There are more that I like, but never bothered to write down or memorize.

To be forgotten is worser then death- Freya..

I’ll think of more later.

I loved " Someday I will be Queen, but I will always be Myself"

and

" to be forgotten, is worse then death" ( Thanks Solaris =) )

"watching the sunset from the cap, Virgo whispered "my only wish is to be with you" – The Virgo Stellazio

World very simple place. World only have two things: Things you can eat and things you no can eat. – Quina, obviously ;p

Warning – possible spoilers ahead.

"Ooo.. soft." Zidane, after ‘accidentally’ encountering Garnet’s backside on the Cargo Ship.

"You… YOU SCUM!!!" Black Waltz no 3, after defeating it for the first time.

"Hey big boy! Turn around! Damn you’re ugly!!" Zidane, when encountering the Zaghnol during Lindblum’s Festival of the Hunt.

"I once single-handedly killed over a hundred knights. To me, you two are nothing more than insects." Beatrix, taunting Freya and a Burmecian soldier in Burmecia.

"Hey, I’m not the idiot with the loud voice and the dirty, rusty armour!" Zidane, responding to Steiner’s constant ridicule.

"’Peace, is but a shadow of death. Desperate to forget it’s painful past. Though we hope for promising years, after shedding a thousand tears, yesterday’s sorrow constantly nears. And while the moon still shines blue, by dawn, it will turn to scarlet hue.’ What an auspicious day for Alexandria. Garnet’s ascension to the throne has brought hope and peace to this kingdom. The people are overjoyed; they believe a promising future is ahead of them. But the celebration isn’t over yet! It is time to really light things up! Your former master is here Bahamut! Play a requiem for her and all of Alexandria!!" Kuja in fine form, unleashing chaos upon Alexandria.

‘Big.. frog.. it talked?.. I wonder if I eat it?" Quina, turning his/her culinary sights towards the unfortunate Cid (who is still a frog.)

"So, you think a given name has meaning? Boy, you have been bewitched by the light of the blue moon. You know nothing, and that is all." Garland, ominously greeting Zidane at the entrance to Terra.

"What a junky piece of armour! Who’d buy this crap?" Zidane, passing judgement over a suit of armour that Steiner had earlier been admiring.

"I can’t believe you bet Deathguise. Well, no matter, my time is almost up. Time to die everyone!!!" Kuja, well and truely losing all grip on sanity.

"After you guys beat me, I had nothing left; nothing more to lose. Then… I finally.. realised, what it means to live…… I guess I was.. too late…" Kuja, repenting his actions with his last dying breath.

But my favourite:

"How did you survive?" Garnet
"I didn’t have a choice. I had to live. I wanted to come home to you. So,… I sang your song." Zidane
"Our song." Garnet. The final lines in the game, Absolutely beautiful

most people seem to like freya’s. except for quina’s and dagger’s, all of their quotes are nice, depending on how i feel at the time.

Arrogance-The only dependable thing about the future is uncertainty.
Solitude-I don’t wanna be alone anymore

there all meaningful in their own way, but the one i find myself repeating the most is
Virtue-You don’t need a reason to help people

my favourite is

sorrow:how do u prove that u exist?…maybe we dont exist!

shortly followed by when u beat baku 4 the second time zidane ses he saves his punchs til the last…thats cool!

Eiko-"Oh yeah Smarty-Pants? Don’t forget you were the one who lost to Zidane!"
Garnet(her screen quote)-"Someday I will be queen, but I will always be myself!"

In Lindblum i’m not sure when? but there’s an old woman that asks words to the effect of "do you like the game so far?" you get options "Yes" and "No" I forget what "yes" gives you but with "no" she says words to the effect of "Well you should take the game back to the store and buy one you like"

RALLY HO :D:D

Zidane: "Ohh soft"

Hehehe I was laughing so hard at that part.

I Liked Freya’s Quote, Garnet’s Quote, And Vivi’s Quote.

" Oooh, Soft! " — Zidane, Who Else?

