This is a list of quotes by Olivia in Paper Mario: The Origami King.

Peach's Castle

 * "Mario...is that you?"
 * "I need your help! I'm...I'm...I'm in a very strange place."
 * "It's cramped and dark...almost like I'm in between dimensions or something."
 * "I'm not sure if I should be amazed or scared, but I'm kinda both?"
 * "If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to get out now, please. Is there any way you can help?"
 * "Are you leaving? It sounds like you're leaving! Please help me..."
 * "What was that? Did something light up at your feet? Is it a Magic Circle?"
 * "That's good...I think. I mean, I'm not really sure what you're supposed to do with it..."
 * "Can you try to use it somehow?"
 * "That...that sounded good! Are your arms all big and foldy now?"
 * "I've heard about this! I think those are called 1,000-Fold Arms."
 * "Try feeling around a bit...maybe you can help me escape from this strange dimension."
 * "If it feels like the arms are off-center and out of control, maybe try pressing to reset them."
 * "A little to the left..."
 * "Yes! You're right there!"
 * "Wow! I'm free from that weird in-between dimension!"
 * "...Oh, was I just stuck in that wall?"
 * "You must be Mario!"
 * "My name's Olivia! You'd probably like to know a lot more about me and why I was trapped like that, huh?"
 * "But...I don't think we really have time for that now. Maybe we should just get out of here."
 * "There's just one thing...I'm not exactly fleet of foot. Mind if I hitch a ride?"
 * "You know, I feel like I just had a pretty good idea..."
 * "I don't know if they'll always be good ideas, but I'm always happy to share 'em with you!"
 * "Why don't you try pressing if you're stuck, and I'll see if I can think of something useful?"
 * "Who knows? Maybe we'll get to know each other and make a great team! Is that how these things go?"
 * "Ooh! Thank you for calling on me with . It's my first hint! Now for an actual hint. Umm..."
 * "That hole in the wall looks like it might be a way to sneak out!"
 * "OK, I'm getting my bearings... I think we might be in the castle dungeon."
 * "Dungeons smell like...this place smells, right?"
 * "What did you see? Nothing terrifying, I hope..."
 * "OK, maybe I have time to explain one little thing. Those stiff-looking guys are called Folded Soldiers."
 * "I don't want to alarm you, but they're unbelievably dangerous. I think we should try to avoid them."
 * "What do you think they meant by That was the last of them... anyway? The last what?"
 * "Royalty? Ooh, nice to meet you! Is everyone in your kingdom also a face?"
 * "You're really getting the hang of those 1,000-Fold Arms, Mario!"
 * "Save complete, huh? Guess that means your adventure up to this point has been saved. Phew!"
 * "Let's make a habit of saving every time we see another one of these shiny blocks, OK?"
 * "Oh! And you'll find all sorts of helpful stuff if you open the menu with ."
 * "If you want to try out some other options or need some help, check the [options] section of the menu!"
 * "I've never seen a Folded Soldier like that, Mario. Does it look like one of your flat paper friends?"
 * "Oh no! I'm guessing this is your first time facing Folded Soldiers, Mario..."
 * "Once these flat paper folks have been turned into Folded Soldiers, we can't turn them back!"
 * "It seems cruel to fight them, but if we don't, they'll try to fold you into origami too!"
 * "I'd help you attack, but my tiny arms don't pack much of a punch. I don't want to get in your way..."
 * "So I'll cheer you on, but you'll have to do the heavy lifting yourself!"
 * "And hey, did you catch that first message? It said something about a "WAVE BATTLE!" Are we in some kind of splash zone?"
 * "I guess we'll worry about that when we get to it. Let's just focus on these enemies for now, Mario."
 * "Speaking of, you're surrounded by FOUR Folded Soldiers! Huh. Where did the other three come from?"
 * "If they all attack at once, you'll get a real pummeling. This looks rough..."

This is a list of quotes by Professor Elvin Gadd in Luigi's Mansion, Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon, and Luigi's Mansion 3, respectively.

