comprehend, yes?
Me: I comprehend that you're trying to ply your trade on the wrong person... and you're about to be the one regretting it.
(And he DID regret it, muahahahaha!! ... Ahem.)

Also, in the Temple District, there's a Shadow Thief with a cool poem about the guild wars that has a line like this:
"Step in shadow you are prey, pray you live to see the day."
It goes on much longer though.

I just Love when any Gnoll gnarls "Die... Scum" That has just got the coolest voice

Silence! Allow the fool to make his judgement.
- Irenicus in the beginning of chapter 2

Murder,Death,Kill! Murder,Death,Kill! Ahahahahahaha!

hey,you know, 'long time ago..yeah, I was like a..a moonblade.

-Liarlcor

Boo needs his exercise, lest he bite us in hard to reach places!
-Minsc (and Boo!)

Boromir · 03-31-2002, 08:07 PM

I'd have to go for anything Minsc says at all in the course of the entire game - the man is a genius!

On an unfunny-but-still-rather-cool note, I'm a big fan of Yoshimo's 'All the World is blind to my passing..'

Well, this isn't exactly SoA, but in the first BG, you meet this hermit called Portobolwinder. You can say something like this "If i hear one more Crack about MY destiny, I'll take A BLUNT WEAPON THE SIZE OF ELMINSTER AND HIS HAT SO FAR DOWN THE CREVICE OF YOUR THROAT THAT NOT EVEN CREATURES FROM THE NINE HELLS WOULD COME NEAR IT WITH A 9INCH RUSTY HALBERD. Very funny.

The conversation between minsc and Desharik is priceless-

Minsk : Where is your peg?
Desharik : My...what?
Minsk : Your peg. A proper pirate has a peg, whether a leg, arm or...erm...some other expandable extremity!

Minsc is so cool!