" Alrighty. " — Garnet

" Don’t Forget, Your The One Who Lost To Zidane! " — Eiko

" Mother, Zidane … No, I Can’t Depend On Them Anymore. " — Garnet

That’s All For Now!

i loved the "rally-ho" the dwarves did 😛

World very simple place. World only have two things: Things you can eat and things you no can eat. – Quina, obviously ;p

Lol! I totally <3 this line too ^_^ Quina’s funny

That moogle you free from the ice in that cold place "ah you bastards that’s hot" who’d expect moogles to say that?

"Ohhhhh soft" You know who it’s from.

"Ohhhhh soft" You know who it’s from.

Hehe, Funniest Line Of The Game =D

I Also Like The Line Kuja Says In Alexandria, On Disk 3, It’s Very Long … It’s Start’s Out As, "Peace Is But A Shadow Of Death", And Goes On From There.

"Ohhhhh soft" You know who it’s from.

That’s my favorite quote from the whole game.

"There’s no difference between them and me. We’re all just blindly
following orders. My heart and my will mean nothing…"-Beatrix

"To be forgotten is worse than death."-Freija

"Having sworn fealty, must I spend my life in servitude?"-Steiner

"How do you prove that you exist … ? Maybe we don’t exist …"-Vivi

"You don’t need a reason to help people."-Zidane

Quina: "Ah, Zidane. You want go with me!"
Zidane: "Well… I sort of got stuck with the leftovers…"
Quina: "You no have to explain! I so happy."
Zidane:" Huh?"
Quina: "There old saying in my tribe… Leftovers good!"

"We live not to forget our past, but to learn from it!"-Freija

Zidane: Gee, all s/he ever thinks about is food.
Dagger: Well, all you ever think about is girls.
Zidane: Uh, that’s right! My mind is filled with thoughts of… you!
(Maybe I’m trying too hard…)

"Their minds are not hollow. I think that their minds
are just out to lunch for a little awhile…"-Vivi

"I speak with passion, from the heart! That’s what matters most!"-Laguna Loire………(heehee)

I also love the dialoque between Beatrix and Steiner when they find the letter actually meant for Zidane. I haven’t memorized it so I’m not quite sure the exact words. But that is def. one of my favorite parts of the game.

I love the conversation Garnet and Zidane have in the boat at Madain Sari (I was sitting there saying ‘awwwww’ when I watched it. Recieving very odd looks) and I like the story Zidane tells Garnet in Black Mage village (you know, the one about himself?).

slight spoiler if you haven’t tried this
while still on the prima vista choose Brahne a bunch of times. ruby comes through the door and says something like, "Zidane, you are more stubborn than a mule."
and i also agree that zidane’s quote (you don’t need a reason to help people) is one of the best.

I like:
"First we kidnap the princess then we kill her. We’ll hang for sure."

a few of my favorites are the conversation between vivi and zidane at madain sari (at night) and when zidane ‘touches’ dagger on the ship at dali.

I like "your just jealolus im gonna get myself a sweetie"

Kivan

The road remains open while your dreams are alive. Only fear can block the way.

– Sir Fratley, Final Fantasy IX –

I THINK it’s by Sir Fratley. It’s actually a description on one of the Key Items, I can’t remember which one. But I really like it.

Of course, the classic "Ouuu, soft!" by Zidane.

And there was one with Cinna and Marcus (near the beginning of disc 2 when Garnet and Steiner were heading back to Alexandria) that went somewhere along the lines of:

"He got scolded!"
"How embarassing!"

And there was the line that Zidane said when you visit one of the gates near the beginning of the game. He starts flirting with the girl behind the gate that sells potions. Something about "sexy, husky voice." O_0

"No squall nor cloud shall hinder us!"

"Rat-face" LOL!

