Mass Effect Quotes

**Killergold88** · March 23, 2012, 02:00 PM

There is no shortage of both amazing and funny moments in all the Mass Effect games, and ive seen similar threads on other forums, so i figured id start one here
what are your favorite quotes from any and all the Mass Effect games

Mine comes from Legion (being one of my favorite characters) in ME2 when you first talk to Jack abored the prison
Jack: "Im not going anywhere with you, you're Cerberus."
Sheppard: "Im here to be your friend, you dont want to be my enemy."
Legion: "There is a high statistical probablility of death by gun shot. A punch to the face is also likely."
I dont know why but the punch to the face part was just amazing

"Can it wait for a bit? I'm in the middle of some calibrations."

I guess I don't have to name the character with that line, right?

Sovereign: You are not Saren.
Garrus Vakarian: What is that? Some kind of VI interface?
Sovereign: Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.
Garrus Vakarian: I don't think this is a VI...
Sovereign: There is a realm of existence so far beyond your own you cannot even imagine it. I am beyond your comprehension. I am Sovereign.
Commander Shepard: Sovereign isn't just some Reaper ship Saren found. It's an actual Reaper!
Sovereign: Reaper? A label created by the Protheans to give voice to their destruction. In the end, what they chose to call us is irrelevant. We simply... are.
Garrus Vakarian: The Protheans vanished over 50,000 years ago. You couldn't have been there, it's impossible!
Sovereign: Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident. Your lives are measured in years and decades. You wither and die. We are eternal, the pinnacle of evolution and existence. Before us, you are nothing. Your extinction is inevitable. We are the end of everything.
Commander Shepard: Whatever your plan is, it's going to fail. I'll make sure of that.
Sovereign: Confidence born of ignorance. The cycle cannot be broken.
Tali'Zorah nar Rayya: Cycle? What cycle?
Sovereign: The pattern has repeated itself more times than you can fathom. Organic civilizations rise, evolve, advance, and at the apex of their glory they are extinguished. The Protheans were not the first. They did not create the Citadel. They did not forge the mass relays. They mere found them - the legacy of my kind.
Commander Shepard: Why would you construct the mass relays and leave them for someone else to find?
Sovereign: Your civilization is based on the technology of the mass relays. Our technology. By using it, your civilization develops along the paths we desire. We impose order on the chaos of organic life. You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it.
Tali'Zorah nar Rayya: They're harvesting us! Letting us advance to the level they need, then wiping us out!
Commander Shepard: What do you want from us? Slaves, resources?
Sovereign: My kind transcends your very understanding. We are each a nation - independent, free of all weakness. You cannot grasp the nature of our existence.
Commander Shepard: Where did you come from? Who built you?
Sovereign: We have no beginning. We have no end. We are infinite. Millions of years after your civilization has been eradicated and forgotten, we will endure.
Commander Shepard: Where are the rest of the Reapers? Are you the last of your kind?
Sovereign: We are legion. The time of our return is coming. Our numbers will darken the sky of every world. You cannot escape your doom.
Commander Shepard: You're not even alive! Not really. You're just a machine, and machines can be broken!
Sovereign: Your words are as empty as your future. I am the Vanguard of your destruction. This exchange is over...

**Killergold88** · March 23, 2012, 04:08 PM

**Tankfriend** · March 23, 2012, 04:22 PM

Wrex: "Shepard."
Shepard: "Wrex."

**The Edain** · March 23, 2012, 04:35 PM

Damn, all my favourite ones have been taken!

Except..

Tali: Shepard! I'm toasting Miranda...I think.
Shepard: How are you getting drunk?
Tali: Very carefully, Turian brandy, triple filtered. Then introduced into the suit through an emergency induction port.
Shepard: That's a straw, Tali.

**Okuto** · March 23, 2012, 04:56 PM

-......if I told them that they'd lynch you

-That is a inefficient manner to render me non functional.....

Tali: "Emergency..... Induction.... Port...."

Oh, and not to forget the quote of the entire series, in various variants:
Shepard: "I have to go."
Shepard: "I should go."

Or this:
Joker: "You know, it's not like we're invisible, or something. They could just look out the window and spot us right there."
Legion: "Windows are structural weaknesses. Geth do not use them. Approach station from the following vector."
Joker: *queue "The Robot"*

Or:
Joker: "Don't worry Commander, things will definitely work out much better this time."
Shepard: "I hope so. I died."
Joker: "Gah, you're such a downer..."

"Salvation comes with a cost. Judge us not by our methods but by what we seek to accomplish." -The Illusive Man

Garrus Vakarian being badass again. IMO, he is Shep's most loyal friend.

And not a single

was given that day...

"Anybody got something to eat?"-Grunt

Mostly ME3 quotes, that's what comes to my mind right now.

"just once id like to hear someone say yes certainly ill help you save the galaxy, just let me grab my stuff" - sheppard

"you mean we can disobey suicidal orders? why wasnt i told?" - garrus

this entire speach... "it means sir isaac newton is the deadliest son-of-a-* in space"

i have ME2 quotes stuck in my head even though im playing ME3 for the second time, not sure why

**Magicman2051** · March 23, 2012, 11:50 PM

Anything said by Legion throughout ME3.

Shepard: Wasn't that the same rifle you use?
Legion: It is... an efficient model.

ok a mass effect 3 quote, more like a convo, if you dont hook up with Tali or change the relationship to someone else, her and Garrus have a little thing, and you can walk in on it towards the end of the game and the convo they have is pretty good

Tali: "oh!"
Garrus: "Well we uh.. we were just..."
Tali: "Well i, uh i came to say good bye and uh well"
Garrus: "uh eh ju eh i um i think one of my mandibles got hooked... on her... helmet"
Tali: "Yea, it might have caused a rupture so i asked him to check"
Garrus: "Well yea, you know because of uh infection risks, didnt want to jeopordize the mission..."
Tali: "Sooo"
Garrus: "Umm, yea"
Sheppard: "Im really happy for you"
Tali: "Thanks"
Garrus: Thanks, guess it helps to have something to come back to"
Tali: "Mmm what do you mean come back to? This is just a fling, im using you for your body"
Garrus: " Youre so mean.... and im ok with that"

+1 Geth consensus was my favourite mission in the game. Made me sympathise with the Geth even more.

On topic though, to quote our dear Scientist Salarian "Had to be me...someone else might have gotten it wrong"

EDI: "Do not worry Shepard, I only ever forget to recycle the Normandy's oxygen if I discover something truely interesting."
Shepard: *utterly shocked expression*
EDI: "That was a joke."
