Beyond the Mystical Mountain
Your article Beyond the Mystical Mountain has been speedy deleted as an unremarkable subject, based on its complete lack of Google presence, contradictory information, links to non-existent articles, and a related vandalistic edit to Hamumu Software by w:User:Rabbistein. Please do not add nonsense to Wikiquote. Thank you for your cooperation. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 09:39, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed
Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Rabbistein. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Rabbistein~enwikiquote that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello, Mayur. A request has been made at Changing username/Usurpation to usurp, or "take over", your username because you have not used it to edit, and another user would like to use it to edit. Changing username/Usurpation says that any unused username may be usurped if the user is given an opportunity to object and does not do so.

If you do not object to being renamed to a new username in order for another user to use the name you currently have, please log in and post a reply here saying so (you may also tell us what username you would like to be renamed to, or we will provide you with a generic one).

If you do nothing : the request will be filled shortly, and your account will be moved to a generic username. You may request that it be moved to a new username of your choice at any time.

If you object to being renamed : please log in and make an edit to this page clearly stating that you object to usurpation.

Please note that even if your current username is usurped, you can still edit and your data will not be lost; your preferences, watchlist, and other user settings will be transferred to a new username.

Thank you for your time.-- BD2412 T 19:44, 16 November 2011 (UTC)

Sarah Chang

Sarah Chang (born December 10, 1980) is an American violinist.

Korean Quarterly 1998

 * "I remember when I was eight, my friends thought it was a little bit unusual that I was going off to Europe or to Asia, and playing concerts. And they would go to Tower (Records) and see my CD out. So that was a little different! But, I guess they've gotten used to it now, and really could not care less," she asserted. "It's nice because most of my friends are not musicians, and it keeps me grounded."

PBS.org 1998

 * I had this very interesting experience when I was about 13. I went to Finland and it was dead in the middle of winter. It was freezing cold. There was so much snow and I went to Ainola, which is Sibelius' house. It was completely isolated -- just snow and forest, trees and the lake, completely beautiful but very quiet. And very serene. And I thought, well, this is where he was composing his stuff. And his great symphonies and the violin concerto, this is where it basically came from. I also got this little handbook about Ainola and there's a part that says that Sibelius wouldn't allow running water in his house because it disturbed him and his thought processes. So his daughters had to go out to the well which was half a mile away and then bring back water. So I thought, "Wow!" This person was really that much into control and silence. So you go and look at the concerto after that and the way it starts in the beginning: very shimmery. Very beautiful. But in a way it is isolated, and you feel kind of lonely when you're playing that. And gradually of course it builds up into this great big climax when every single orchestra-like instrument known to mankind is clashing and you're trying to break out there and you're trying to play your heart out. But really it did help me realize what he is like.
 * Now this is very funny because my brother's name is Michael Chang, I go in for interviews or just talk to people and they say, "so what does your brother do?" I say he plays tennis and they automatically assume that he is Michael Chang, the tennis player, and I don't say anything.

JS online 1999

 * "I hate analyzing stuff. I do the bare minimum. When it comes to interpretation, I just play it and go from there. I think emotion is everything. When you get the notes, you've just scratched the surface. The best things happen spontaneously, on stage. I'm doing three concerts here; I guarantee that none of them will be the same. We're not machines."
 * "There are certain moments in performance when I'm hand-in-glove with a conductor and feel I can take risks and try something completely different from what we did in rehearsal. Sometimes we pull it off, and it's magical. Other times you try to get creative, the support isn't there, and you think, oh well, maybe next time."

NEWSWEEK 1999

 * I've worked with a lot of living composers recently. It drives me nuts, though, that they like to change things at the last minute. For example, two years ago I played a piece that had been completed only the day before, in front of thousands of people in a huge stadium in Taejon, South Korea.
 * Everything in my life is planned. It adds stability, but it makes me yearn for something that's not planned, that's spontaneous.
 * I try not to take my life for granted. I have friends who have tendinitis. That would kill me. A short break from the violin is fine, but if I don't touch it for three or four days, my fingers start to feel funny.
 * The ultimate high for me is being onstage in front of an audience. Nothing else can compare.

Interview with Barnes & Noble.com June 2003

 * I've always ranked the Brahms as the Mount Everest of all concertos -- and the Beethoven, of course.

 * I like Lenny Kravitz, I like Pink, and for forever and ever I've thought that Whitney Houston has an amazing voice. I really love great voices.

Newsweek September 2006

 * (about concerts)"I love the adrenaline rush you get from having a live audience in front of you. There's nothing like performing live. I like to categorize classical music as one of those really beautiful, glamorous gems from the old era. The men are in tails onstage, the women are in beautiful dresses and the soloist comes out in a gorgeous evening gown. I really, really love that old-school glamour.For me, concert days are always exciting. It doesn't matter if I give 100 concerts or 150 concerts that season. Every concert is magical. Every concert has a sparkle to it. The challenge is to keep myself fresh and to give a spontaneous performance every single night while maturing and growing as a musician every day. The whole art form of being onstage is so mysterious and magical, it fascinates me. "

 * (about her beginnings) "People assume I always wanted to be a violinist. It was actually just one of many other hobbies that I had. I had very enthusiastic parents. They gave me swimming lessons and horseback riding and gymnastics and ballet. My mom put me on the piano when I was about 3i. I asked for the violin when I was 4 because I wanted something that was smaller and more portable. I auditioned for the Juilliard School when I was about 6. During the week, I went to a regular school in Philadelphia so I could be with kids my own age." and "I started my career when I was 8 with two debuts in New York and Philadelphia, and then I started recording when I was 9. When you're so young, you don't realize the impact of a New York Philharmonic debut. You're told to do something and you go out and do it and you don't ask too many questions. I think the questions come later when you're in your teens. By the time I was 14, I was spending probably half the year in Europe. So I was out of school a lot. I did most of my homework by e-mail or fax. We made it work because my professors were incredible."

 * (about her concert in North Korea) "The concert was full of government officials. Every single last seat. It was invitation only, but it was an unbelievable experience. Frightening and exhilarating at the same time. And I just thought about how lucky I am. I am so fortunate to be a musician, and at that moment, I genuinely felt that music is the one and only universal language."

Guardian November 2007
Q: Did you know you had talent straight away?

A: Not really. It was only when I auditioned for the Juilliard arts school in New York at age five and a half that I realized I was at least eight years younger than everyone else, so I knew I was on to something. Before that, music was just one hobby among many.

Q: What was your big breakthrough?

A: Making my debut with the New York Philharmonic, age eight. The day after my audition, they rang and asked if I could perform the Paganini concerto the next day without rehearsal. I said yes because I didn't know any better. There's no way I'd have that sort of fearlessness now.