*spoiler* this ones towards the end
Pluto Knight (i don’t remember which one): we all know that you came along because you were worried sick about him
Beatrix: Excuse me? did you say something?

over to the invincible

Steiner: The Red Rose? Could it be Beatrix?
Zidane: That’s some woman you fell in love with
Steiner: You’re one to talk!
Dagger: *puts her hands on her hips* (to steiner) and just what do you mean by that?

one of the best scenes…

^^^ yeah that’s the best in game, that scene made me laugh plus those are my favorite characters in the whole game.

Steiner: The Red Rose? Could it be Beatrix?
Zidane: That’s some woman you fell in love with
Steiner: You’re one to talk!
Dagger: *puts her hands on her hips* (to steiner) and just what do you mean by that?

one of the best scenes…

Yes I remembered that too. And liked it.

Have to be: "Ooh, soft!"

Amarant: ‘He who hesitates is lost’. You’d best remember that.

Zidane: Well, I prefer ‘My way or the highway’.

Amarant: Whatever. Like you actually have a plan.

Eiko: Oh yeah, smarty-pants!? Don’t forget you’re the one that lost to
Zidane.

Amarant: Shut up, brat.

the infamous

"have I seen you before?"

"no, i dont think so"

"maybe your right, id never let someone as cute as you get away"

zidane and daggers first words to eachother

"I HATE YOU KUJA!!"

"Tis foolishness, if all were so easy, why none would suffer in this world."

Despair….To be forgotten is worse than death-Freya
Solitude…I don’t wanna be alone anymore-Eiko

They went something like that…..*shrugs*

I found another one i really like!

"Not knowing is half the fun!" -Zidane
"If you ever need a shoulder to cry on, mines available!" -Zidane

mine is gonna have to be "ooohhhh soft"-Zidane, plus what the message says under his name if you let the game just run. It says you don’t need a reason to help people. That’s true.

Oh, why not revive this, here we go:

Dagger: Yeah, thanks. What about you, Zidane? What do you do when you need to cry?
Zidane: Oh, I get real clingy when I’m sad!
Dagger: Cut it out!
Zidane: Hey, I was serious.

Kuja: So…an eruption of anger against one’s surroundings induces a complete Trance! It’s not the will to live, nor is it the desire to protect another!
Zidane: Man, you’re really goin’ off! Hello!?

How dare you Agent! What about your sig quote!? 🙂

*Revies thread with Agent

To keep doing what you set your heart on… It’s a very hard thing to do. We were all so courageous… ~FFIX~

Just beat the game again today.

How dare you Agent! What about your sig quote!?
What about it? It’s already there — no need to post it again. 😀

(quina and viv get married in conde peite)
Quina: I so happy
Vivi: m-me t-too
Quina edges towards Vivi. Vivi backs away.

Kuja: That’s no way to greet your brother
Zidane: You’re no brother of mine

peace is but a shadow of death… (and so on and so on, you know the text)

Eiko: " He called me a Brat and a Loudmouth"
Amarant:"He’s Right"

RALLY HO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

POSSIBLE SPOILERS AHEAD..

Having just listened to Pandemonium, The Castle Frozen in Time on the FFIX OST CD album, it reminded me of another classic quote:

"So, this is Garland’s haunted mansion? Talk about your bad taste in interior decorating. I’ve got a reeaally bad feeling about this. Alright, time to show this tyrant a thing or two." Zidane, upon entering Pandemonium for the first time.

Good stuff…

Along the same lines:

Girl: He went on his own to see Garland.
Eiko: Garland!? Oooo, THAT’s a sinister name! But Zidane wouldn’t just leave us hanging!

And also these:

Quina: Your bait no so good.
Eiko: Pale… White hair… Strange clothes… Zidane told me about you! You’re Kuja!
Quina: Zidane look for man named Kuja. I called Quina.
Eiko: …Oh! You chased Mog on the Conde Petie Mountain Path! I’m Eiko! (Mog, don’t ever come out while s/he’s around.)

