Final Fantasy VIII

"I'm more complex than you think."

"Everyone has to take care of themselves. I don't want to carry anyone's burden."

"I had a dream, too. It wasn't nice though... I dreamt I was a moron..."

"We're not gophers...We're SeeD...special forces."

"Approach your target inconspicuously at a dance party... There may be missions requiring this sort of subterfuge. It's expected of SeeD to know various skills."

"This is so typical. Adults reminiscing and talking on and on about the things they couldn't do or didn't do... I hate it."

"Reality isn't so kind. Everything doesn't work out the way you want it to. That's why... As long as you don't get your hopes up, you can take anything... You feel less pain."

"I don't believe in relying on others."

"...Sis... I'm...all alone. But I'm doing my best... I'll be ok without you, Sis. I'll be able to take care of myself."

"...I didn't turn out ok at all."

"Seifer... You've become just a memory. Will they... Will they talk about me this way if I die, too? Squall was this and that. Using past tense, saying whatever they want? So this is what death is all about... ...Not for me. I won't have it!!!"

"Right and wrong are not what separate us and our enemies. It's our different standpoints, our perspectives that separate us. Both sides blame one another. There's no good or bad side. Just two sides holding different views."

"Just stay close to me."

"I don't mind fighting the sorceress. It's unavoidable as long as I'm a SeeD member. What? As long as I'm a SeeD member? What if I quit? Quit... Then what? What do I have left? Don't even want to think about it. Just stop thinking..."

"Did I say something terrible? Women... I don't understand them."

"The true...goal of SeeD... To spread... seeds all over the world... ...Flower... Fill the world with flowers."

"I hate having nothing to do. It gets me thinking too much."

"...This guy needs to grow up."

"I feel like a helpless puppet being manipulated in some major scheme."

"Why do people depend on each other? In the end you're on your own. I'm fine by myself now. I have all the skills I need to survive. I'm not a child anymore... That's a lie. I don't know anything. I'm confused. I don't want to depend on anyone. How can I do that? Someone tell me... Someone? So I'll end up depending on others after all..."

"No argument there. Trite, and dull as hell, though."

"I wish...everything could be settled without resorting to violence... and there would be no need for battles. Like you've been preaching, it would be wonderful if things could be settled by discussion. The only problem with that is that it takes too much time. Especially if the others are not willing to listen. So I believe that fighting is inevitable at times. It's really sad. That's all I have to say. I hope you understand someday. I think the world needs both people like you and people like us."

"Am I that untrusting...? Maybe I'm this way because I'm scared. Nothing lasts in this world. It feels great to have friends who believe in you, and adults you can rely on. That's why it's so dangerous, especially if you become used to it. Someday you're bound to lose everything. Everyone around you will be gone. Then what are you left with? Nothing. Nobody... It's so miserable. And it's inevitable. It's so hard to recover from something like that. I never ever want to deal with that again. I can't. Even if it means being alone..."

"...I don't need you to understand me."

"Forget it. I don't want friends who won't be around tomorrow."

"...A speech? Forget it. Cut the mic!"

"... ... Everybody, this is Squall. How's everyone doing? You're all probably too tired to even stand up after all the fighting. But I want everyone to listen to me... We still have a chance to win, and I need your help. This is going to be our final battle. We're going to attack them before they come in again. To do that, we're going to head straight into their Garden. So I want everyone to prepare for a major collision. Take care of all the junior classmen. Irvine, Quistis, Zell and Selphie will lead the attack into their Garden. As for everyone else, please support them if you can. SeeD was formed to fight the sorceress; at least, that's what I heard. And Garden was created to train SeeDs. So this battle is Garden's destiny and also our destiny. It's a grueling battle, and I'm sure you guys are all exhausted. But I don't want to have any regrets. I don't want anyone to look back and regret this day. So just this once, I want you guys to give everything you've got! For yourselves, and for me!"

"First time we met was the day I became a SeeD. We met again... in Timber... We had a lot of arguments at first. But in time, things began to change. You were looking at me... You smiled when our eyes met. It made me feel calm, tranquil. Rinoa... Give me another chance."

"What do you think? To tell you the truth... I worry too much about what others think of me. I hate that side of me... That's why I didn't want anyone to get to know me. I wanted to hide that side of myself. I hate it. Squall is an unfriendly, introverted guy. It made it easy for me when people perceived me that way. That's a secret between you and me. Got that?"

"GOD!!!!!! Rinoa is gonna die! ...I can't take it. Ellone, please. I've never felt this way in my life."

"This is like talking to a wall."

"I've come this far because I've... fallen for you."

"Rinoa...... Even if you end up as the world's enemy, I'll... I'll be your knight."

"Everything will be fine now... Because I'm not alone. If I call out... They will answer."

"I'll be here. I'll be waiting for you. If you come here, you'll find me. I promise."

"You're-going-to-like-me! You're-going-to-like-me! Did it work?"

"Act on my decision? That's your duty? Oh, what an easy life it must be, just to follow orders..."

"Do you actually have fun acting so callous towards your comrades?"

"You're still a teenager. Why don't you act like one for a change?"

"Ohh, a naughty magazine."

"There are no guarantees in the future. That's why TODAY, the time we have now, is important."

"Squall? You have to voice your feelings or else I won't understand."

"I guess...I'm getting scared. Sometimes...when I'm with all of you... I...feel like we're on the same wavelength......you know? But when the battles start happening, it's different. Everyone's tempo seems to pick up and... ...I get left behind. I try to catch up, but it's no use... How far is everyone going? I can't hear anyone... Once I catch up, I wonder... Is everyone safe? Will they welcome me with open arms? ......Is everyone ok? Will we all make it back together?"

"I don't want the future. I want the present to stand still. I just want to stay here with you..."

"D-Do you have any...hot dogs left?"

"Why you bein' so selfish!? Scrooooge!"

"Chicken-wuss!?"

"Geronimoooooo!!!"

"This is my house. But don't make yourselves too comfortable!"

"...Whatever."
