From far away, as I watched the people who lived there, I always found myself wondering how and why they could possibly keep on living. What motivation did they have that would get them up everyday no matter what for the rest of their lives? Rem, why are you laughing?"
"It's just that you're always so serious, even when you're dreaming. You'll turn into an old man very quickly if you keep on constantly pondering like that. I'm excited to think that the ticket I was handed on the day of my birth was completely open. The choices we make in life have unlimited possibilities. All I can do is think of them."
- Vash and Rem respectively as Vash ponders whether to kill Monev and has a flashback, Diablo

"Hey, did you hear the rumor 'bout how the Humanoid Typhoon showed up in August?"
"I sure did. Y'know they say he managed to destroy the entire city all by himself? First July, and now August... What in the hell can that maniac be thinking? He's completely out of control, it's just getting out of hand. The bounty on his head will only get bigger now, and who's to say he won't destroy our town, and any other?"
"I'm starting to believe it's all his fault we're stuck on this planet, not to mention all the other crap I've heard about him. But there's more. They're saying now that he's solely responsible for that big hole in the Moon. It makes me sick just to think about it."
"What are you, nuts? There isn't a man alive that can pull off a stunt like that."
"Cool your jets, will ya? I'm just tellin' ya what I heard. I'm not makin' it up."
"Hey, at this point, maybe we should be thankful that we're all still alive."
"Yup, you said it."

"What do I look like?"
"A momma's boy."
"That's mean..."
- Rowan compliments Knives' haircut, and when Vash asks about his, everyone insults him (the final retort is one I use quite often ^_^), Rem Saverem

"That was the easiest way to stop him. You wanted to save the butterfly, right?"
"I didn't want to kill the spider, I wanted to save them both!"
- Knives and Vash start in on the infamous Spider vs. Butterfly conversation, Rem Saverem

"If you just keep saving the butterflies, the spiders will die. Wanting to save both is just a naieve contradiction." - Knives gets philosophical on Rem and Vash, and as a result gets the crap kicked out of him by Vash, Rem Saverem

- Wolfwood and a bartender gossip about Vash, And Now, Goodbye

"I can see why he's upset, it does ruin his boyish good looks." - Wolfwood comments on the bad guy for the ep (ok, it's got nothing to do with Vash, but if you look at this guy, he is almost as big a freak as EG Mine, and I laughed pretty hard when he said it, so it stays ^_^), - And Now, Goodbye

"It's not your fault kid, he's got his reasons. We've gotta trust that he knows what he's doing."
"But why?"
"That's just the way he is."
- Wolfwood comforts Lina while Vash is barking naked in the street to get her off the hook, And Now, Goodbye

"Showtime."
- The villian gets excited when Vash and Wolfwood walk in on their hideout, Vash and Wolfwood reply to him calmly in unison, And Now, Goodbye

"Hey, I don't want you killing anyone, alright?"

"Thou shalt not kill, remember? What kind of churchman are you, anyway?"
"I've heard that before. Now you're starting to sound like your old self."
- Vash and Wolfwood respectively talking about the impending rescue amongst 200 gunman, And Now, Goodbye

"Who would've guessed that Eriks was Vash the Stampede? Unbelievable!"

"And to think, all this time we were covinced this pigman was Vash."

"Yea, we oughta run him out right now!"
- Men in a bar talk about living around Vash the Stampede, And Now, Goodbye

"For crying out loud, if he's alive he could've at least mentioned it. He probably gets a kick out of making people bite his dust. That bum." - Meryl being prudish about Vash again, Hang Fire

"If you're dead, you don't have to say anything, but if you're alive I'd appreciate if you fellas would say something!" - Random man finds Vash and Wolfwood laying out in the middle of the desert, Hang Fire

