"War. War never changes.
The Romans waged war to gather slaves and wealth.
Spain built an empire from its lust for gold and territory.
Hitler shaped a battered Germany into an economic superpower.
But war never changes.
In the 21st century, war was still waged over the resources that could be acquired.
Only this time, the spoils of war were also its weapons.
Petroleum and uranium.

"I can tell you and I are going to get along just like fire hoses. When we get turned on, there's bound to be flames"
- Jeanette from Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
"Love? Love is for the Living"
- Manny from Grim Fandango
"Oh, I get it. Let's play with the old man's head, is it? He's half-senile, he'll forget I said anything! Wait uh, what was this about, anyway?"
- Jolee Bindo from Knights of the Old Republic
"Looks like God didn't make it"
- Heather from Silent Hill 3 (anyone who played this games should know why this quote is cool)
Too many to list or remember from, so pretty much everything said in Planescape Torment
One of my favorite quotes is in my sig (from teh game Deus Ex)... that game had so many deep storyline concepts, it was better than an intelligently-written book :D
Heres another one by Morpheus:
""The unplanned organism is a question asked by Nature and answered by Death. You are another kind of question, with another kind of answer."
That quote is refeering to you in teh game, as your character was genetically enginneered.
Here is one from the Helios AI from the game:
""I should regulate human affairs precisely because I lack all ambition, whereas human beings are prey to it. Their history is a succession of inane squabbles, each one coming closer to total destruction."
And finally, here was one from the Icarus AI in the game (which is my avatar! :D ):
"Observe your motivations for breaking the arbitrary laws of current government. Do not miss your chance to be one of us and create the new world order."
"My first love was an anime character" - Super Paper Mario
"Without a fairy, you're not even a real man!" - Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
"I see a golden shiny wire of hope" - Final Fantasy VII
And pretty much all of the Merchant's lines in Resident Evil 4. That guy'd better return for RE5, or else.
it's correct in your signature, fs_metal, but incorrect in your comment...
and yeah, i love that quote too, i was about to use it. another great mgs quote is from the third one when snake and the colonel are talking about man reaching space and Snake says "The earth was blue, but there was no God."
A think the opening movie from Resident Evil deserves a mention for being so unintentionally funny.
NO DON'T GO!
JOSEPH!
I swear trained monkeys could have delivered a more convincing performance.
My favourite quote(s) would have to be...
Organization XIII: "To find is to lose, and to lose is to find."
Goofy: "Do you think it's a trap?"
Donald: "I don't know..."
Organization XIII: "TO FIND IS TO LOSE, AND TO LOSE IS TO FIND"
Donald: "I think he said that twice..."
Goofy: "Yeah, he did..."
Organization XIII: "I SAID IT AGAIN BECAUSE I THOUGHT YOU WEREN'T LISTENING!"
-Kingdom Hearts, Chain of memories
Here is some Splinter cell ones.
American Soldier: You've come to save us! Where are the others?
Sam Fisher: It's just me.
American Soldier: Aw, crap.
Bank Guard: Hey, Emilio, have you seen these new motion sensing lights?
Emilio: No! What do they do?
Bank Guard: When they detect movement, the light turns on!
Emilio: Dat's-dat's amazing!
Bank Guard: Like magic!
Sam Fisher[at a Japanese tea house, Sam has grabbed a guard from behind in a choke-hold] Bad news.
Guard: Agh! I knew it! I knew there were ninjas around here!
Sam Fisher:What?
Guard: Yeah, you've gotta be a ninja. How else could you sneak up and grab me like that?
Sam Fisher:Listen, I don't know what...
Guard: Wow! A real, live, ninja! I can't believe it!
Sam Fisher: Listen, I'm going to kill you if...
Guard: *Wow*! Killed by a ninja... cool!
"My father? You mean my dad?" - Fei, Xenogears
"I dreamt I was a moron." - Squall, FF8
"Sit your ass down in that chair and drink your goddamn TEA!" - Cid, FF7
"You spoony bard!" - Tellah, FF4
"It's something I've already decided. I go to walk with God. Even if there is no place left for me upon my return." - Krelian, Xenogears (And basically his entire speech before the final boss fight. I love it all.)
And who could possibly forget the most infamous game quote of all: "All your base are belong to us." :P
And pretty much all of the Merchant's lines in Resident Evil 4. That guy'd better return for RE5, or else.

