Easy: "Wake me.... when you need me"

"Do I take life or give it? Who is victim, and who is foe?"

I find this extremely thought provoking: It's not right for any race to deny another's existence. That's what we are doing to the Flood.

But it is also not right for the Flood to deny our existence, either.

John: This is Spartan 117. Can anyone hear me?
Lord Hood: Isolate that signal. Master Chief, you mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?
John: Sir, finishing this fight.

Marine 1: Someone called the Prophet of Regret has arrived on Earth
Marine 2: Why the hell is he called the Prophet of Regret
Johnson: Because we're gonna make him regret attacking this planet, regret us destroying his raggity fleet and he's gonna regret us kicking his ass

shoot or be shot, the rule of all shooters
unless your a noob, and if thats so, I hate you

Some of mine are when the IWHBYD skull was on with Arby or Spark:

Arby:
"Well that sucks, but come." - After Johnson dies.

"Do you require mental help?"
Spark:
"You are pissing me off!! Oh my! I didn't know I had cursing in my vocal structure."

"I WILL teleport you to the library if you continue." If shot at enough by a Player.

But I still love,

Prophet of Truth: "I...am...Truth! The voice of the Covenant!"

Thel 'Vadam: "And so, you must be silenced."

Shape without form, shade without colour,
Paralysed force, gesture without motion;
Those who have crossed
With direct eyes, to death's other Kingdom
Remember us - if at all - not as lost

"Do I give life, or take it? Who is victim, and who is foe...?"

i like all of the gravemind lines, my favourite is:

Cortana- "what.. is that"
Gravemind- "I...? I am the monument, to all, your sins"
Me- "Jeebus"?

I liked it when gravemind rhymed, it was cool
Marine 1: Someone called the Prophet of Regret has arrived on Earth
Marine 2: Why the hell is he called the Prophet of Regret
Johnson: Because we're gonna make him regret attacking this planet, regret us destroying his raggity fleet and he's gonna regret us kicking his ass

and i remember it more along the lines of:
Cortana- "the message just repeats, regret, regret regret"
Miranda-"any idea what it means?"
Johnson-"dear humanity, we regret being alien bastards, we regret ever coming to earth, and we most certainly regret the corps just blew up our raggity ass fleet"

the name of the first checkpoint was, 'they'll regret that too'

There isn't much more to say than that really.

I'm going to be a little different and give a Halo Wars quote.

"Buggers, headin' over the rooftops!"

"I need a weapon."

"That's all Harvest is today. It's hell down there. . . but it's our hell."

That line just had a lot of gravity to it, in my opinion.


What?

"That's all Harvest is today. It's hell down there. . . but now it's ours again."

That's what he says.

"Halo doesn't kill Flood, it kills their food."


Lame.


I don't really know. Maybe:

Cortana-"Halo.... it's finished"
Chief- "No, I think where just getting started...."

It left me wide eyed when I first beat CE. Years later I would think back on that moment as the understatement of the year.

That was one of the greatest plot twists in Halo history. Come on now.

but this one's funny
SPARTAN-117: "Sir..."
SPARTAN-117: "...Permission to leave the station."
Lord Hood: "For what purpose, Master Chief?"
SPARTAN-117: "To give the Covenant back their bomb."


This, in my opinion, is the most badass line ever uttered. And he actually gives them back their bomb, ghetto stomping it into the reactor of a Covenant Carrier, blowing it up and preventing it from dropping off millions of troops.


i know! :D
and "Ladies like armor plating"
is a funny one(from halo 2 the bridge level when they drop of the tank)

-blam!- GTFO OF MY SIGNATURE

"This cave is not a natural formation"

"I need a weapon"

"We got Jackals in the courtyard!"

I like these, but the final quote from the 2004 E3 demo was the most epic IMO.

"Betcha can't stick it"

"You're on"

Serina: This is all part of the plan right guys?

followed by: Am I the only one freaked out that we're *inside* the planet?

And Cortana: Keep your head down, there's two of us in here now.

What can I say? I've got a thing for sarcastic AI's

  • 05.25.2010 6:54 AM PDT

...To war.

HAHAHAHA YEAH RIGHT! Worst line I've ever heard. I nearly took the disk out at that point. Shame the rest of the story was so good that I had to see it resolved.

"When I joined the corps we didn't have any fancy shmancy tanks! We had sticks! Two sticks and a rock for the whole platoon! And we had to SHARE the rock!"

No, I'm not perfect, but I have the feeling you're the kind of person who is used to meeting imperfect people on the internet.

"Oh, I know what the ladies like."


This^^

The whole dialog was the funniest of all of Halo next to Johnson's Halo: CE intros.

Cortana: Thanks for the tank, HE never brings me anything...
Johnson: Ohhhh, I know what the ladies like..

Yes, I'm a furry. And yes, I like men. So what?

Im sorry guys but i just have to do this.

Terminal 7


" You don't know the contortions I had to go through to follow you here, Reclaimer. I know what you're here for. What position do I take? Will I follow one betrayal with another?

You're going to say I'm making a habit of turning on my masters.

But the one that destroyed me long ago, in the upper atmosphere of a world far distant from here, was an implement far cruder than I. My weakness was capacity - unintentional though it was! - to choose the Flood. A mistake my makers would not soon forgive.

But I want something far different from you, Reclaimer.

Atonement.

And so here at the end of my life, I do once again betray a former master. The path ahead is fraught with peril. But I will do all I can to keep it stable - keep you safe. I'm not so foolish to think this will absolve me of my sins. One life hardly balances billions.

But I would have my masters know that I have changed.

And you shall be my example.
"

I completely agree the terminals fleshed out the epic backstory of the forerunner flood war and it isn't noticed by most of the casual fans. But for people who enjoy the canon like myself this just shows how much detail bungie puts into their story lines.

On the lighter side of quotes my favorite Johnson quote:
"When I joined the corps we didn't have any fancy shmancy tanks! We had sticks! Two sticks and a rock for the whole platoon! And we had to SHARE the rock!"
EPIC