"Come again, Needle Noggin?!" - Wolfwood uses that nickname ^_^ Hang Fire

"Yup, the one and only humaniod typhoon. He carries the dubious title of being mankind's first localized human disaster."
That's rediculous. When I saw him he was weeping and eating piles of donuts at the same time"
- Meryl and a Little Jersey citizen respectively. The legend grows... Hang Fire

"So is that what a typhoon is? A furious beauty who levels entire cities without even a warning." - Vash finally finds out what a typhoon is and how accurately it fits him, Hang Fire

"Total slaughter, total slaughter, I won't leave a single man alive. Ladedahdedie, genocide. Ladedadedud, an ocean of blood. Let's begin the killing time." - Vash's creepy song while walking down an empty echoing dark hallway to confront bad guys, Hang Fire

- Upon opening the door and finding Vash screaming and subdued by Wolfwood, Brad questions Vash's identity and the Doctor's just glad he hasn't changed ^_^;, Flying Ship

"So Vash, how's Max? Is he well?"
"Oh yea, he's doing great. He has staring contests with forecast charts."
- The Doctor and Max talk of an old friend (I just liked Vash's reply...), Flying Ship

"Hey Mister legend, since you're the one who fired off the big weapon, doesn't that make you mre destrutive than Knives?" - Brad questions Vash, Flying Ship

"However. I do know of a guy who whines, cries, & throws tantrums and he somehow manages to find a way to save everyone. He's a crazy man who's not afraid of anything. Even though he's been scarred from head to toe, he'll always be there." - Wolfwood talks rumor-like of Vash, and you know how I like the rumors ^_^, Flying Ship

"A flower. A red flower."
"Isn't it beautiful? They call this one a geranium. There are many other types of flowers on Earth of all different colors and shapes and sizes. They hold a very special place in people's hearts."
"Can you eat them Rem?"
"Some flowers can be eaten."

"*vader-like breathing noise*" - Grey the Ninelives, thinking about killing Vash the Stampede (Ok, here's the deal: I wanted a Vash quote from every Gung-Ho Gun on here, and this was the best I could do with the non-speaking one. I'll even go so far as to admit this particular GHG never even laid eyes on Vash... so we just assume he thinks about killing Vash while he breathes), Out of Time

"Oh yea, a word to the wise: We're not dealing with typical human beings here. If you try pulling the same stunts as before I guarantee you they will destroy you this time." - Wolfwood telling Vash to be careful about the Gung-Ho Guns, Out of Time

"Y'know what, now that I actually stop to think about it, this is really kind of... SCARY!" - Vash begins his well-thought-out plan of shooting his way to the sixth floor below him, Out of Time

"Tell me why! Why did you have to kill them! Why would you even wanna do something like that?!"

"I have failed... but I do not understand, it was a perfect plan..." - Leonof the Puppetmaster, coming closer than any of the GHG save for Rai-Dei in killing Vash, Out of Time

"It's not wise to drown in each other's pain. You must kill this man now."
- Chapel the Evergreen and Nick talk, Paradise

"Answer me one thing. You're obviously going after Knives, what are you going to do once you find him?"

- A couple kids happen upon Vash weeping over Wolfwood's death, Sin

"That's right, you can't possibly draw. You seem to think you've never killed anyone, but I'm afraid you're very sadly mistaken. You've managed to fool noone but yourself. You want to believe that because you're hands aren't dirty, because you didn't personally pull the trigger, that you're innocent, when in actuality you've killed countless people including the Gung-Ho Guns and your friend Nicholas D. Wolfwood." - Legato lectures Vash, Sin

"If we hadn't followed him, he wouldn't have had to make such a terrible choice and things may have turned out differently." - Meryl blames herself and Milly for Vash's despair, Live Through

"How can a normal human being do all those horrible things?" - A random crowdperson jeers Vash and questions his humanity, Live Through

"We have the right to shoot this monster for everything he's done! We lost friends, families, neighbors, even children! We should hate this bastard and now he deserves to die!" - An angry mob catches up with Vash, Live Through