Killswitch Engage

Killswitch Engage, an American metalcore band

Adam Dutkiewicz
Dutkiewicz, guitarist of Killswitch Engage, is known for his coarse humor during live performances, often involving references to sexual acts, bodily functions and profanity.

 * I want you to turn to the fourteen-year-old girl next to you and mosh her training bra off!

 * This next song goes out to all the kids with braces, for keeping it metal!

 * This song is about the time Howard fell in the shower, "When Darkness Falls"

 * This song is what happens when God Forbid rides a skateboard, "When Darkness Falls"

 * Hello! I have been brought back through surgery and technological advancements to come and kill all emo children! You will die through a barrage of licks! You will die, and then I will take your emo bones, grind them up into a minty candy—kinda like Mentos, but it will be called Emos, and it will not be the Freshmaker, it will be the Pussymaker! "Oh, but I have emotions! I have emotions!" Fuck your emotions! Drink beer and fuck women!

 * I just wanted you guys to know that I will not be happy until I find some 18 year old girl who will let me rest my balls on her face like a pair of spooky glasses...that are wet...and were dropped on the barbershop floor...and smell

Pope Benedict XV

Pope Benedict XV (Latin: Benedictus PP. XV), (Italian: Benedetto XV), (born Giacomo Paolo Giovanni Battista della Chiesa; 21 November 1854 - 22 January 1922), was head of the Catholic Church from 1914 until his death in 1922. His pontificate was largely overshadowed by World War I and its political, social, and humanitarian consequences in Europe.

In 1914, the College of Cardinals chose della Chiesa at the relatively young age of 59 at the outbreak of World War I, which he labeled "the suicide of civilized Europe". The war and its consequences were Benedict's main focus during the early years of his pontificate. He immediately declared the neutrality of the Holy See and attempted from that perspective to mediate peace in 1916 and 1917. Both sides rejected his initiatives.

Quotes

 * And you, beloved children, whose lost it is to promote learning under the magisterium of the Church, continue as you are doing to love and tend the noble poet whom We do not hesitate to call the most eloquent singer of the Christian idea.
 * In Praeclara Summorum (1921-04-30)

Ad Reinhardt

Adolph Dietrich Friedrich Reinhardt ("Ad" Reinhardt) (December 24, 1913 – August 30, 1967) was a painter, writer, and pioneer of conceptual and minimal art. He was also a critic of abstract expressionism.

1940s

 * What greater challenge today.. ..to disorder and insensitivity; what greater propaganda for integration than this emotionally intense, dramatic division of space? [quote in 1943, discussing the art of Piet Mondrian ]
 * Quote of Ad Reinhardt in: Abstract Expressionism, Davind Anfam, Thames and Hudson Ltd London, 1990.

 * An abstract painting will react to you if you react to it. You get from it what you bring to it. It will meet you half way but no further. It is alive if you are. It represents something and so do you. YOU, SIR, ARE A SPACE, TOO.
 * In: Quote from the six page comic How to Look at Art, in Arts & Architecture, January 1947.

1950s

 * It’s been said many times in world art writing that one can find some of painting’s meaning by looking not only at what painters do, but what they refuse to do.
 * In: Contemporary American Painting, University of Illinois, Urbana 1952, p. 226

 * And today many artists like myself refuse to be involved in some ideas. In painting – for me – no fooling-the-eye, no window-hole-in-the wall, no illusions, no representations, no associations, no distortions, no paint-caricaturing, no dream pictures of dripping, no delirium trimmings, no sadism or slashing, no therapy, no kicking-the-effigy, no clowning, no acrobatics, no heroics, no self-pity, no guilt.. ..no abstraction of everything, no nonsense, no involvements, no confusing painting with everything that is no painting.
 * In: Contemporary American Painting, University of Illinois, Urbana 1952, p. 226-227

1960s

 * 'Study the old masters. Look at nature. Watch out for armpits'. [in 1956, Reinhardt is quoting Paul Cézanne here freely]
 * In: Pax, no. 13, 1960; as quoted in Abstract Expressionism: Creators and Critics, ed. Clifford Ross, Abrahams Publishers, New York 1990, p. 150

 * My painting represents the victory of the forces of darkness and peace over the powers of light and evil. [1957, reacting on a remark of Picasso ]
 * In: Pax, no. 13, 1960; as quoted in Abstract Expressionism: Creators and Critics, ed. Clifford Ross, Abrahams Publishers, New York 1990, p. 151

 * Voyaging into the night, one knows exactly where, on a known vessel, an absolute harmony with the elements of the unreal. [1959, reacting on a remark of Robert Motherwell ]
 * In: Pax, no. 13, 1960; as quoted in Abstract Expressionism: Creators and Critics, ed. Clifford Ross, Abrahams Publishers, New York 1990, p. 152

 * The one thing to say about art is that it is one thing. Art is art-as-art and everything else is everything else. Art as art is nothing but art. Art is not what is not art.
 * Quote of Ad Reinhardt (1963); as cited in: Joseph Kosuth, (1969), "Art after Philosophy"

 * There is nothing there. What you see is not what you see. What you see is nothing. Nothing but shapes, lines, colors. What you see is whats in your mind. What you see is something somebody told you to look for. Look out for anything you see! Watch it! Watch out! Take care! Don’t leap before you look out.
 * In: the 'Ad Reinhardts Papers', Archives of American Art, microfilm no. N/69-103, frame no. 268

'Art-as-Art Dogma' part II, (1964)

 * Art-as-Art Dogma, (1964) part II; (as cited in Abstract Expressionism: Creators and Critics, ed. Clifford Ross, Abrahams Publishers, New York 1990, p. 150 - 158)

 * The one thing to say about art is that it is one thing. Art is art-as-art and everything else is everything else. Art-as-art is nothing but art. Art is not what is not art.
 * p. 152

 * The one object of fifty years of abstract art is to present art-as-art and as nothing else, to make it into the one thing it is only, separating and defining it more and more, making it purer and emptier, more absolute and exclusive – non-objective, non-representational, non-figurative, non-imagist, non-expressionist, non-subjective. The only and one way to say what abstract art or art-as-art is, is to say what it is not.
 * p. 154

 * The one question, the one principle, the one crisis in art of the twentieth century centers in the uncompromising 'purity' of art, and in the consciousness that art comes from art only, not from anything else.
 * p. 155

 * The one place for art-as-art is the museum of fine art. The reason of the museum or fine art is the preservation of ancient and modern art that cannot be made again and that does not have to be done again. A museum of fine art should exclude everything but fine art, and be separate of museums of ethnology, geology, archaeology, history.. .Any disturbance of a true museum's soundlessness, timelessness, airlessness, and lifelessness is a disrespect.
 * p. 155

 * The one thing to say about art and life is that art is art and life is life, that art is not life and life is not art. A 'slice-of-life' art is no better or worse than a 'slice-of-art' life. Fine art is not a 'means of making a living' or a 'way of living a life', and a artist who dedicates his life to his art or his art to his life burdens his art with his life and his life with his art. Art that is a matter of life and death is neither fine nor free.
 * p. 155