Eiko: He looks pretty smart! Hey, you look like the bookish type!
Tot: Ha ha ha… What gives you that impression?
Eiko: You really want me to explain?
Tot: Oh, yes. I’m very curious.
Eiko: Where should I start…? First, your beard! Second, your nerdy hat! Third, your thick eyeglasses! All signs of a nerdy philosopher!
Tot: Ha ha… You don’t hold back, do you?

Freya: Oh, it’s you, Amarant! What are you doing? Looking at the lake?"
Amarant: I thought you’d be the quiet type…
Freya: Sorry. Maybe I’ve changed. It’s probably his influence.
Amarant: Zidane, huh…?

Four-armed Man: H-Hello, little girl…
Eiko: Oh, you’re the one who was being pushed around by Amarant.
Four-armed Man: Ha ha ha… D-Don’t be silly!
Eiko: So? What can I do for you, Mr. Wimpy?

– ATE: Give Me My Money –

Baku: AAH…ACHOOO!!!
Grandma Pickle: Well, if it isn’t Baku.
Baku: Grandma, good to see you’re still alive.
Grandma Pickle: Hey, I stand in front of these smelly pickles everyday. It’ll take a lot more than that to end my life.
Baku:Gwahaha! You’ll live to be a hundred.
Grandma Pickle: Oh yeah. I’ve been meaning to talk to you.
Baku: What is it?
Grandma Pickle: One of your boys, Zidane, told me to collect the money he owes me from you. His friend ate one of my pickles without paying.
Baku: WHAT!? Why do I gotta pay!?
Grandma Pickle: He said you’d take care of it. That’ll be 100 Gil.
Baku: I’m gonna wring his neck!

Hilda: …Can your words be trusted?
Regent Cid: I don’t’ lie! <Ribbit!> I swear on my father’s name!
Hilda: Alright. I’ll turn you back. But it’s going to be much worse if you ever cheat on me again!
Regent Cid: I…I understand! Now turn me back!
Hilda: Maybe I’ll turn you into a hedgehog pie.
Regent Cid: Erk… P-Please, no! <Ribbit!> Now turn me back!

Dagger: Is this…a garnet?
Zidane: That’s right… Isn’t it pretty?
Dagger: It’s beautiful…
Zidane: That gem used to be just another ordinary stone… The stone made a wish… ‘I want to shine!’ The stone traveled from person to person, in keeping with its wish… And now, it’s shining in your hand, Dagger. If you’re willing to make an effort… You’ll shine, too, someday! The day will come when Alexandria needs you! There’s no rush. The important thing is to have the desire.

Positive Thinking
Learning Through Hardship
Makin’ Crazy Money! V

Zidane: The mayor’s books, huh? I wonder what he’s up to these days.

Edit — And what the heck, these also:

Dagger: Zidane…
Zidane: It’s okay. Keep singing. ‘Cause it’s our song, right? I’m surprised you found this place. You got the talent to be a bandit! How ’bout you and me team up? We’ll call ourselves ‘The Betrothed.’
Dagger: My talent’s up to snuff, but that name isn’t.
Zidane: Hehehe. You’re really something these days.

Zidane: You say some strange things. The guys outside told me that you hadn’t come out yet. That’s why I came here looking for you.
Amarant: We don’t have anything to do with each other anymore… You don’t have anything to gain from this. Or do you? I don’t understand you. I don’t understand the way you think…
Zidane: Who cares about what I have to gain? You need help right now.
Amarant: You don’t care…? You’re willing to put yourself at risk to save me?
Zidane: Come on. We’ve helped each other many times since we joined forces. You’re a part of the team. That’s all that matters. I don’t know why I’m doing this, but I can’t just walk away. It goes against my nature.
Amarant: And that’s what being a part of the team means…?

Zidane: Okay… When we get closer to the volcano, you two head for the shrine’s entrance.
Amarant: …Why do I have to go with her?
Zidane: Oh, sorry. Did you wanna go with Eiko?
Amarant: ……

My favorite quote is when Kuja taunts you right before the Deathguise battle:

"Why should you exist in a world without me? That wouldn’t be fair."

