What's the best/funniest NPC line you've heard?

    While not an NPC per se, I had one of my crafting hirelings blame his poor haul on him having to tend to his poor, sick dog!

    The drunk winemerchant in Stonefalls tends to crack me up with the line he utters in a drunken slur when you've helped him out:

    "Thank the three! Alllll... three of them!"

    I'm kind of in love with him. One of the best quests in EP!

    I heard a bandit complaining to another bandit. "So I broke four lock picks trying to open a chest only to find out it was empty." My only thought was that suck I sure hope it doesn't happen to me.
    Guild Master of the Guild <The Wrath of Sheogorath>. CHEESE AND CABBAGE FOR EVERYONE!!!

    This seems to be a random NPC guard line in DC:

    "I like to crush skulls and eat sweet rolls... and I'm all out of sweet rolls!"

    If this isn't a reference to the Duke, I don't know. :D

    I believe it is a reference to the immortal cult classing starring Rowdy Roddy Piper, "They Live", in which he enters a bank full of aliens that only he can see, and declares, "I am here to kick a*s and chew bubble-gum. And I'm all out of bubble-gum." and procedes to devastate a building full of aliens.

    A female guard informed me last night that if I was trying to be witty I was only half way there...

    I was at Skald's Retreat today in the Rift and I heard a ghostly mother scolding her daughter.

    "You're going out dressed like that? You look like a horker!"

    @zos_GinaBruno "We are working on Werewolves, will have the changes posted this week"

    I contend that Gina *is* a NPC, as she meets all the criteria, She obviously does not play the game, so she is a NON PLAYER, and her comments are hilarious so she is quite the CHARACTER.....

    I heard a variation on that, with a thief complaining to a friend that he broke four lockpicks opening a chest, only to find a single lockpick.

    Not sure which is worse.
    People believe what they either want to be true or what they are afraid is true!
    Wizard's first rule
    Passion rules reason
    Wizard's third rule
    Mind what people Do, not what they say, for actions betray a lie.
    Wizard's fifth rule
    Willfully turning aside from the truth is treason to one's self
    Wizard's tenth rule

    I forget exactly what was said but one of my hirelings sent me his package one day with an apology for the brevity of his message as he was being chased by a mob of angry villagers.

    An pretty obvious reference to Oblivion and to some degree Skyrim.