 * The art of 'figuring' or 'picturing' is not a fine art. An artist who is lobbying as a 'creature of circumstances' or log rolling as a 'victim of fate' is not a fine master artist. No one ever forces an artist to be pure.
 * pp. 156-157

 * The one art that is abstract and pure enough to have the one problem and possibility, in our time and timelessness, of the 'one single grand original problem' is pure abstract painting. Abstract painting is not just another school or movement or style but the first truly unmannered and untrammeled and un-entangled, styleless, universal painting. No other art or painting is detached or empty or immaterial enough.
 * p. 157

 * The one standard in art is oneness and fineness, rightness and purity, abstractness and evanescence. The one thing to say about art is, its breathlessness, lifelessness, deathlessness, contentlessness, formlessness, spacelessness, and timelessness. This is always the end of art.
 * p. 158

Posthumous

 * vagueness is a 'romantic' value.. ..an emphasis on geometry is an emphasis on the 'known', on order and knowledge.
 * Quote of Ad Reinhardt in: Abstract Expressionist Painting in America, W.C, Seitz, Cambridge Massachusetts, 1983, p. 107

 * The artists is responsible for his history and his nature, his history is part of his nature.
 * In: Gerhard Richter, Doubt and belief in painting, Robert Storr, MOMA, New York, 2003, p. 32 note 1.

Quotes about Ad Reinhardt

 * I wanted to be soft like Rothko and ruthless like Ad Reinhardt.
 * Jenny Holzer Art Is the Highest Form of Hope & Other Quotes by Artists by Phaidon (2016) p 172

 * If you don't know what Reinhardt's paintings are about, you don't know what painting is about [after Reinhardt's death in 1967].
 * Quote of Frank Stella (1967); as quoted in Abstract Expressionism, David Anfam, Thames and Hudson Ltd London, 1990

Talk:Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (musical)

Okay, I'm confused. What exactly about this page needs to be cleaned up? --Angel 21:13, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Have you examined Templates/Films, which is the link behind the text "standard format of film and theatre articles" in the cleanup notice? Please note the section on dialogue, which is substantially different from what this article uses. There are also song-quoting formatting issues, but I don't believe we have any true standard on this yet. If you are still confused, I can provide more specific advice. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 21:58, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

 * I was wondering about the song formatting, I've added a lot of musical stuff, and I can't seem to find anything on how to do it right. Granted, there's a few different ways it *could* be done, but where would I go to ask which one is right OR how should it be decided which way is right?

Sheffield

Sheffield is a city and metropolitan borough in South Yorkshire, England. Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire, its name derives from the River Sheaf, which runs through the city. With some of its southern suburbs annexed from Derbyshire, the city has grown from its largely industrial roots to encompass a wider economic base. It is one of the eight largest regional English cities that make up the Core Cities Group. Sheffield is the third largest English district by population.

During the 19th century, Sheffield gained an international reputation for steel production. Many innovations were developed locally, including crucible and stainless steel, fueling an almost tenfold increase in the population during the Industrial Revolution.

Quotes

 * Ther was no man, for peril, dorste hym touche. A Sheffeld thwitel baar he in his hose. Round was his face, and camus was his nose;
 * Geoffrey Chaucer, "The Reeve's Tale", in The Canterbury Tales, (1297).

 * This town of Sheffield is very populous and large, the streets narrow, and the houses dark and black, occasioned by the continued smoke of the forges, which are always at work: Here they make all sorts of cutlery-ware, but especially that of edged-tools, knives, razors, axes, &. and nails;
 * Daniel Defoe, A Tour Through the Whole Island of Great Britain, (1724).

 * Some houses are brick, some stone, and there is a fair number of pretty ones; but they are lost in such a multitude of shapeless huts and outlandish factory-buildings that Sheffield could never pass for a fine town.
 * Alexandre and François La Rochefoucauld, Diaries, translation in Norman Scarfe, Innocent Espionage: The LA Rochefoucauld Brothers' Tour of England in 1785

 * If the people of Sheffield could only receive a tenth part of what their knives sell for by retail in America, Sheffield might pave its streets with silver.
 * William Cobbett, Rural Rides, (1830).

 * Generally in Sheffield the average of the comfort of the lower classes is above that of most other places; we have not yet got into the abominable way of cellars or of many families living in the same house.
 * John Parker, Parliamentary Select Committee on Public Walks: Minutes of Evidence (1833), quoted in Clyde Binfield et al, The History of the City of Sheffield 1843-1993: Volume One: Politics, (1993).

 * What a beautiful place Sheffield would be, if Sheffield were not there!
 * Walter White, A Month in Yorkshire, (1861).

 * There is no more public spirit in Sheffield than there is in the smallest village of Yorkshire.
 * Thomas Moore, Sheffield Independent, 16 April 1870, quoted in Clyde Binfield et al, The History of the City of Sheffield 1843-1993: Volume One: Politics, (1993).

 * I see a pretty state of things in your Municipality. Everything is mean, petty, and narrow in the extreme.  What a contrast to Leeds!
 * Anthony John Mundella, letter of October 1871 to Robert Leader, quoted in Clyde Binfield et al, The History of the City of Sheffield 1843-1993: Volume One: Politics, (1993).

 * ...the town of Sheffield is of great antiquity, and its manufactures are of world-wide reputation, especially that of cutlery, which has been celebrated for more than 500 years.
 * Petition for city status to Queen Victoria from Sheffield Town Council, 1 February 1893.

 * The progress of Sheffield in my lifetime has been something wonderful. Why, in my young days it was a little bit of a place of no consequence and no trade.  When I think of the small notions and little minds of the public men of old Sheffield I can hardly realise that the City has become the fine important flourishing place it is today, one of the largest Cities of the Empire.
 * Frederick Mappin, 1905, quoted in Sidney Pollard, A History of Labour in Sheffield, (1959).

 * It could justly claim to be called the ugliest town in the Old World: its inhabitants, who want it to be pre-eminent in everything, very likely make that claim for it … And the stench! If at rare moments you stop smelling sulphur it is because you have begun smelling gas.
 * George Orwell, The Road to Wigan Pier, (1937).

COST Action C11 by European Commission
The European Commission's COST Action C11 (2004 - European Cooperation in the field of Scientific and Technical Research) cites, in its conclusions on "Case studies in Greenstructure Planning" involving 15 European countries. It says ...

 * Sheffield is fortunate to have one of the strongest green structures of any city in the UK. This green structure, which at its core is linked by watercourses, underlies the City. The effectiveness of the river system as the core of the green structure is supplemented by: the agricultural area, the moorland, the woodlands and water features which lie outside the built-up area. The public open spaces within the built-up area and extensive private gardens, which cover much of the surface of the City outside its core area, are also linked to this system.

