Favourite quotes : IV

» Sun Sep 19, 2010 7:52 pm

This is my first post here so I thought I'd start out with something good, just to get introduced to the forum a bit better.
I figured that everyone must have had one quote in Oblivion that they liked so why not share them with eachother.
Mine was always the Highwaymen "Your money or your life". Expecting someone in full Daedric armour and a fireball at their fingertips to hand over gold.

First off, Welcome to BGSF. ~~You have to be insane to actually come here..~~ Have a http://i479.photobucket.com/albums/rr151/thehobogod/fishystick.jpg! And some http://www.uesp.net/wiki/General:Fishy_Stick on them too!

Anyway, for my favorite quotes, hmm, let's see;

"There's a rumor that you're an idiot. Any truth to that?" - Owyn

"Dear brother, I don't spread rumors, I create them" - Lucien Lechance

"..By the way, would you happen to know what the fine for necrophilia is in Cyrodiil?" - Flaanu Hlaalu

Also;

Anything by Sheogorath.

Anything by Mankar Camoran.

Anything by Valen Dreth.

Anything by Ma'iq the Liar.

Anything by Lord Rugdumph.

and

Anything by Uriel Septim.

I know, a huge list, but I honestly like em all.

That shouldn't stop anyone else going into specifics though, and stating exact individual quotes from them.

*Accepts Fishy Stick, feeling somewhat honoured*
Many of those quotes are in my favourites list, but the Highwayman one is just funny to me, so cliché.
I think you'll eventually find I can have my somewhat insane moments too.
Ma'iq informed me of your apparent obsession with Fishy Sticks, after some UESP and Google I found out what it was, best sub-meme ever.
Sheogorath's quotes were quite simply; pure insanity of the highest quality.

"Ida Vlinorman likes jumping high places..." then in very matter of fact tone: "... that's because she's an idiot." - Imperial City rumor.

"I've scraqed things of the bottom of my boot that were smart than you!" - Modryn Oryen

"M'aiq wishes he had a stick made out of fishies to give to you. Sadly, he does not." - M'aiq the Liar

I think I'd have to suggest a quote that's only good for a High Elf, it went something like this, you'll probably know what I mean "Ugh High Elves, they act so high and mighty untill you leave them in a pool of their own blood" - Owyn

Fribble. Just fribble.

I love the Modryn quotes, he's a scream.

One I had today was by Dagail in the Leyawin Mage's Guild.
"The guild needs you, child. Perhaps it has always needed you; always been waiting for you."

It just touches me and it's better than some of the arrogant comments by others in the game.

"Dear brother, I do not spread rumors, I create them!"
Anything my Ma'iq
"Foul smelling ape!"
"Yes, the Gold Road does pass through Skingrad."

But what path can be avoided whose end is fixed by the almighty Gods?
- Uriel Septim

Fribble. Just fribble.

I always preferred him BEFORE I could understand him, after he just got boring.

I never got a fishy stick :sadvaultboy:

Anything from M' aiq the Liar

"*blank* for you, sweetroll for Fimmion. SA-WEEEET ROOLLLL."

I'm assuming fribble is in SI since I've never encountered himin Cyrodiil.

The first time my Altmer heard "Something on your mind, goldenrod?", I thought wow how does he know my nickname.

"..By the way, would you happen to know what the fine for necrophilia is in Cyrodiil?" - Flaanu Hlaalu,

this is the classic favourite of mine Holy Assassin...

I nearly wet myself with laughter when my Dunmer escorted her across cyrodill ( by command no mods ), and she kept summoning skeletons.

I always wondered what the heck that fishy stick business was all about. I always assumed it was something from Monty Python.

My fave quotes at the moment:

"BLOOD!!! i NEEED YOUR BLOOD!!!"

I also love it when mighty Imperial Guards yell "FOR THE EMPIRE!" while killing a mudcrab. Yea, like killing one mudcrab makes a difference to the fate of the Empire.

I'm assuming fribble is in SI since I've never encountered himin Cyrodiil.

Yeah... it's from a character named Bolwing in SI. That's one of his conversational lines.

Another of his is "Gal bursten it." He's got a bunch more, but they're even more bizarre and I can never remember them.

As long as I'm here-- some other favorites:

"Of course, there's no money in herding cheese."
"I hear Dagail knows a lot about mysticism. And sheep."
"Ahdarji won't drink the water, no. The Argonians SWIM in it."
"Poof! It's exactly like magic!"

random bandit "You move like a pregnant cow"

Owyn if you select match and your not equiped with the battle Raimant "What you what a match, your not even wearing your battle raimant, don't talk to me again until you put your raimant on you disrespectful maggot".

The Grey Fox "Capital"

Anything by Sheogorath

Ohh how many times I've heard this...

"You... I've seen you... Lets me see your face. You are the one from my dreams". - My good ol' buddy Uriel.
"Ta! Come visit again! Or I'll pluck out your eyes, ha ha ha!" - Sheogorath

By far the most annoying:
"Oh no. No no no no. No no no no no no no no! Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni. Ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni." - Runs-in-Circles from the SI (Surprised no on had mentioned it yet).

"Ah... you are from the Fighters Guild, I resume. Good show. I am Lord Rugdumph gro-Shurgak. Let us conversate on the Lady Rogbut. I fear that whilst out rock-picking, she was apprehensive. Stolen away! My suspension is that ogres have abjected her!"

"I am resident to encounter the minotaur. Its horny protuberants cause me great conflagrations."

- Lord Rugdumph gro-Shurgak

(I'd still like to see Lord Rugdumph and Bolwing on a presidential ticket...the campaign speeches would get better ratings than anything in history, I just know it.)

Welcome to The Raven! :icecream:

This question comes up occasionally. Let me dust off and paste in my unchanging response:

No trophies of my triumphs shall precede me. But I have lived well, and my ghost shall rest easy.

Thamriel of Tamriel: "The city? Here's the city. All around us. A thousand stones, a thousand souls. I hear them all. Sometimes. But not right now. They're all quiet. Did you frighten them away?"

I always feel so sad for her, because her voices are not talking to her.

The stablehands and Snak gra-Bura at Chestnut Handy Stables (Horse Armor installed). Horseburgers. Yum Yum. (burp!)

Bugak gro-Bol in Leyawiin. Money grubbing small business owners... sheesh... but his candor is refreshing (quoted directly from the game):
"Yeah. Buy a goddam book. It's a bookstore, ain't it? Don't just go peeking at them! Buy one! I'm Bugak gro-Bol, and I say you better buy a goddam book. And right away, dammit!"

anything from Mankar Camoran

anything from Pelinal Whitestrake

anything from Sheogorath

anything from the Prophet

anything from Umaril

anything from Uriel Septim VII

anything from Martin

anything from Haskill

Do quotes from written works count? If so, my signature contains one of my favorites. Another one of my favorites is from the end of Immortal Blood where it states something similar to(but may not be exact), "He did not land the first blow or the last."

Oh... this one... I think I suffered internal injuries from laughing so hard at it when it happened.

I was on the beach, at Lake Rumare... a place where the road is close to the beach.

There was a itty bitty Mudcrab nearby.

An Imperial Guard dismounted... charged towards the Mudcrab... and yelled something loud, lofty, awsome and noble-sounding... something like "How DARE you challenge the awesome power of the Empire!" and he chopped it into itty bitty crabmeats.

Hehehehe.