A couple friends and I once had an entire conversation on MSN that involved us talking like the merchant and inserting "...straaaaanga" onto the end of sentences. It was hilarious.
See this then: http://youtube.com/watch?v=7oXx0qwe0wc
LOL!
Oh, and these twoare another one of my favorite quotes, from the final boss fight, what the Boss says to snakeof Metal Gear Solid 3:
"What about you Jack? Whats it going to be? Loyalty to your country or loyalty to me? Your country or your old mentor? The mission or your beleifs? Your duty to your unit or your personal feelings? You don't know the truth yet. But sooner or later you'll have to choose. I do'nt expect you to forgive me. But you can't defeat me either. You know me too well."
...and here is what Eva saysin thethe ending of MGS3 too, which I love:
"Scholors tell us that the first spy in history was the snake in the Book of Genesis. In that story, it was Eve who was tempted by the snake in the garden of Eden. But this time around, it was I who tempted the snake and got away with the forbidden fruit of knowledge. Forgive me, Snake..."
Lots of stuff from GTA San Andreas, some of them:
"You lift weights? I lift joints!" (random pedestrian quote)
"Mom, I'm playing with myself!" (Radio ad quote)
"Don't diss my strap!" (Radio skit)
"If yoo vant a friend yoo can meet zem at a rave. Yoo can. Yoo have ze same interests... and you're both boring." (German techno DJ)
"How are you gentlemen..." (do I even need to post the rest :)
"A winner is you!" (NES Pro Wrestling)
"I feel asleep!" "Uh-oh... the truck have started to move!" (Metal Gear NES)
Kefka (FF6) "You sound like chapters from a self-help booklet!"
Ragnaros (WoW) "By fire be purged!"
Lt. Duran (StarCraft) "My name is Duran... Duran! Please please tell me know, is there something I should know?"
Terran Marine (SC BroodWar)"It says to press any key... uhh, where's the any key?"
G-Man (HL2) "Wake up... and smell the ashes."
Squall (FF8) "I dreamtI was a moron."
And pretty much anything said by HK-47.

Can't believe I almost forgot some of the best ones from two of the best game series ever made...
"Look at you, hacker: a pathetic creature of meat and bone, panting and sweating as you run through my corridors. How can you challenge a perfect, immortal machine? "
SHODAN from System Shock 2
"What is a drop of rain, compared to the storm? What is a thought, compared to the mind? Our unity is full of wonder which your tiny individualism cannot even conceive."
The Many from System Shock 2
"The right man in the wrong place can make all the difference in the world. So, wake up, Mr. Freeman. Wake up and smell the ashes."
G-Man from Half-Life 2
"Hey Gordon, you dropped this back in Black Mesa" *tosses crowbar*
Barney from Half-Life 2
"They're waiting for you Gordon....in the test champer"
Scientist from Half-Life
"Why do we have to wear these ridiculous ties?"
Scientist from Half-Life
"What...is...that...smell?"
Barney from Half-Life
"Man, I'd like to get my hands on the guy who made this mess"
Barney to Gordon Freeman in Half-Life
"Rescued at Last! Thank God you're here!"
Scientist running towards the Marines before they shoot him in Half-Life
"Catch me later, I'll buy you a beer"
Barney to Gordon Freeman in Half-Life
I had a hidden quote from conker's bad fur day too. The big pileof hay remember? I must say though, I didn't get far into the game because I only bought it when I already had a 360, and I had lots of other games to play too. I stoppedsomewhere in the poo area. (I know, it's early)"I am the Great Almighty Poo, I'm gonna throw my s**t at you!"
- Conker's Bad Fur Day, the Great Almighty Poo. I must be the only one to play that game....

