Can you guess a game from a line of dialogue? (thread game)

[Kerg3927]

"Either you have an enviable memory, or a pitiable life, to know nothing of regret."

"Stand in the ashes of a trillion dead souls and ask the ghosts if honor matters. The silence is your answer."

"Loss frightens me to no end. Loss of memory, loss of self. If I were told that by killing you, I would be freed of this curse... then I would draw my sword without hesitation. I don't want to die, I want to exist. I would sacrifice anything, anything at all for this. It shames me, but it is the truth. ... Sometimes I feel obsessed... with this insignificant thing called "self." But even so, I am compelled to preserve it. Am I wrong to feel so? Surely you'd do the same, in my shoes? ... Maybe we are all cursed... from the moment we're born."

 

[immortalfrieza]

No, not just an urge, more than that. It was my destiny to be here, in the box.

"What? Say something! Am I so beautiful that you've no words left?"

This sounds so familiar but I can't place it... and googling it is no fun.

That's from The Old Republic, right? I can't place the other two, though.

Kingdom Hearts 2, Auron & Hades

You were lurking in this topic just waiting for somebody to quote Auron, weren't you?

"I hope you haven't forgotten my role in this little story. I'm the leading man. You know what they say about the leading man. He never dies."

"The old man was trying to tell the future, looking for pictures in the campfire" "Ooooh I seeeee evil!"

Heh, this quote from mine:

They don't make animations like THAT anymore.

was directly referencing this game. A few lines before it says "Nobody tells ROBERT FOSTER what to do, lady!"

That one was too subtle for me.

It's an easter egg from Broken Sword II: The Smoking Mirror where secondary protagonist Nico stumbles into a scene from Beneath a Steel Sky. I was so happy when I found it, way back in 1997. I even wrote to a bunch of gaming magazines telling them how to find it. None of them published my letter.


Couple more, rather famous, quotes:

"There was a time I would do anything for my sister, I mean the first time I ever killed was for my sister."

"I was just finishing up my twelfth hour on patrol when I got the call. Welcome relief considering that the most action I had seen all night was a schizoid grandmother doing the shimmy in her underwear in the second sector."

 

[Auron225]

"This is my story and you're not part of it."
"Did you forget who you're talking to? I am the lord of the dead!"

I actually wasn't But I can certainly see why it looks that way!

Also, that quote is from Balthier (FFXII), right?