 * All the features of the green structure in effect work together to make the City more environmentally sustainable: for example, together they act as a sponge to reduce flash flooding; they support a relatively high level of biodiversity, particularly because of the extent of the gardens and the existence of the natural corridors along the rivers; the valleys drain cooler air down from the hilltops towards the city centre and the industrial areas beyond, improving air quality and also temperatures in the summer in the built-up core.

No intro, despite a no-intro tag having been put up five weeks ago; no sourcing of any of the quotes; no translation of some quotes in French; utter inanity.

 * Comment on copyvio: The Copyrights page lists the four criteria for fair use, and mentions that the Wikiquote response to the first two would always be the same. So let's consider criteria 3 and 4:
 * the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and
 * the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

 * Relative to the entire B5 work (or even relative to one episode), the Declaration is not overlarge. And printing the declaration here will by no means decrease the potential market for B5. --Ubiquity 19:54, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete. It's already in Babylon 5. In fact, it's currently the sole quote for that episode. It's not as prettily formatted, but I would point out that, as a quote from the show, this is speech transcribed, which has no inherent visual format. If we consider it as a complete print work like a poem, that should have specific formatting, then it would be a copyvio. Better we stick to the former interpretation and formatting, and leave the prettyprinting to official publications and fan sites. ~ Jeff Q (talk) 23:20, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. A user looking for this article is unlikely to type in the full title; they will go to the B5 page.  Even if for some reason they don't, since Mediawiki is so sensitive to the exact case and spelling of titles, they probably still won't find it except through the search facility.

Final Fantasy XII

Final Fantasy XII is a role-playing game released by Square Enix in 2006.

Vaan

 * One of these days, I'll fly an airship of my own. I'll be a sky pirate, free to go where I will.
 * [to a comatose Reks] I got you some of those flowers you like. Galbana lilies, remember? You used to say how they smelt nice, how pretty they were...Remember? [pause] The King. Did you... Were you really a part of it? Even if... Even if you were... Captain Basch must have tricked you into it!
 * My brother was no liar!
 * Hating the Empire, getting revenge... It's all I ever thought about. But I never did anything about it. I mean, I realized there was nothing I could do. It made me feel hollow, alone. And then...I'd miss my brother. I'd say stuff like "I'm gonna be a sky pirate", or some other stupid thing. Just anything to keep my mind off it. I was just...I was running away. I needed to get away from his death.
 * You know what? I'm through with it - I'm through running. I'm ready to find my purpose. To find some answers, some reasons.
 * Got a surprise for you! / How 'bout some of this! (Red Spiral)
 * You're mine! / I've got it! (White Whorl)
 * Not a chance! (Pyroclasm)
 * Basch lives!
 * Don't listen to Ondore's lies!
 * I'm Captain Basch!
 * I'm Captain Basch fon Rosenburg of Dalmasca!
 * Who said anything about strong? You'll make it. You got good friends.

Ashelia "Ashe" B'nargin Dalmasca

 * I confirm what Judge Magister Gabranth and Larsa Solidor have said here. Please. Stand down your attack. The war is over. Ivalice looks to the horizon. A new day has dawned. We are free!
 * I am simply myself. No more and no less. And I want only to be free.
 * Even with power, we cannot change what has passed. What is done, is done.
 * In all Dalmasca’s history, not once did we rely on the Dusk Shard. Our people resolved never to use it, though their need might be dire...That was the Dalmasca I wanted back. To use the stone would be to betray that.
 * [During Quickening Level 1: Northswain's Glow]: "I must endure!"
 * [During Quickening Level 2: Heaven's Wrath]: "I must be strong!"
 * [During Quickening Level 3: Maelstrom's Bolt]: "I must...believe!"
 * You're a sky pirate, aren't you? Then steal me! Is that too much to ask?
 * Dalmasca does not forget kindness, nor ill deed done. With sword in hand, she aids her allies, sword in hand she lays to rest her foes. This nethicite must be my sword. I will avenge those who have died, and the Empire... will know remorse.

Ffamran "Balthier" Mied Bunansa

 * An Atomos? All skiff, no ship. Hardly fit for a leading man...
 * Believe what you want to, whatever it takes to make you happy. What's done is done.
 * I am the leading man. Might need to do something heroic.
 * Vaan, the Strahl's in your hands! You'd better take care of her, you hear? If there's one scratch on her when I get back--
 * More Nethicite. No wonder they invaded.
 * The Ifrit is playing with fire, and I'd rather not get burned.
 * Vitality before violence.
 * There's a proper way to do everything.
 * With each passing day, the world finds new and exciting ways to kill a man.
 * Hmph. I daresay I've soiled my cuffs. If a dungeon's waiting for us at the end of the night, it had best have a change of wardrobe.
 * Yes, [the mimics] drink all the electricity, but they'll give it back to you if you ask nicely. Sticking them with a sword helps, too.
 * Not many Viera where you come from, thief?
 * Incidentally, what is the going rate for rescuing Princesses these days? Food would be a good start -- the good stuff, mind you.
 * It's not easy being this popular, you know.
 * Remember what curiosity killed. Just a friendly word of advice.
 * [During Quickening Level 1: Fires of War] I never miss! or Please...on your guard!
 * [During Quickening Level 2: Tides of Fate] Let me show you how it's done! [as the tidal wave is about to wash over enemies] "Heads up!" or "Ha!"
 * [During Quickening Level 3: Element of Treachery] Here she comes! (when the meteor approaches)
 * ...Driver! Faster, if you please. I would be loath to expend any of the violence of my present mood on my companions.

Basch fon Ronsenburg

 * If I could protect but one person from war's horror, then I would bear any shame. I would bear it proudly.
 * I could not protect my home. What is shame to me?
 * The time has come to tell you the truth of it.
 * Let them watch. I know something of cages.
 * I want you to take me to Balthier. Even caged birds need wings.
 * I had someone more important to defend. And defend her I have.
 * We are the arbiters of our destiny.
 * (to Judge Gabranth) Then come! Wield your hatred and crush me. I welcome it!

Vayne Carudas Solidor

 * Archadia's Emperor is freely chosen by Her people. I am but an elected official and nothing more.
 * My hands are stained with blood. I see little reason to stay them now.
 * Is it with hatred you look upon your Consul? With hatred you look upon the Empire?
 * The once-great House Solidor is now reduced to myself, and my dear brother Larsa.
 * Our dear Cid slain by his own son? Tis a common tale of late.
 * Your lives are forfeit, and your insurgence with them. Dalmasca will again know order.
 * [Using Mach Wave] What am I to do with those who would oppose me...but show them death?
 * (Referring to the late King Raminas) Even now, he remains among you, protecting you. His ardor for the peace and weal of Dalmasca falters not!