Ouch, 31 posts and no Minsc and Boo quotes...I must be getting old. I present to you the best comedy writing ever in an rpg :
Minsc: What? Boo is outraged! See his fury! It's small, so look close. Trust me, it's there.
Minsc: This is silly! Buttons are not how one escapes dungeons! I would smash the button and rain beatings liberally down on the wizard for playing such a trick!
Minsc: I do not like the tone of your voice, Dark Elf. The face I have is the face the ladies love! Boo loves Minsc's face, too! Don't you, Boo?
Minsc: Magic is impressive but now Minsc leads. Swords for everyone!
Minsc: [before going berserk] Despair not! I shall inspire you by charging BLINDLY ON.
Sarevok: Ranger, turn your rodent's gaze another direction! I will not be scrutinised as though by some ridiculous divining rod!
Minsc: Boo has an uncanny judge of character, but you... you give him trouble.
Sarevok: I'll give him more than that if this continues! I nearly conquered a nation! I will not be judged by a creature that stores nuts in its cheeks!
Jan: Hey! I resemble that remark.
Sarevok: Trust me, gnome, you do not want to partake in my wrath this day.
Minsc: Food storage aside, Boo controls himself far better than you do. Do you see him ranting about mere glances? Let's look.
Sarevok: What?
Minsc: See? No rant. In fact, now he is snuffling about for a comfy place to sleep. Admirable restraint.
Sarevok: I'm still in Hell, aren't I? This is insanity.
Minsc: Ah, finally a calming look comes across your face. Boo's handiwork, no doubt? Doesn't that feel better?
Sarevok: Let's... let's go kill something. Soon.
Ah, Baldurs Gate 2...so many good times.
WOw nobody said anything yet about Conkur's Bad Fur Day, it is probably the funniest game ever created, and had the remake came out uncensored it would have been one of the funniest things I've ever seen in the entertainment industry.
Just a few, and I mean very few of the funny quotesin the game:
This game is absolutely rife with zany quotes. Here's a few examples:
"Have you ever sat on a piece of Gothic architecture for two hundred years? Gets right up your arse, you know. I thought it was time to move onto a bridge, say. And I'm not moving now."
"Isn't it a little early in the day to be discussing Gothic architecture?" - Our hero Conker, talking with a large, irritable, sore-bottomed gargoyle blocking the path.
"Duct tape? I'll give him a duct tape! ****ing **** I'll bring him down here, I'll show him where ze duct tape is, I'll show him where to stuff it" - Resident mad scientist weasel known as "Zer Professor", obviously annoyed over the latest inane assignment he's gotten from the Panther King.
"I'm gonna take my big bone, and smash that puny squirrel!" - Buga the Knut, big jealous caveman guy with enormous bone club and a supposedly "big boner", threatening our hero after he catches the eye of Buga's best girl Jugga.
"I can't be arsed with this bloody ridiculous contraption! Whose idea was this anyway?" - Gregg, diminutive Grim Reaper-type, having trouble with the loudspeaker he uses to overcome his naturally squeaky voice.
With this kind of insanity, who needs Engrish-laden meme farms like Zero Wing
Ryudo from Grandia II is probably the most underrated badass in all of gaming, seriously the guy has some awesome in game quotes up there with the likes of Duke Nukem, but done with dry sarcasm
Here are a few of Ryudo's quotes (actually a lot of them):
Ask Elena. She doesn't seem to have much taste in anything. Bonnets included." (to Roan)
Tomorrow we take the Skyway, no matter how many kittens are stuck in trees."
Let's try to be rational here. One: I'm not being paid. I repeat that - I AM NOT BEING PAID!"
You might want to start a bonfire, though. Going to be alot of bodies when I'm done.
I don't care! Anything that gets in my way is going to get three feet of steel down its damned throat. ANYTHING!
Well, when we get back to the Papal State, Zera's going to have a little confessional session with me.
So this is the power of the Granasaber... It fights evil and has plenty of leg room.
Oh goodie, our pockets overflow with nuts. Let us head back for our just reward's. Hurrah!
Don't bother. Skye's so old he can BARELY taste anymore. Last I checked his favorite food was curd.
Ryudo (after reading a book in the St Heim Papal State Library)
Does not Ryudo tire of this? Does not he want to put his fist through this book? May his suffering end quickly
Ryudo to Skye: Aren't you meant to be pecking and scratching some dirt somewhere
Thats some strong bubble bath!
Maybe he's just easily amused. Whee.
woopee for granas, let run around trailing brightly coloured ribbons from our hands"
Hey, the runt looks happy. Maybe if we give him more, he will start leaving dead birds on our doorsteps
If your idea of fun is wading through rivers of blood, gobbets of flesh and gut fresh upon your lips, then yes, it will be fun

Pecker : Sorry, I got a bit carried away. Did I mention how fabulous your hair looks?
Damas : Pecker!

Oh yeah, do gaming manuals count? The booklets for the first two Earthworm Jim games were pure hilarity throughout...
"Exactly what part of a cow is the 'Tender Loin'?"
"It's like a mega plasma on steroids as seen through a magnifying glass reflected off a carnival mirror"
"[just paraphrasing on this one] Turn the power ON. You should see the SNES logo. If not, open your eyes and try again."
and many, many more. Anyone know where I can find PDF or text versions of the whole thing?
Here's a couple of myfavorites.
Good. You see, señorita, mystery is important. To know everything, to know the whole truth, is dull. There is no magic in that. Magic is not knowing, magic is wondering about what and how and where.
-Cortez, The Longest Journey
Who was that? Wait, don't tell me, evil wizard. They all sound like Richard III on crack to me.
-April Ryan, The Longest Journey
Well I, for one, plan on discovering the secrets of the multiverse by rubbing cottage cheese on my belly and eating vast quantities of fresh-water fish. Mmm... cheese.
-The Nameless One, Planescape Torment
Nordom: Attention; Morte. I have a question. Do you have a destiny? A purpose?
Morte: Is Annah still wearing clothes?
Nordom: Affirmatory.
Morte: Then the answer is yes.
-More Planescape Torment
One time you awoke obsessed with the idea that *I* was your skull and chased me around the Spire trying to shatter and devour me. Luckily, you were crushed by a passing cart in the street.
-Morte, errrr... yet more Planescape Torment
Vhailor: When the injustice is great enough, justice will lend me the strength needed to correct it. None may stand against it. It will shatter every barrier, sunder any shield, tear through any enchantment, and lend its servant the power to pass sentence. Know this: There is nothing on all the Planes that can stay the hand of justice when it is brought against them. It may unmake armies. It may sunder the thrones of gods. Know that for all who betray justice, I am their fate. And fate carries an executioner's axe.
Nameless One: I see.
Vhailor: No, you do not see. Pray you never will.
-Last Planescape Torment quote, really!
He dropped to his knees to beg for mercy, which offered me height advantage as I smashed in his skull with a sledgehammer.
-Viconia, Baldur's Gate 2
And to finish it off: GO FOR THE EYES BOO, GO FOR THE EYES! AARRRRRGGGG!
From the one, the only, MINSC!
