Oh I've had the pleasure of experiencing and hearing some fantastic snippets of brilliance down the years. Some of my favourites off the top of my head would be:

 

"Isn't it beautiful? It's almost tragic. When life ends, it gives off a final lingering aroma. Light is but a farewell gift from the darkness to those on their way to die. I've been waiting, Snake, for a long time. Waiting for your birth, your growth, and the finality of today."

- The Boss (Metal Gear Solid 3)

 

 

"It ain't no secret I didn't get these scars falling over in church."

"People say to me, 'Fernando, are you bilingual?' and I say, 'I try anything once.'"

- Fernando Martinez (GTA: Vice City)

 

 

"In my restless dreams, I see that town... Silent Hill. You promised you'd take me there again some day... but you never did. Well, I'm alone there now, in our special place... waiting for you." - Mary (Silent Hill 2)

 

 

"I never felt truly alive unless I was staring death in the face."

- Solid Snake (Metal Gear Solid)

 

Damn, I've left many out but those ones are always among the first I usually think of when asked that question.

The Boss:

Isn't it beautiful? It's almost tragic. When life ends, it gives off a final lingering aroma. Light is but a farewell gift from the darkness to those on their way to die.

 

The Sorrow:

This world is one of sadness. Battle brings death. Death brings sorrow. The living may not hear them. Their voices may fall upon deaf ears. But make no mistake - the dead... are not silent.

 

Snake:

A name means nothing on the battlefield. After a week, no one has a name.

"Insanity leads to chaos, Then to solitude. The fruitless effort of adding meaning to what is meaningless. A lone, crimson tear falls to the sea...

I do believe I put up 2 DMC quotes, I couldn't remember the others

[Tosmasta00]

DMC3

 

Dante: No talking!

 

Dante: You sure know how to throw a party. No food, no drinks, and the only babe just left.

Vergil: My sincerest apology, brother. I was so eager to see you, I couldn't concentrate on the preparations for the bash.

Dante: Whatever. At any rate, it has been a whole year since we last met. How about a kiss from your little brother? Or better yet...  How about a kiss from this?

Dante: So, this is what they called a heartwarming family reunion, eh?

Vergil: You got that right

 

Vergil: Foolishness, Dante, foolishness. Might controls everything, and without strength, you cannot protect anything. Let alone yourself.

 

Nevan: Hmmm! Welcome, sir! Is this your first time here?

Dante: Yeah... it is. You'll be nice to me, won't you?

Nevan: Of course I will! I'll treat you so nicely, You'll never want to leave!

 

Beowulf: SPARDA!

Dante: Aw, you poor thing. Didn't your mother teach you how to use a door?

Beowulf: That odor, I know it.

Dante: Huh? Give me a break. I'll tell you what, I'll try and wear some cologne next time, okay?

Beowulf: It's the stench of betrayal. The stench of the accursed Sparda! I shall annihilate every last blood relation of Sparda!

Dante: Ho-ho-ho, a son cleaning up his dad's mess. Where have I heard this story before?

 

Jester: Bravo, Bravo! I never dreamed things would go so smoothly, well done everyone, well done! Don't be a bad girl, Mary. Or you can expect a spanking from daddy later! Jester's gonna spank your butt, spank you on your buuuutt!

 

Arkham: Welcome! What do you think after looking at your father's image?

Dante: It's like staring into a backed-up toilet! Why do you always stick your nose in other families' business. Come on, dude, don't you have any hobbies?

 

Arkham: What's this!? Damn you!

Vergil: I have come to retrieve my power... You can't handle it.

Dante: Look at you, making a big dramatic entrance and stealing my spotlight!

Vergil: Well... you don't possibly believe that he deserves to be our main event, now do you?

Dante: Now that you mention it, you're right.

Arkham: Do you truly believe that you can defeat me? Defeat the power of your father, the great Sparda?!

Vergil: You should come to realize you cannot control the power of Sparda...

Dante: You're wasting your time, buddy! I think he needs to learn the hard way.

 

Vergil:  I'll try it your way for once.

Dante: Remember what we used to say?

Arkham: DON'T DO IT!

Vergil&Dante: JACKPOT!

Arkham: I have the true power of Sparda!

Vergil: Not very classy for someone's dying words.

 

Vergil: Give that to me.

Dante: No way, you got your own.

Vergil: Well I want yours too.

Dante: What are you gonna do with all that power, huh? No matter how hard you try, you're never gonna be like father!

Vergil: You're wasting time!

Dante: We are the sons of Sparda, and within each of us flows his blood, but more importantly, his SOUL! And now, my soul is saying that it wants to stop you!

Vergil: (evil laugh) Unfortunately, our souls are at odds, brother. I need more power!

Dante: And we're supposed to be twins...

Vergil: Twins, right...         

Vergil: Am I... being defeated?

Dante: Is that all you got? Come on! Get up! You can do better than that.

Vergil: The portal to the human world is closing, Dante, because the amulets have been separated.

Dante: Lets finish this, Vergil. I have to stop you, even if it means killing you. 

Vergil: No one can have this, Dante... it's mine, it belongs to a son of Sparda. Leave me and go, if you don't want to be trapped into the demon world... I'm staying. This place was our father's home.

 

Lady: Oh, speaking of a kind devil, he finally decided on the name for his shop. It took him quite a while to pick one. Wanna know the name?

Lady&Dante: "Devil May Cry."

 

DMC4

 

Nero: From that day forth... my arm changed... and a voice echoed "Power! Give me more power!" and if I become a demon, so be it... I'll endure the exile... anything... to protect her!

 

Nero: You know, God, I always hated that you made my arm like this... But now with it I can destroy this thing. Who would've thought?

Travis: Everybody deals with grief differently right? Some people fuck at funerals ... I cut off heads.

Dante: Wow, I've never seen a talking mutt before. You know in a dog show, you'd definitely take first place.

 

Dante: Damn it! You guys totally wrecked my shop! And I haven't even named it yet! You're gonna pay for that!

Hazama: What's this? You don't get it? Ooh, this is rich! Come on, give it a shot! Work those brain cells! Nothing? Ahahahaha! This is why you can't beat me, Rags! Write this down, 'cause there's gonna be a test later. I'm the one who created the Azure Grimoire!

 

Jin Kisaragi: BROTHER!!

 

Mu-12: I have arrived, reborn as Kusanagi, the destroyer of all living creatures. I am death... 

• The world you have wished for... is filled with pain, agony, and despair. It will continue to collapse upon itself. That kind of world is unnecessary!
• The seven celestial gods! This world was created by the hands of the gods. Everything is false! Everything is a lie! The final days have come... Now, let everything be destroyed!

Noel Vermillion: I guess there are lots of people in the world. I've never seen anyone like you before. You're really enthusiastic. Maybe a little too enthusiastic...

• Y-You're cheating! ...In many ways! B-But, I'd like to sit down and talk sometime. Do you think I could touch your... panda? U-Um, that's an order!
• Ragna the Bloodedge... YOU'RE STUPID!
• Hands off the panda!
• Dispatched in Mankind's darkest hour, we are knights of the blue flame!

Rachel Alucard: Not now. Listen to me. Never admit defeat. Endure whatever pain you may face, and fight until your last breath, as a human being. Even if you are ugly, and pathetic, and broken... Please, Ragna.

• Why, hello, Ragna. As ever, your face reminds me of nature's cruel sense of humor.
• That is quite a body you've built, but I believe only thirty percent of it is truly necessary. Are you perhaps... compensating?