Luigi's Mansion

 * "Ouch..."
 * "Ooof... I sure take a lot of knocks in this line of work."
 * "I'm getting too old for this ghost-catching tomfoolery."
 * "Anyway, nice to meet you. I'm Professor E. Gadd."
 * "This house... I swear it seems to have more ghosts every day!"
 * "What's a young feller like you doing around here, anyhoo?"
 * "Uh-oh! This looks ugly."
 * "All right, youngster, look lively! Follow me, posthaste!"
 * "So your name's Luigi? I think our paths were destined to cross. Well met, Luigi."
 * "Hmm? Where's this, you ask?"
 * "Why, these cozy quarters are where I do my ghost-studying. Professor E. Gadd's Ghost research laboratory! The Lab, if you're of a shortening mind."
 * "You won this mansion in a contest you didn't even enter? Sounds pretty fishy to me..."
 * "So, you believe the mansion actually exists, then... Strange."
 * "I've been living here since I was a lad of twenty or so, and I'll tell you: that mansion appeared just a few days ago! The spirits have fooled you!"
 * "I don't know if it's a dream, an illusion, or what-all, but I surely wouldn't be too happy winning a haunted house!"
 * "Now that I get a look at you, I just recalled... A guy with a red hat kind of like yours went up to the mansion without even stopping to chat...and he never returned. Was he a dream, too?"
 * "What?"
 * "That guy was your brother? Oh no! That's horrible!"
 * "He wouldn't stand a chance against those ghosts without my help! You have to go after him!"
 * "Here's the plan: I'll teach you to deal with ghosts so you can rescue your brother, Luigi."
 * "That's the vacuum cleaner I engineered to catch ghosts. I call it...this is genius...the Poltergust 3000! It can suck up all kinds of things. Let 'er rip!"
 * "Use the R Button to vacuum and the C Stick to change your direction."
 * "No matter how strong you think your brother is..."
 * "Ghosts are mysterious beings... They can't be caught using conventional means."
 * "So you'd better use this! It's the only way to foil 'em! This is the only thing they fear!"
 * "Or something to that effect... Ahem! Well, how's about we start your training?"
 * "Ghosts seem to like darkness, and they avoid the light."
 * "So if you hit 'em with a flashlight beam all of a sudden, you can stun 'em momentarily! Then it's vacuuming time!"
 * "When you see your chance, hold down the R Button and tilt the Control Stick in the opposite direction!"
 * "Just give it a try. You'll learn more that way than just listening to me yap about it."
 * "Ghosts love to hide in dark places. Isn't that a hoot?"
 * "There! Here they come!"
 * "Catching ghosts means using the flashlight and the Poltergust 3000 as a team, you get me, young feller?"
 * "That'll do!"
 * "Well, how many did you get?"
 * "Only two? That's no good."
 * "Tilt the Control Stick in the direction opposite the ghost."
 * "Fine, fine. Looks like you worked up quite a sweat there."
 * "How about a little cool-down in the gallery? I'm quite proud of it, you know..."
 * "Really? You're not interested?"
 * "Where will you go, Luigi?"
 * "Careful now, Luigi!"
 * "Hold up a sec, Luigi!"
 * "It's me, Professor E. Gadd!"
 * "I detect spirit stronger than we've yet seen lurking ahead. I think...it must be some of those escaped gallery ghosts!"
 * "You should know that they're really different from the other ghosts you've seen so far."
 * "They don't show their hearts very easily. Nope, not at all."
 * "When you find one, you should first use the X Button to search its heart for clues."
 * "Sometimes you can learn the best way to surprise 'em!"
 * "Well, Luigi, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you."
 * "KRZZZ...Lu...i...gi...KRZZZ...Luigi, can you hear me?"
 * "Oh, thank goodness you're OK! I lost contact with you all of a sudden... I was a tad worried."
 * "Hmmm. You seem to be a bit tuckered out after that long battle, don't you?"
 * "Why don't you come on back to the lab?"
 * "When you vacuum a Boss ghost, your Poltergust 3000 gets pretty much full to bursting."
 * "But...ho ho...I guess you showed that boss ghost who's boss!"
 * "Good job, Luigi! You made it back in one piece!"
 * "Take a gander at this. This fine piece of work took nearly twenty years to develop! I call it the Ghost Portrificationizer!"
 * "This machine lets us turn the ghosts you catch into paintings. Not only that, it works in reverse, too!"
 * "Hm? How do we use it, you ask? Well, it's simple. Just plug that Poltergust 3000 into that slot and enjoy the ride, my boy!"
 * "The ghosts are invisible...so we need to...press 'em into visible forms...and presto! Turn 'em into beautiful ghost portraits!"
 * "Hmmm..."
 * "Well, we managed to turn those ghosts back into paintings. Thanks for your help, Luigi!"
 * "Heh heh heh! Looks like you've run into a bit of trouble there. Maybe you need more training!"
 * "There are some ghosts who'll try to grab and hold you..."
 * "When that happens, try moving your Control Stick back and forth to shake 'em off!"
 * "It's the age-old struggle for survival, my boy! Don't lose heart, Luigi!"
 * "Luigi! Are you OK?"
 * "That was them! Those were the ones who released all of the ghosts from the paintings my gallery! Those fiends!"
 * "I wondered where King Boo and his gang had gone. So, they were hiding in the mansion all along... Thanks for flushing 'em out, Luigi!"
 * "I'm tickled you found 'em, but...perhaps it would've been better if you hadn't, well...let every single one escape. Just a thought."
 * "Ah, well, water under the bridge. Anyway, you should probably come back to the Lab for a sec."
 * "I've been waiting for you, young Luigi!"
 * "Your brother must've been taken by that gang of Boos... Poor feller..."