Zidane: Mmmm, soft…

"Kweh."
"K-KWEH!!!"

" ‘Tis foolishness! If all were so easy, why, none would suffer in this world’ "~Steiner, quoting something from Lord Avon’s play ‘I Want to be Your Canary’

"Cherish this moment, for happiness is elisuve." ~Warning on the Bell

"Kupo!"

For the Star Wars fan in all of us…

Necron: Fear leads to anger… Anger leads to hate… Hate leads to suffering…

Necron: Fear leads to anger… Anger leads to hate… Hate leads to suffering…

…and path to dark side, that is! *snicker*

Apart from the usual Zidane/Garnet lines, I like Baku. Something like…

"That’s right! We’re going to kidnap that fat-ass, butt-ugly Queen Brahne…"

Steiner’s melodrama over Blank’s medicine in the theater ship’s closet is classic, as well.

Zidane: Mmmm, soft…

Ditto, although i thought it was "Ooooh, soft.." sexpot

At the start, when Zidane finally gets Garnet into the ship and Cinna enters the room:
G:Ahhh.
Z: Dont worry princess he is my friend Cinna.
G.Oh.
Z:Well with a face like that i would be pretty shocked too.
C:Oh man that hurts, i wash up every morning you know.

:P:P:P

(Cinna): ……
Cinna: I… I missed it again…
Cinna: How many times have I missed it? It’s morning now…
Cinna: But it isn’t my fault! It’s the South Gate Bundt Cake!
Cinna: It’s so delicious… I just can’t stop!
Cinna: When will the next car to Lindblum arrive…?

Hiss.

Cinna: That sound… That’s a car coming back from Alexandria.
Cinna: I’m gonna wait right here this time!
(Voice): What the heck are ya doin’!?
Cinna: I’m waiting for a cable car.
(Voice): So this is where you were wastin’ time!!!
Cinna: I wasn’t wasting time. I was eating South Gate Bundt Cake…
Cinna: Why are you talking to…
It’s Baku.
(Cinna): ME!?
Baku: I knew somethin’ was up, ’cause Marcus wouldn’t give me a straight answer.
Baku: So this is where you were. Ignorin’ your boss’s orders and eatin’ South Gate Bundt Cake…
Cinna: F-Forgive me! I didn’t mean to slack off.
Baku: It’s punishment time!
(Cinna): ME!?
Baku: Take my Super Tornado Tantalus Punch!!!
Cinna: P-Please, not that… Please…

He runs.

(Cinna): NOOOOOO!!!
Baku: Take it like a man!
He chases him into the rest area.
(Cinna): ME!?

"Thud."

(Voice): Graaaaaagh!!!
(Voice): NOOOOOO!!!

Baku: That guy from Treno gave me this item. Or was it a horn? I cant remember, hahahahaahaha

Also:
Cinna (after the ship crashes into evil forest) : Oh my god. I lost it. I lost the my Garnet doll. Fire would have pobably burned it. How am i going to sleep on nights.

While Zidane divides the party to teams of 2 to get into the shrines.

Zidane:Garnet you go with Eiko, Freya u go with Amarant. Ill have Vivi babysitting Steiner. And ill have to go with Quina.
Amarant:Why do i have to go with her?
Zidane:Oh im sorry. You prefer Eiko?

🙂

*Shrugs*

( = Steiner shrugging right before he takes the purple medicine. ^^ )

"Do you like kupo nuts?" – Moguta
"Yes." – Zidane
"I like you." – Moguta

"Don’t you think the guardettes look arousing in their armor?" – Fishman to Vivi, at the beginning of the game (if you talk to him while he’s standing and watching the guards at the front gate of Alexandria)

And I, too, quite enjoyed Zidane’s "oooh, soft!" comment. 😀

oooh soft =3
*Zidane*

My favorite quote in whole game!

I laugth so hard! =D

Try calling the moogle about 70 times and see what he says!! That one never gets old!

I like all of the ones that come up on the starting screen.
Especially Vivi’s. Vivi rules.
