Quotes: Disc One
[Selphie jumps off the cliff near the Dollet Communication Tower.]
(Selphie) What are you waiting for!? Come on! Come on!
[Squall takes the winding road rather than jump as well.]
(Selphie) What took you so long? It would've been so much quicker if you'd just jumped.
(Zell) ...Much quicker? Pu-lease... ...You wouldn't normally jump off a cliff, OK!? Ain't that right, Squall?
(Squall) ... I don't know about that. Perhaps anyone but the Chicken-wuss can make it.
(Zell) WHAT DID YOU SAYYYYY!!!?
(Selphie) ...Hm? Since you're so angry, I guess you're the Chicken-wuss.
(Zell) What the...!!! WHY IS EVERYONE...? I am not a CHICKEN!!!
(Selphie) Well... If you don't like CHICKEN, how 'bout... a PIG! Oh, but you look more like a CHICKEN, anyway.
(Zell) Chicken, pig, whatever... Call me what you want!!! I don't care anymore!!!- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[At the SeeD graduation party, Selphie comes across Zell.]

[The Forest Owls explain their plan to Squall, Selphie and Zell.]
(Rinoa) President Deling is taking a private train from the Galbadian capital.
(Zone) Our plan is to...
(Selphie) ...Blow it to smithereens with a rocket launcher!?- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[The Forest Owls have finished explaining their plan of action.]
(Selphie) By the way... this model's nice but the president's car looks kinda shabby. ......Why is that?
(Zone) Yeah, Rinoa made it. That's why. We bought everything else at the gift store.
(Zell) Oh... I thought some kid made it. The paint job sucks, too.
(Rinoa) Oh, shut up! I made it look like that on purpose. It represents my hatred towards Deling.
(Selphie) It's one of the... ugliest things that I've seen in my life. You must really hate him.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[The party and the Forest Owls wonder what President Deling could possibly want to broadcast through the use of radio waves.]
(Rinoa) What I want to know is, what is the president going to broadcast!? Why use radio waves? There must be something they want to say to the whole world. What can it be?
(Selphie) "Everybody! Love! And Peace!"- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[When the broadcast at Timber has begun.]
(Pres. Deling) Greetings. I am Vinzer Deling, lifelong president of Galbadia. Today, I stand before you to make the following proposition. We the people of the world have the power to end all wars.
(Selphie) See, see! It's a peace proposal to the world. I knew it!- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[After the operation in Timber goes awry, the party is taken in by the leader of the Forest Fox, a fat woman of a certain age. Suddenly, a Galbadian soldier in search of the fugitives yells from outside the house, and the woman's daughter comes down the stairs to guide the party into a room where they can hide, while the former stays to distract the soldiers.]
(Rinoa) Will [your mother] be okay?
(Woman's Daughter) She'll be fine. The legend goes... that my mother took down many soldiers with her strength, cooking, and beauty.
(Selphie) That 'beauty' part sure makes it sound like a legend.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[In Galbadia Garden, the party thinks that Seifer has been executed.]
(Squall) (I liked him... wasn't really a bad guy... He was one of us... Seifer... You've become just a memory. Will they... Will they talk about me this way if I die, too? Squall was this and that. Using past tense, saying whatever they want? So this is what death is all about... ...Not for me. I won't have it!!!)
(Quistis) What's wrong, Squall?
(Squall) I won't have it!
[Unaware of Squall's previous thoughts, the others don't understand where this is coming from.]
(Zell) W-What?
(Selphie) Are you MAD!?- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[When leaving Galbadia Garden, Squall allows Irvine to choose his own party, which "coincidentally" consists of himself, Selphie and Rinoa.]
(Irvine) How's this?
(Squall) Have a good time...
(Selphie) Are you being sarcastic!? You are, aren't you! Well, fine then! We WILL have a good time!
(Rinoa) We understand very well. Come on Mr. Kinneas, let's go!
(Irvine) Call me Irvine. I'm a pretty lucky guy. Hand in hand with two beautiful girls!
[Selphie clings to Irvine.]
(Selphie) Irvy Kinnepooo! I'll make you happy!- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
[Inside the train headed for Deling City.]
(Irvine) Selphie... We're destined to be together!
(Selphie) Y-yeah right!
(Irvine) A sigh of love?
(Selphie) N-no!
