Mass Effect 2

"[when Mordin asks him/her to distribute a cure] Just once I'd like to ask someone for help and hear them say, "Sure. Let's go. Right now. No strings attached.""

"I’ve had enough of your disingenuous assertions! [punches reporter in the face, possibly after doing the same in the first game; if not, adds: I should have done this the first time we met]"

"[when asked to surrender all weapons upon entering a prison ship] I'll relinquish one bullet. Where do you want it?"

"The Collectors attacked our ship. They took our crew, our friends. They think we're helpless. They're wrong. They started a war, but we're not here to finish it. We're here to make them regret -- to show them and everyone else what happens when you go too far. No more running, no more waiting. Let's hit them where they live."

"They tell me it's a suicide mission. I intend to prove them wrong."

"I'm Commander Shepard and this is my favorite store on the Citadel. [repeatedly, in up to 4 stores]"

"[being chewed out by the Illusive Man for destroying the Collector Base] I'm sorry, I'm having trouble hearing you. I'm getting a lot of bullshit on this line."

"Harbinger is coming and he won't be alone. I'm going to make sure we're ready when he gets here. You can fall in line or step aside, but don't get in my way."

"I'm going to stop the Reapers, but I won't sacrifice the soul of our species to do it."

"[Alternative] I'm going to do exactly what you brought me back to do: I'm going to win this war, and I'll do it without sacrificing the soul of our species."

"You kill people because you think they're beneath you; I kill people when they leave me no choice."

"Hell, Garrus, you were always ugly. Slap some face paint on there and no one will even notice."

"[ordering a sixth drink at a Citadel bar] Hell yeah... put more of the stuff in the... the thing where stuff goes in."

"[after catching Conrad Verner threatening a bartender; while holding him at gunpoint] Conrad, let me make this perfectly clear. [starts lowering the weapon, but suddenly shoots him in the foot] This is not acceptable."

"I was only "mostly dead". Try finding that option on government paperwork."

"You don't get to just walk away, lady. Unlike Conrad, I actually know how to use a gun."

"The Collectors are about to find out what happens when you piss me off."

"[after the Illusive Man knowingly sends the ship into a trap] You have one job - information. If I can't trust your intel you're useless to me."

"Once we're inside, they're going to throw everything they have at us. If we're weak, if we're slow, if we hesitate...then we'll die."

"We don't know how many the Collectors have stolen. Thousands, hundreds of thousands. It's not important. What matters is this: Not. One. More. That's what we can do here, today. It ends with us. They want to know what we're made of? I say we show them, on our terms. Let's bring our people home."

"[Upon leaving a conversation] I should go."

"[On trusting the Illusive Man] I don't trust anyone who makes more than I do."

"Commander can you believe this?! It's my baby, she's better than new, fits me like a glove! And leather seats!"

"And there's the down-side. I liked the Normandy when she was beautiful and quiet. Now she's got this thing I don't want to talk about. It's like ship-cancer."

"What's the point of being a corporate ship if you can't inflate your numbers?"

"Hey, Commander, we got Garrus back! That's great, because he was... totally my favorite! With that pole up his ass."

"It's nice to have Tali back, just like old times. I mean, it is her, right? Because how can you tell with that helmet and...ah, never mind."

"[After recruiting Jack] Okay, Shepard, glad you're back, but keep an eye on that last one. We can only hold so much crazy."

"[After recruiting Samara] So, Commander, even your asari are trained killers? You get everyone at the same store or something?"

"[After recruiting Thane] Oh, another dangerous alien aboard, Commander. Thanks. Why can’t you collect coins or commemorative plates or something?"

"[After recruiting Grunt] You collect stray cats as a kid, Commander? Because the last thing we needed was a big ultra-krogan on board, so thanks for bringing him along."

"[After recruiting Legion] So yeah. Geth. On the ship. Geth...we’re all fricking insane."

"You know, Commander, I’m not real broke up that Wrex isn’t coming. I’m good with our current amount of headbutting. I’d say we’re at headbutting capacity."

"[After Miranda's loyalty mission] So Commander... you think Miranda could ever lighten up a bit and... Ahaha, I can’t even finish saying it."

"[After Jacob's loyalty mission] So, all that stuff with Jacob's dad, that's all bullshit, right? Because it sounded like bullshit to me."

"[After Samara's loyalty mission] I’m glad things worked out, Commander. I was worried you’d dump Samara for some crazy soul-sucker with a death fetish, all lithe and sexy and... never mind. [Shepard may have done exactly that]"

"This is all Joker's fault! What a tool he was! I have to spend all day computing pi because he plugged in the Overlord!"

"[When the Normandy is overtaken by Collectors; EDI requests Joker giving her command of the entire ship] You're crazy! You start singing "Daisy Bell" and I'm done!"

"Yeah, go pout, I win."

"Great, I just got worked by the intercom."

"[About EDI's Anti-Reaper algorithims, obtained from Sovereign's wreckage] If this thing starts calling itself the "vanguard of our destruction", I call shotgun on the first life boat."

"[blasts away at the Collector ship that destroyed the first Normandy with a reverse-engineered Reaper weapon] How d'you like that, you sons-of-bitches?!"

"Grunt is... not a stabilizing element, Commander."

"I'm not going to say anything about Miranda. I'm not sure I could survive the reprisal."

"I won't say anything about Jack. I'm not stupid."

"Jacob's too nice a guy for all the different ways he knows how to kill people."

"It seems like Garrus has finally worked that stick out of his butt but now he's trying to beat guys to death with it. I can't believe I liked the old Garrus better."

"And Thane seems like the strong, sensitive... murdering type? You know, those are always good to have around. A real cuddler."

"Good for now. Fractured my thumb on the mute, but I think I made my point."

"[From trailer] We have to give everything, even if that means our lives. We will stop at nothing. We will fight for the lost."