Fran

 * In vain glory they arose, shouting challenges at the gods. But prevail they did not, their doom it was to walk the mist until time's end. A legend of the Nu Mou. -Regarding Espers
 * I hear the cry of a terrible power...
 * We? No, I.
 * You are ill at ease. The nethicite troubles you?
 * In the village you will find her: Mjrn. Bring her to me. She will know why you call her.
 * I am unwelcome. An unsought guest in their wood.
 * [During Quickening Level 3: Shatterheart] It ends now. (charges ice and throws it at the enemy, blow ice from her hand) Crumble! (as ice shatters)
 * The gods are toying with us.
 * I have discarded Wood and village. I won my freedom. Yet my past had been cut away forever. No longer can my ears hear the Green Word. This…solitude, you want, Mjrn?
 * The Viera may begin as part of the Wood, but it is not the only end that we may choose. (to Jote)
 * You've let your eyes betray your heart...
 * That's what sky pirates do, they fly do they not?
 * Then it's settled. We should leave before the Marquis realizes she's missing. Like proper kidnappers.

Reddas

 * A city of men without countries. Pirates of the sea and of the sky. Few are they who would fain lay down their lives for a friend, let alone a king.
 * When he helped you off the Leviathan, he spited the Judges full sore. He cannot sit in idleness and expect to avoid a reckoning.
 * My lady. Your words still sound of doubt. Pray you reach your answer, ere we the Sun-cryst.
 * The Illusions of the past. You think to have cast them off, only to find them years later, unwearying, unrelenting. The past can bind a man as surely as irons.
 * A Judge Magister there was… Two years past, he took the Midlight Shard and used it not knowing what he did…and Nabudis was blown away. Cid ordered this of him to learn the Nethicite's true power. That man swore never to let such terrible power be used again. He forsook his Judicer's plate, and his name.
 * The past can bind a man as surely as irons.

Judge Gabranth

 * Why do you hesitate? Take what is yours. The Cryst was a blade, it was meant for you. Wield it! Avenge your father! Yes, it was I who wore Basch's face--who cut down the life of Dalmasca. Lady Ashe! Your father's murderer is here!
 * I slew your king. I slew your country. Do these deeds not demand vengeance? (Ashe raises the Treaty-Blade) Yes. Good! Find your wrath! Take up your sword! Fight, and serve those that died before you!
 * No, we cannot escape the past. This man is living proof. What is your past, daughter of Dalmasca? Did you not swear revenge? Do the dead not demand it?
 * You claim no need of power? What of your broken kingdom's shame? The dead demand justice!
 * Yet without power, what future can you claim? What good a kingdom you cannot defend?
 * (to Basch) Hah! Defend? You? You who failed Landis and Dalmasca? What can shame hope to keep safe? Your shield is shattered! Your oaths poison those you would protect!
 * Hear me Basch. Do not think killing the kingslayer will win you back your honor. When you abandoned home and kin, your name was forever stained with blood.
 * Preen and strut as you like! In the end, we are the same. Blood-thirsting carrion birds, hell-bent on revenge!
 * I am a Judge Magister. Even in disgrace. My just reward for aiding the empire that destroyed my homeland.
 * Futile, Basch! Long have I walked in hatred's company. As long as I can curse your name, I shall not be defeated!
 * Look Basch! Your friends die! As they must, for surely you cannot protect them! Know now the despair you have taught me!
 * Even a stray has pride! Here I pay my debt.

The Judge Magistracy

 * Judge Ghis: His Excellency, the Consul, asks the ministry of the disthroned royal family in restoring peace to Dalmasca. Those who foster instability and unrest, who claim royal blood without proof, they shall meet their fate at the gallows. There are no exceptions.
 * Judge Ghis: Such a great shame. I must confess: I though you the one that would help us restore peace to Dalmasca. No matter. We hold the proof of your royal lineage. A maid of passing resemblance will serve our purposes now. As for you my dear... (begins casting a spell) The Empire requires you no more!
 * Judge Ghis: Your Majesty does not disappoint. Ever quick to spurn an honorable surrender, as was your father.
 * Judge Ghis: Such a tremendous honor to again be graced with your presence, Majesty. You left us with such great dispatch upon our last encounter that I must confess I had begun to worry that we may have given your Majesty some cause for offense.
 * Judge Ghis: Lady Ashe, let us take [Balthier] for the people of Dalmasca. Your Majesty wallows in indecision on peril of their heads. And his shall be the first to fall.
 * Judge Ghis: We've found it at last: true deifacted nethicite. The power of the Dynast–King in my hands. Humph. Blood alone does not an emperor make, Vayne.
 * Judge Bergan: Ah, our vagrant Princess! Swift has your lust for revenge led you to the Sword of Kings. You will surrender it to me. Too late and to their sorrow do those who misplace their trust in gods learn their fate.
 * Judge Bergan: (reacting to conclusion that Nethicite controls him) No! No, the power of manufacted Nethicite is the power of man. A weapon forged by his wisdom, who would challenge the gods themselves. A fitting blade for a true Dynast-King. Raithwall did but pretend the title, a cur begging Nethicite scraps from his master's table. Hark, Ivalice hails her new Dynast-King, Vayne Solidor! He shall defy the will of the gods, and see the reigns of history in the hands of man. His time is nigh! The new Ivalice holds no place for the name Dalmasca. The stain of Raithwall's blood shall be washed clean from history's weave.
 * Judge Zargabaath: This is Judge Magister Zargabaath, captain of the Alexander, flagship of the 12th Dalmascan Fleet of the Archadian army. I address all ships in Rabanastre's airspace. The Bahamut must not be allowed to fall on the city of Rabanastre! We are preparing to ram her! Do not interfere!
 * Judge Zargabaath: Should she fall, the paling will not hold, and all Rabanastre will be obliterated! All ships, concentrate your fire on the Alexander’s remains once Bahamut is clear of the city.

Ba'gamnan

 * Ba'gamnan: What does that philanderer think he's doing? I was to kill Balthier, not those addle-pated Imperials!
 * Ba'gamnan: As for you! We need Balthier alive! His corpse fetches but half the bounty!
 * Ba'gamnan: The whole affair has the smell of money. I may have to wet my beak a little.
 * Ba'gamnan: After them!

Rare souls who accost tower and sky, You alone binding magicks stir. You whom worldly props are now denied, On your own selves must rely, Fed of stores from harvests past.

Rare souls who accost tower and sky, You alone binding magicks stir. You who trust not might, To what will you trust?

Rare souls who accost tower and sky, You alone binding magicks stir. You whose magicks scatter on the winds, Will what remains advantage you, Your foes to disadvantage?

