• "Yepperoni! Easy as pie!"
• "Capitalism, ho!"
• "So! I have an item shop! And stuff! And it's cool and awesome!"
• "...I wonder if I can survive with only two internal organs?...Maybe if I eat a lot of spinach, that can replace my blood, or...oh, but I don't wanna be a sailor!"

• "Aww, but I wanted to leave through the window, like an action hero!"
• "Holy Carp"
• "Stained-glass yayness!"

• "Those who take the game without paying will be foreclosed on." (from the end of the demo)
• "Well, dinner parties do not usually involve blood-thirsty beasts attempting to rip you limb from limb..."
• "Just be sure Recette isn't on the menu." (when Recette compares being friends with adventurers to attending a dinner party)
• "You know, you seem to have a basic understanding of how to sell things to people and not drive them to burn the shop in anger."
• "The clock does not have a 'G'morning' hand!"

• Is there something WRONG with being a a Lord of Darkness?
