• What ARE you two doing? I thought you said something about a nice little slideshow?
  • Said at the end of the "Slideshow" ending
  • During the course of the actual game, Crono never talks

• Machines aren't capable of evil. Humans make them that way.

• All of our history... our art and science... All to meet the needs of that... beast.

• Nothing can beat science!

• Even a door of this caliber can't keep science at bay!

• Where have they been keeping her!?
  • Referring to Ayla

• Lower thine guard and thou'rt allowing the enemy in.

• Mine name is Glenn! Cyrus' hopes and dreams…and now the Masamune, these will now become my burden! Forthwith I will slay Magus and restore honor!

• Thou hast lost thy friend before thine eyes; there art no words to comfort thee.

• We have'th our own will!
  • When facing Lavos

• Ma'am, thou'rt mistaken, I'm not a pet, I'm a Knight and master swordsman.
  • When Crono's mom called him Crono's "pet".

• Thou'rt here to save the Queen?

• The lair is deep within. Will thee accompany me?

• My guise doth not incur thy trust...

• Mayhap a hidden door lurks nigh? Let us search the environs.

• 'Tis a feisty crowd! But they are thine kin, and 'tis of consequence.

• Queen Leene awaits. Your Majesty, we too shall take our leave.

• ...Long farewells ne'er were nessecary.

• Ayla fight while alive! Win and live. Lose and die. Rule of life. No change rule.
• Old man breathe, but dead on inside!
  • After a village elder tells her to surrender to the reptites.
• Ayla's word! "La" mean fire. "Vos" mean big.

  • As Robo tries to explain what a robot is
• Yummy frog! For Ayla eat?
  • A question in reference to Frog when he awakens

• I... it's that stupid frog! Kissed any princesses lately?!

• The black wind howls... One among you will shortly perish...
  • Janus (Magus as a child, in the year 12,000 B.C.)

  • To Lavos

• Idiots... Nothing can live forever.

• Do you wish to fight me?
  • At the North cape, after being confronted by the player

• Unimaginable is the power of Lavos. Anyone who dares to oppose... it... meets certain doom.

• I never imagined that we would settle our score in this dusty old era. Come, let us finish this charade!
  • At the North Cape, to Frog before the one on one duel

• There's a letter here. Shall we burn it?

• The weak always strive to be weaker...

• You got whacked 'cuz you're weak.
  • To Crono at the End of Time

• Oh, how dreadful. Say, do you hear that? It's the sound of the Reaper...
  • To Ozzie, at the end of his castle before facing him

• The past is dead. It was all just a dream...

• We were created only to be harvested. All people... and all living things... It's over for you... Your life ends here!
  • When facing Lavos

• If history is to change, let it change! If the world is to be destroyed, so be it! If my fate is to be destroyed... I must simply laugh!!

• Crono!! We can't keep sponging off my dad! Go and get a job!!

• Enough with the false modesty! You have a real gift! I would trade my royal ancestry for your genius in a heartbeat!
  • To Lucca

• I didn't "pick up" anything from outside! It's called "common sense!"
  • Reacting to King Guardia's remark about the things she learns outside the castle

• It was awful. I can't recall it all... I was somewhere cold, dark, and lonely. Is that what it's like to... die?
  • Returning from being written out of history

• Like we're in another world.

• You cocky boxes of bolts!

• Good morning, mistress. What is your command?
  • To Lucca after she repairs him.

• Name? Ah, my serial number. It is R66-Y.

  • Upon first traveling to the Dark Ages

• Systems reactivated. Wh, where am I? Ahh... Chrono, how nice to see you. For you, it was a quick hop, but for me 400 long years have passed. The effort was worth it! The forest has grown back! Now, let us celebrate our 400th year reunion.
  • After reviving Fiona's forest.

• After 400 years of experience, I have come to think that Lavos may not be responsible for the Gates... It is unknown, whose memories these are. It may be something beyond our comprehension. Our journey may come to an end when we finally discover the identity of the Entity. ... shall we turn in for the night?
  • Contemplating the origin of the gates.

• I'll give you my legs! They're lightweight and well balanced. You could mount some treads on me instead.
  • To Lucca after she fails to save her mother from the accident.

• I'm sorry but... I cannot afford to lose anything else... Not my precious memories, or my irreplaceable friends... Humans have taught me much. Crono, Marle, Lucca, Frog, and Ayla... I will not betray my friends.
  • To Mother Brain

• A.D. 1999! At 1:24! Data confirmed!
  • Time of Lavos's Apocalypse.

• Lucca, YOU have taught me these emotions. Thank you.

  • Before entering the gate to the new future.

• You're a marshmallow, Glenn.
  • Cyrus

• All life begins with Nu and ends with Nu... This is the truth! This is my belief! ...At least for now.
  • Belthasar in "The Mystery of Life" Vol. 841 Ch. 26

• It all began aeons ago, when man's ancestors picked up a shard of strange red rock. Its power, which was beyond human comprehension, cultivated dreams... in turn, love and hate were born... Only time will see how it all ends.

• This is the eternal kingdom of Zeal, where dreams can come true. But at what price?

• In our world, every storm has an end. Every night has a new morning. What's important is to trust those you love, and never give up. We must all keep hope alive...
  • Nun at Cathedral in 600 AD

• Just as you touch the energy of every life form you meet, so, too, will their energy strengthen you. Fail to live up to your potential, and you will never win.

  • Schala

• Behold, my pretties! Destiny, in its most brutal form. All the dreams that might have been. All the happiness and sorrow you might have experienced. Gone forever!!! For you there will be no tomorrow! The Black Omen transcends time and space, waiting for Lavos to awaken! Destiny has led you here. And here you shall rest forever, unless you defeat me, and smash the Omen! Perhaps I can persuade Lavos to share his dreams to you! Did I say dreams? I meant his eternal nightmare!