Others

 * Gerun: The Humes ever skew hist'ry's weave. With haste they move through too-short lives. Driven to err by base desires, t'ward waste and wasting, on they run.
 * Gerun: The treaty held with Kings of old is but a mem'ry, cold and still. With you we now shall treat anew, to cut a run for his'try's flow.
 * Gerun: The Nethicite is ours to give, to chosen bearer or to none. The heretic trespassed and set the rose of knowledge in Man's hand. With imitations they profane, it is anathema to us.
 * Gerun: Now take this sword, this Treaty-Blade. Occurian seal, mark of your worth. Cut deep the Cryst and seize your Shards. Wield Dynast-King's power! Destroy Venat!
 * High-Chief Zayalu: The proud heart becomes dulled to the suffering of others. When the strong heart forget [sic] suffering, it can only lead to evil.
 * Venat: Indeed. What claim does Gerun have on history's reins…seated on throne immortal, rent from time?
 * Venat: Yes, so much accomplished in six fleeting years. Man's fervor o'er all obstacles prevailing.
 * Reks: What..have you done?
 * Lamont (Larsa): This is what I came here to see. Nethicite.
 * Larsa: Attention! This is Larsa Ferrinas Solidor. My brother, Vayne, has died honorably in the battle. The Imperial fleet is now under my command.
 * Mjrn: Stay away!!! Power-needy hume!
 * Repeated Line: The reins of history back in the hands of Man.
 * Repeated Line: Manufacted Nethicite!
 * Vossler: Sky pirates, the future of Dalmasca will not be stolen!
 * Prideful Archadian Boy: (if the player uses the Gate Crystal to enter Archades) I saw you come in on the gate crystal. An Ardent, aren't you. No upstanding gentry would use the things. Why leave the city anyway?
 * Airship Travel Agent: (said if the player has an esper in the party) I'm afraid we can't allow you to board the airship with this...companion. It could interfere with the ship's skystone.
 * Gilgamesh: Fools! You face the mightiest swordsman in all Ivalice! You face me -- Gilgamesh! Long have I sought the blade of legend; scoured have I the furthest marches, east and west; and now my search brings me here, to you! Your weapons are forfeit to me! Fly, Enkindu! Fly, my faithful companion! I said FLY!
 * Cid: (when using "S-27 Tokamak") (pulls out the S-27 Tokamak) I'm afraid your time here is over! (charges) The curtain falls. (fires) Farewell! (laser hits the crystals, releasing a wall of fire) Ah-hahahahaha-haaaaaa!!!
 * Cid: And lo! How brightly burned their lanthorn! Casts it back the shadow of Occurian design! Testament that Man's history shall be his alone!
 * Bangaa in Rabanastre: My friend says that o'er 430 revelers came through the Southern Plaza during the big fete! But even if you count the bards... 'Course, he could be countin' the spoony bards, too. That would be another matter altogether. (this is a reference to Tellah's quote from Final Fantasy IV)
 * Viera in Eruyt Village: It is because the spring remains apart that the flowers bloom.
 * Stairbottom Elder in Old Archades: Word travels fast in this town. New information is born, grows old, and dies in a day.

Dialogue

 * Basch: How old are you, Reks?
 * Reks: Seventeen, sir.
 * Basch: Young. Family?
 * Reks: My brother is all I have left, sir. He's two years younger than I, living in Rabanastre.
 * Basch: So young. You're barely old enough to be a man, you shouldn't be forced to wield a sword.
 * Reks: No, sir. I want to fight. For my homeland and for my parents.

 * [Penelo takes the pouch Vaan stole]
 * Vaan: Hey, that's mine!
 * Penelo: What do you mean, yours? You've been stealing again! What happens if they catch you? We need you to be there for us, Vaan. You've not good to anyone if you're locked away in a dungeon!
 * Vaan: What, so I'm the leader, now? [sighs] We're orphans. The first thing you learn is that you watch out for yourself. Come on, Penelo. You know it as well as I do. [sees going through the pouch] Hey, you give that back! What do you think you're doing?!
 * Penelo: I thought that this money was the people of Dalmasca's property? "The Imperials stole it from us, so it's only fair that we take it back. It's our duty as Dalmascans". Well? Wasn't that what you said? [holds up a pair of coins]
 * Vaan: Yeah, but...I never said anything about taking back from me! [snatches the pouch back]
 * Penelo: [indicating the coins] This is for that bread you took the other day. Just because I help Migelo out every now and then...It doesn't mean that you get to eat out for free too, you know!
 * Vaan: [softly] ...I know that. You think I like living like this? [an airship flies over them. Vaan stares at it.] One of these days, I'll fly an airship of my own. I'll be a sky pirate, free to go where I will.
 * [Penelo smiles at Vaan without him noticing, then walks away]
 * Penelo: Well, be careful; You'll never fly anything if you're rotting in a dungeon!

 * Balthier: Quite a performance.
 * Vaan: Who are you?!
 * Balthier: I play the leading man. Who else? Fran, the magicite.
 * Fran: Now then, I'll take that.
 * Vaan: No you won't! I found it, it's mine!
 * Balthier: And when I take it from you, it will be mine.

 * [Vaan takes off as Balthier and Fran have turn away]
 * Balthier: Exit stage right.
 * Fran: The gods do not smile upon us.
 * Balthier: I like it better that way.

 * Vaan: [grips the Dusk Shard] Don't even think you're getting this.
 * Balthier: The thought never crossed my mind.

 * Balthier: [after the Dusk Shard glows] Oh, now isn't that impressive?
 * Vaan: Don't get any ideas. I told you, it's mine.
 * Balthier: I'm afraid the jury's still out on that one.

 * Balthier: Ah, the prison repository of wrested relics and raiments.
 * Vaan: So, our things are in here?
 * Balthier: That's what I said.

 * Basch: Please, get me out, for the sake of Dalmasca.
 * Vaan: Dalmasca!? What do you care about Dalmasca!? Everything that happened was because of you! Everyone that's died, every single one! Even my brother! YOU KILLED MY BROTHER!

 * Balthier: Nice moves, Captain.
 * Vaan: [scathingly] You mean traitor.
 * Balthier: So they say, but I didn't see him kill anyone.
 * Vaan: My brother did.
 * [Basch looks up at Vaan]
 * Basch: [realising] Reks. [Vaan flinches] He mentioned he had a brother two years younger... I see, he meant you. Your brother, what became of him-?
 * Vaan: He's dead.
 * Basch: ...I'm sorry.
 * Vaan: It was you who killed him!
 * Basch: [firmly] I give you my word, that was not the way of it.

 * [Basch gives his version of the events of the treaty signing]
 * Balthier: A twin brother? Fancy that. Still, the pieces fit together, I'll give you that much. And he did look like you.
 * Vaan: I don't believe you.
 * Basch: Of course not. It was my fault Reks was there.
 * Vaan: My brother, he trusted you. He trusted you, and he lost everything. How can I believe you?
 * Basch: Not me, then. Believe in your brother. He was a fine solider. He fought to defend his homeland- No, surely he fought to defend his brother.
 * Vaan: [angrily] You don't know anything!
 * Balthier: Believe what you want to. Whatever it takes to make you happy. What's done is done.

