Actually, pretty much every line in this strip is beautiful. It's as if the author was sitting in on one of our more entertaining D&D sessions.

These are mostly from memory, don't feel like digging them up to get the exact quote.
"Did that halfling just hit me in the face with a pineapple?" -Wight
"Not that interrupting that train of thought wouldn't be reason enough for me to speak..." -Redcloak
"Mr. Stiffly? Mr. Stiffly! O-CHUL!" -MITD

"If you see any of your allies, kill them and bring me their magic items... If you see any of your allies, kill them and keep their magic items for yourself. While singing the complete score to "Meet Me In St. Louis." I love being evil." -Nale
And basically anything else uttered by MITD, Xykon, Vaarsuvius, Shojo, or Belkar.

That's one of my favorites too, along with (including but not limited too)
"We're talking about the the guy who decided to say the word 'blah' 497 times in a row just because it had never been done before." - Haley's Self-Loathing

"What purpose is served by a trap that sprays only barbecue sauce?" - V again.
"You know, the first two I should have seen coming. The leprechaun costume? Not so much." - Nale.

"You're an annoying twit who doesn't know as much as she thinks she does.....oh, you mean dismiss the SUMMONING." Haley, to Celia.
And, on a serious note, one of the best lines EVER--
"The loss of your craftsmanship diminishes our people, elder. May you be called upon to gild the edges of the Dark One's own armor. Disintegrate."
Redcloak, to the recently murdered hobgoblin artisan. Just a marvelously touching line, and a real insight into Redcloak's inherent nobility.
(oh, and this post needs a "like" button a la Facebook, because I've gotten some good laughs out of just reading everybody else's posts.)

"Where is Girard Draketooth?"
"Beneath his own feet." Roy interrogating Orrin (or whoever it was).
"Eight percent? I've seen hospitals with worse mortality rates."
"Sir, watch your grammar!"
"Why, what's wrong with it?"
"Absolutely nothing!" Kilkil and Malak.
"Remember the Rajah?"
"Ha, and you said there was no way I'd hold that much creamed spinach in my mouth for the whole coronation." Malak and Tarquin
"Ugh, reasonable adults talking out their differences? If this catches on we'll both be out of a job."
And the coup de grace:
"your fault'- Draketooth mummy to Vaarsuvius.

I still think "your fault" is one of the best lines in the entire comic.

As my sig suggests, my favorite lines are ones in #262, leading up to the +2 circumstance bonus:
Try simply speaking to Miss Starshine, Elan. Tell her how much faith you have in her rogue abilities. Oh! OK!
So, Haley, uh I just wanted to say how much we're all counting on you. We don't really want to go to trial, so we need to get out of this dumb jail, like, right now. Qbb, exfdir, dp nubrrzub exbub. (Gee, thanks, no pressure there.)
And even though that lock is really hard, I know you can do it. You can do anything. Because you're smart and sneaky and good at stuff... Wfld ce! PNBD!! (Damn it! OPEN!!)
And... I believe in you.
>click<
Woooo! Haley, you did it!! C fl epefggj cd gpyb hcex jpz. (I am totally in love with you.)
Their: a possessive pronoun like “her” or “our” There: refers to a place ("the Kobold is over THERE"), or to indicate the existence of something, or to mention something for the first time. ("THERE is a Halfling sneaking up on him") They're: a contraction of “they are.”
"The loss of your craftsmanship diminishes our people, elder. May you be called upon to gild the edges of the Dark One's own armor. Disintegrate."
Redcloak, to the recently murdered hobgoblin artisan. Just a marvelously touching line, and a real insight into Redcloak's inherent nobility.
"Nobility" is hardly the word I'd use, seeing as Redcloak assuredly would have Disintegrated that guy regardless of whether Tsukiko killed him first.

What makes you think that? Either the goblin was in on the Plan or all he knew was that he was making Redcloak a new holy symbol. Either way, no need to kill him. And Redcloak, especially post-epiphany, doesn't seem inclined to kill his own unless necessary.
