I need quotes for something. Please help me, I can't think of any.
The most classic one ever. "I Garland, shall knock you all down!"
There's also one famous one from Unne. "Everybody knows me. What?! You've never heard of Dr. Unne?"
And another classic from the gaurds. "Welcome to Corneria."
"WARRIORS! Revive the power of the ORBS!"
FFIIj actually pokes fun at it (or at least the NES/ROM translator did).
Townsperson in Phin: "WARRIORS! Revive the power of the ORBS!"
Gus/Guy: "Shut up!"
EDIT:
"This door is locked by the MYSTIC KEY." :P
"Everybody knows me. What?! You've never heard of Dr. Unne?"
"Lu... pa... ? Lu... pa... ?" - the citizens of Lefein until you learn their language
Some others:
"I am Arylon, the Dancer!" - Arylon
"May Link rest in peace." - a tombstone in Elfland
"Ho, ho, ho... how foolhardy to dare challenge me, KRAKEN the FIEND of the water." - Kraken
"Kraken, Fiend of Water, is a joke. A one-eyed squirrel armed with a piece of wet spaghetti could kill 20 Krakens before it needed to heal itself." - Dr Unne's boss guide
"You have legs!" - someone in Onrac
"The TAIL of a rat proves your courage. I shall give you the honor due true warriors." - Bahamut
Thanks for the quotes so far.
Bless the crystals
The one of Bahumet is the funniest by far.
Thank god for bad, inaccurate translations.
"I, Garland, shall knock you all down!"
From SoC in DoS, "Trespassers will be burninated!"
"tceles B hsup"- Matoya's broom.
"My name is Kope. I saw it north, near the waterfall. Believe me! I think it was a robot."- Kope of Onrac (from the best version of ff1- the original nes version.)
i noticed someone posted the tombstone quote. i was kinda found of the version that read here lies eddrick, instead of link. i had, and still have, more respect for zelda than dragon warriors/quest. but ofcourse, it's only logical that they changed it to link for the remakes on ps1 and game boy since square and enix had merged.
:choc2:
I don't know if you still need this or whatever, and this may be a spoiler, but here's what Garland says at the end of the game.
(SPOILER)"Remember me, Garland? Your
puny lot thought it had defeated me.
But, the Four FIENDS sent me back 2000
years into the past.
"From here I sent the Four FIENDS to
the future. The FIENDS will send me
back here, and the Time-Loop will
go on.
"After 2000 years, I will be forgotten,
and the Time-Loop will close. I will
life forever, and you shall meet your doom!!"
At this point Garland turns into Chaos, and if you're not prepared, he will mulch your party.
I just finally beat the NES version myself. I've seen the ending countless times, but I was never the one actually playing the game... so... victory for me! yay!
try standing in front of a car without being knocked down.
garlands speech at the end is probably the best.
ill post the one from the GBA version soon.
EDIT:
(SPOILER)???: well? do you remember me? at one time i was a knight of cornelia
light warriors: !
???: two thousand years into the future i was slain by you...
yes. my name is garland.
garland: you defeated me then. but the four great forces saved me by casting me back through time. once here i sent the four fiends into the future... it will be them that harness the great forces to send me safely into the past.
in two thousand years, i shall know none of this.
*turns into chaos*
chaos: but i will be reborn here again. so even as you die, over and over, i shall always return! return to this endless circle that i have created!
*fight starts.*
"Okay, ya got me. Take me ship".
~Bikke the Pirate in Pravoka
that i never new. but it does make sence. i thought they did edrick since enix's dragon quest was the main rival for rpgs. and i thought they changed it to link for the ps1 and gba remakes, since square soft and enix merged.
here's another quote. it's from when you talk to the well.
"This is a well. You might think that there is something to it... But in fact it is just an ordinary well."
"Ye must have cannonballs of steel to challenge me!"
Bikke the Pirate in Pravoka
"All who live were born to die."
- The Vampire
Actually, he went on to say a ton of less impressive trash. But this first line is gold.
"Is it you, the tinder that defeated the Fiend of the Earth?"
- Kary
It's a really nice metaphor. You can't deny it. Again, Kary's speech fails after that, but not quite so bad as the Vampire's.
Also, it must be noted that I LIKED and never really found anything funny about Garland's line, "Light Warriors, you impertinent Fools! I Garland, shall knock you all down!"
Never before had I heard the word Impertinent, and it seems to be a very good way to insult somebody as important as a LIGHT WARRIOR. He called them impertinent fools. That's about right. It's about the opposite of what they turned out to be.
And "Knock you all down." What's funny about that. That's common terminology. If you're fighting and you get KOd or busted up or whatever, you also probably get knocked down.
It isn't funny. It isn't stupid. It isn't bad translation. It's actually very good translation. And it's a very good quote that expresses extreme confidence.
And so I'll say it again, as a great quote from Final Fantasy.
"Light Warriors! You impertinent fools! I, Garland, shall knock you all down!
- Garland
In my GBA version, Garland says "I, Garland, will cut you down to size!"
A more accurate, but far less memorable translation.
I can't believe this hasn't been mentioned yet. I died laughing.
"I'm Jim. I'm a farmer."
"A SLAB!!
This SLAB will lead us to solve the riddle of the Lefeinish!!
Now, listen to me...."
"Transporter operation requires a CUBE"
The greatest quote of FFI:
"Nuke" -The Black Wizard
Thank you..That is all.
I can't believe it. We shopkeepers are ignored so often! Quotes by my favorite multi-body friend...
"Who
will
learn
the
spell?"
And
"You
Can't
Afford
That."
"Too bad
...
Some-
thing
else?"
And also, my absolute favorite...
"Nothing here" ~ Quoth the air before you.
its a throw up between Bahamut's rat tail quote or the farmer quote for sure :P
garland aint that funny...
We're such a bad bunch of people. How the hell could all of us overlook this:
My legs are beautiful! It's so nice to have legs.