 * [Basch watches a couple of children pass by him]
 * Vaan: A lot of kids lost their parents during the war. Mine... Mine died before that. The plague took them both.
 * Basch: I'm sorry. I didn't know.
 * Vaan: It's okay. It's been five years, now. After that, I stayed my friend Penelo and her family. Then... Then the war came.
 * Basch: I am sorry.
 * Vaan: [sighs] You don't have to keep apologising. I know it wasn't your fault. I see that now. You didn't kill my brother. It was the Empire. My brother, he trusted you...And he was right.

 * Ba'Gamnan: You've seen to her feeding, yes?
 * Rinok: I have, my brother. She eats well.
 * Ba'Gamnan: See that she does. We need her alive. Balthier's bait must be fresh.
 * Penelo: I keep trying to tell you! I barely know who Balthier is!
 * Bwagi: My brother! A message come from Rabanastre. The Strahl, she's set sail! She makes straight for the Skycity of Bhujerba!
 * Ba'Gamnan: Barely know, was it? Yet at a trice he goes bounding off for you! Tell me, how could that be?
 * Penelo: That's what I'd like to know! I just met him that one time-!
 * Ba'Gamnan: [he approaches Penelo] Does that tongue never stop? What if we plucked it from your head? [he turns to Rinok and Bwagi] As for you! We need Balthier alive! His corpse fetches but half the bounty!
 * [Ba'Gamnan starts walking away, and Rinok and Bwagi follow]
 * Bwagi: A tender beating, my specialty!
 * Rinok: There's no fun for it if we can't tease out a scream or two!
 * [they burst out laughing evilly]
 * Penelo: [she looks towards the window] Where are you?

 * Vaan: What are we waiting for?!
 * Balthier: For you to calm down.

 * Balthier: An Atomos? All skiff, no ship. Hardly fit for a leading man...
 * Vaan: [eagerly] So I can fly it, then?
 * Fran: Are you mad?

 * Penelo: You don't need to worry about me - I'm tougher than I look.
 * Basch: [chuckles] Indeed you are.

 * Fran attacks the guards]
 * Penelo: What's wrong with her?
 * Balthier: I always knew Fran didn't take well to being tied up. [Fran attacks another guard] I just never knew how much. How about you?
 * Ashe: I like Fran's idea, let's get out of here!
 * Vossler: No farther! [Assumes a fighting stance] Sky pirates, the future of Dalmasca will not be stolen! [Basch steps up] Why do this, Basch? This struggle is futile. You must know where it leads!
 * Basch: I do know. All too well.

 * Vaan: You saw him, didn't you? Like at the king's tomb.
 * Ashe: So you did see him, too! But why?
 * Vaan: It's strange; before, I didn't even know what you looked like. And the prince? I barely knew there was a prince. Who knows? Maybe the person I saw...was my brother.
 * Ashe: Basch told me about him.
 * Vaan: ...He enlisted, right at the end. But for what? He knew we couldn't win.
 * Ashe: To protect something.
 * Vaan: [angrily] How can he protect anything if he's dead?! Was it different for Prince Rasler? Did that make sense? [Ashe remains silent] Hating the Empire, getting revenge... It's all I ever thought about. But I never did anything about it. I mean, I realized there was nothing I could do. It made me feel hollow, alone. And then...I'd miss my brother. I'd say stuff like "I'm gonna be a sky pirate", or some other stupid thing. Just anything to keep my mind off it. I was just...I was running away. I needed to get away from his death. That's why I followed you. [pause] You know what? I'm through with it - I'm through running. I'm ready to find my purpose. To find some answers, some reasons. If I stick with you, I think I will. [smiles]
 * Ashe: I wish I knew...
 * Vaan: I'll find 'em.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Vaan: Fran, wait.
 * Fran: Yes?
 * Vaan: Uh, I was just wondering about what Jote said, y'konw? About you saying the same thing fifty years ago?
 * Fran: Your point?
 * Vaan: Um...How old were you again?
 * [Beat. Fran walks away]
 * Balthier: [sighs] Nice, Vaan.
 * [Everyone walks on]
 * Larsa: Surprisingly rude.
 * Penelo: Try to grow up, please.
 * [Vaan stares after them, confused]

<hr width=50%/>
 * (a line quoted from Final Fantasy Tactics.)
 * Vaan: I got a good feeling.
 * Larsa: This is the way.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Balthier: He made airships, weapons...even made me a Judge.
 * Ashe: [shocked] You were a... Judge?
 * Balthier: Part of a past I'd rather forget.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Ashe: But Venat-- Venat is an Occurian. A being like you.
 * Gerun: Venat is a heretic!

<hr width=50%/>
 * Gerun: We give you now the Stone and task. Administer judgement: destroy them all!
 * Ashe: Judgement? Destroy them all? The Empire?

<hr width=50%/>
 * Bergan: The Senate may play at intrigue, but Lord Vayne is not one to be brought down easily. The entire military waits upon his orders, from the War Council down to the rank and file. What better blade than he to strike down the enemies of the Empire?
 * Drace: [to Bergan from the shadow]) Your Honour reminds me of Zecht two years since. He, too, put his trust in Lord Vayne’s strength, and what became of him? Gone without a trace since Nabudis!
 * Bergan: I will not hear you malign Judge Zecht! He was a noble warrior. Or…do you think his trust in Lord Vayne ill-placed?
 * Drace: Vayne took two of his own brothers’ lives. He is ruthless beyond contempt.
 * Bergan: Ruthless you say? Would he were more so! He gives traitors no quarter, be they of his own blood! How fitting for one who would bear the burden of Empire.
 * Drace: But could we bear him? Zargabaath, what of you? Surely you do not believe… his brothers were traitors.
 * Zargabaath: So found His Excellency, Lord Gramis. You would do well to mind your tongue, Drace. That matter is long past.
 * Gabranth: Your Honors, a summons! Lord Vayne has arrived at the palace.
 * Zargabaath: We come at once.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Drace: Lord Larsa has left for Bur-Omisace. He hopes to enlist the aid of the Gran Kiltias in stopping the insurgents. I doubt this will be enough to deter Ondore… but even a slight hindrance to his operations would be welcome. This will delay the Rozarrian invasion… and we will have bought much-needed time to shore up our defences.
 * Gabranth: Just as His Excellency had hoped.
 * Drace: No matter the result, I am pleased with the young lord's progress. I can already see the stunned faces of those mud-witted senators. The fools think a child emperor’s strings easy to pull from the shadows… but they will find that Lord Larsa is no puppet.
 * Gabranth: Yes. The senators would be most pleased with a puppet for an emperor. Recall, Drace, how the Senate fears and despises Lord Vayne’s ability? When they realize the truth, that Lord Larsa is no docile lamb to be shepherded… they will bear their teeth and devour him.
 * Drace: You're right. I shall speak on this matter with His Excellency at once. Gabranth. It falls to us to protect Lord Larsa. Are we agreed?
 * Gabranth: Aye.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Drace: A viper amongst our Senators!?
 * Vayne: With Chairman Gregoroth as its head with what dignity remained him, he confessed the poisoning and passed his own sentence.
 * Bergan: A viper with many tails, much of the Senate is culpable.
 * Vayne: We have no choice but to strip the Senate of authority and assign powers of autocracy to myself until such time as order-
 * Drace: Spare me your lies! I see the serpent coiled here before me.
 * Zargabaath: Drace, you speak too freely.
 * Drace: Zargabaath, do not tell me you join in this mummer's farce!
 * Zargabaath: With Rozarria poised to invade at any moment, our leader must have a free hand.
 * Vayne: The once-great House Solidor is now reduced to myself, and my dear brother Larsa.
 * Drace: Surely you would not go so far. [draws sword at Vayne] Vayne Solidor! As Judge Magister and upholder of the law, I hereby place you under arrest!
 * Bergan: You misunderstand, Vayne did not make himself autocrat, it was the very Ministry of Law which you serve. Do you see it now, Drace? When you bared your sword at his excellency, you bared your sword at the law.
 * Drace: You wear the mummer's motley well, Bergan.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Drace: Such strength - Inhuman!
 * Vayne: Zargabaath, take the Alexander. You will accompany Bergan and bring Larsa back to me.
 * Zargabaath: Sire.
 * Gabranth: Your Excellency, Lord Larsa was placed under my charge.
 * Vayne: Oh? Perhaps you mistook your orders, then. I can see no other explanation for why you were reporting and conjecturing on my doings to my late father.
 * Gabranth: Your Excellency-
 * Vayne: A hound begging for scraps at the Emperor's table. Would you serve a new master, hound? You may fulfil your duty as Judge Magister before us all. She has been tried and found guilty.
 * Zargabaath: Your Excellency, I beg you reconsider.
 * [Gabranth hesitates]
 * Drace: Do it, I care not. Live, Gabranth. Protect the young lord. Protect Larsa...
 * Gabranth: Forgive me.
 * Drace: Pray be quick.
 * [Gabranth kills her]
 * Vayne: And so House Solidor lives on.

 * Vaan: So, this Jules...is he an old friend of yours, Balthier? You two seemed...close.
 * Balthier: Close enough for fisticuffs...Driver! Faster, if you please. I would be loath to expend any of the violence of my present mood on my companions.
 * Cabby: S-Sir? Yes, sir!

<hr width=50%/>
 * Balthier: Vaan, a word. [Vaan looks at him] If anything untoward should happen to me, you're taking the Strahl.
 * Vaan: Untoward? What's this about?
 * Balthier: I am the leading man. Might need to do something heroic. Don't worry, I'll show you how to fly her.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Ashe: Rasler. My Prince. Our time together was short. Yet I know this; You were not the kind to take base revenge! ''[swings sword at Rasler's ghost] The Rasler I knew is gone.
 * Occuria: You are our saint, Ashelia B'nargin! You must be the one to straighten history's weave! [is once again attacked, and fades away]
 * Ashe: [angrily] I am no false saint for you to use!
 * Vaan: Ashe...
 * Ashe: In all Dalmasca's history, not once did we rely on the Dusk Shard. Our people resolved never to use it, though their need might be dire...That was the Dalmasca I wanted back. [drops the Treaty Blade] To use the stone now would be to betray that. [turns to the others] I will destroy the Sun-Cryst. I will discard the stone!
 * Gabranth: So you claim no need of power? What of your broken kingdom's shame? The dead demand justice!
 * Vaan: You're wrong. [Gabranth stares at him, confused] What would change? I can't help my brother now. My brother's gone. [firmly] He's dead!
 * Ashe: Even with power, we cannot change what has passed. What's done is done. [drops the Dawn Shard]
 * Gabranth: Yet without power, what future can you claim? What good a kingdom you cannot defend?
 * Basch: Then I will defend Queen and Kingdom both!
 * Gabranth: Hah! Defend? You? You who failed Landis and Dalmasca? What can shame hope to keep safe? Your shield is shattered! Your oaths poison those you would protect!

<hr width=50%/> Dr. Cid: And lo! How brightly burned their lanthorn! Casts it back the shadow of Occurian design! Testament that Man's history shall be his alone!

 * Dr. Cid: Let him by, Venat. It is done. Ah, how I have enjoyed these six years.
 * Venat: The pleasure was all mine.
 * Balthier: [watching Cid fade away] Was there no other way?
 * Dr. Cid: Spend your pity elsewhere. If you are so set on running, hadn't you best be off, fool of a pirate?

 * Dr. Cid: Your greatest work still lies before you. Not lightly will the Occuria allow you to wrest the reins of history from their grasp, back into the hands of man.
 * Venat: Indeed. What claim does Gerun have on history's reins, seated on throne immortal, rent from time? For your ascendance, Vayne, I offer prayer. May you attain all that which is your due.
 * Vayne: Attain it I shall. For too long have my deeds gone unrewarded.

 * Vayne: I bid you welcome to my sky fortress, the Bahamut. I must apologize for my delay in welcoming you aboard my ship. Permit me to ask: who are you? An angel of vengeance? Or perchance a saint of salvation?
 * Ashe: I am simply myself. No more and no less. And I want only to be free.
 * Vayne: Such a woman is not fit to bear the burden of rule. Weep for Dalmasca, for She is lost. Observe well, Larsa. Watch and mark you the suffering of one who must rule, yet lacks the power.
 * Larsa: No. [holds a sword to Vayne's neck] No, brother. I will not. Though I lack your power, I will still persist.
 * Vayne: Bold words child.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Vayne: Venat! [Venat appears] I have failed us both. I am no Dynast-King. You must find another. One who might realize your ambitions.
 * Venat: They are fulfilled beyond your knowing. The Cryst is sundered, Age of Stones, complete. From the Undying ones the world is freed. You shall not tread this path alone. Together we go, come...

<hr width=50%/>
 * Ashe: Balthier! Do you understand exactly what it is you're doing?
 * Balthier: Princess! No need to worry. I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man? He never dies.

<hr width=50%/>
 * Fran: [As Balthier lends her aid] I would say that you're more like a ...'supporting' role.
 * Balthier: [chagrined] Fran, please.

Song lyrics

 * Go — I will give you wings to fly Cast all your fears into the sky Kiss me good-bye, love's mystery All of my life I'll hold you close to me Won't shed a tear for love's mortality For you put the dream in my reality
 * Kiss Me Good-Bye, theme song