 * "Oh now, don't talk crazy. They're not gonna eat the man. But what became of him, hm? Odd that he hasn't come back."
 * "Common theory holds that Boos grow in strength when they travel in numbers. They must somehow combine their powers too... Their powers likely overwhelmed your brother."
 * "If your aim is to save Mario, there's but one way to do it: capture each Boo and slowly weaken the group's power!"
 * "But Boos, as their name implies, like to hide and then jump out to scare people. You've got your work cut out finding 'em..."
 * "Heh heh heh. Don't get all down in the mouth, my boy! That Game Boy Horror I gave you has a secret function!"
 * "I knew it'd come in handy one day, so I developed it secretly. I call it the Boo Radar!"
 * "The Boo Radar will flash red when something round like a Boo is hidden nearby. Use it to search everywhere, Luigi!"
 * "All right now, sonny. Don't go tuckering yourself out. Relax, and just try to get those Boos one at a time. The trick is using the Control Stick and the C Stick together. Don't forget, now!"
 * "Mercy! You've already caught your first Boo! I've been researching those guys..."
 * "Well, these Boos don't seem to like light much, that's for sure. They do their best to hide in and under furniture when they're stuck in a lit room."
 * "So, then, I reckon that means that turning on all the lights in the mansion is the fastest way to find all of the Boos. Wouldn't you say, youngster?"
 * "OK, now send me the Boo and all the data you've got."
 * "Be careful, Luigi!"
 * "Aren't you just loving my brilliant inventions?"
 * "Ho! You're on FIRE, Luigi! ON FIRE!"
 * "Yowzer! You got another one! You're cruising, Luigi!"
 * "Unbelievable! There's no stopping you, Luigi!"
 * "You've already found five Boos! You're a Boo-snaring maniac!"
 * "I understand you're worried about your brother, young feller, but just take 'er easy. You have plenty of time still, so try to keep your shirt on."
 * "Why not go to the Washroom and splash some water on your face? You'll feel much better, believe you me!"
 * "Hey now, Luigi! What have you found there? Let's take a look at that. ... Ooh... Ah... It's...a Fire Element Medal! Now you can use the Fire Element!"
 * "Yes sir, with that, you can catch Fire Elemental Ghosts!"
 * "Hm? What's a Fire Elemental Ghost, you ask? Why, they show up wherever you see fire, my boy! They're ghosts of fire itself, if you will."
 * "If you approach a flame, they'll be surprised by your presence and leap out into the air. Then you vacuum 'em up right away!"
 * "After that, you can expel fire with the L Button."
 * "You can melt ice, light candles, do all kinds of stuff."
 * "A meter will appear down at the bottom of the screen, so keep an eye on how much element you have left, OK, feller?"
 * "You may have to use the Fire Element to defeat some ghosts... Keep that in mind, sonny! Don't say I never warned you!"
 * "Hey now, Luigi! Now what have you stumbled across? ... Oh... This time... It's...a Water Element Medal!"
 * "Now you can use the Water Element!"
 * "My research shows that these particular Elemental Ghosts leave their watery dwellings whenever you approach. You know the drill...vacuum 'em up!"
 * "Use the L Button to expel 'em once they're vacuumed! If you press the L Button all the way in, you can shoot out a big ball of water!"
 * "I hear there are some ghosts who can be defeated only with water, actually... Also, remember that water has purifying properties, so use it well..."
 * "Don't get too caught up with your new squirt gun, Luigi!"
 * "Outstanding work! You're like a leopard on the hunt!"
 * "Heh heh. Well done, Luigi!"
 * "Good to hear you're still OK! I lost your signal when that lightning struck."
 * "Hmmm. That was some battle you had there."
 * "Why don't you come on back to the lab?"
 * "What? You think the lightning damaged the Poltergust 3000?"
 * "Don't worry about it!"
 * "Even if that lightning had cooked your goose, your Poltergust 3000 wouldn't even have a scratch! Heh heh!"
 * "Looks like you got a vacuum full of ghosts there. What do you say we put 'em through the old Ghost Portrificationizer!"
 * "Hey now, Luigi! What have you found there? Let me see it! ... Oh... Ah... It's...an Ice Element Medal! Now you can use the Ice Element!"
 * "Ice Elemental Ghosts are found only in chilly places. You'll probably find them in refrigerators and cold areas like that..."
 * "My research shows that they come out of hiding when you approach. Use the L Button to expel Ice Element once you vacuum one of these ghosts up!"
 * "If you press the L Button all the way in, you can shoot out a frigid lump of ice!"
 * "Yes-sirree. When water gets cold, it freezes, right? Ice can be very effective against water. You could use it on water ghosts, for example."
 * "Even a hot bath would get cold pretty quick if you iced it down. Yep, that's a very convenient item you found there, Luigi!"
 * "Well done, Luigi my boy! This time I have a special bit of information for you! You know about elements, right? Anybody will tell you they form a triangular relationship. Which is to say, water beats fire, fire beats ice, and ice beats water. Heh heh heh... Get me?"
 * "It's like you were born to capture Boos, Luigi!"
 * "You give those Boos what-for, Luigi!"
 * "Well done, Luigi my boy! This time I have a special bit of information for you! Ghosts other than Boos will not appear in the direction you're looking, so you'll have to sneak up on 'em backward...but I bet you knew that already, heh!"
 * "Did you see that Boo just give up at the end, Luigi? Your reputation is spreading!"
 * "KRZZZ...Lu...i...gi...KRZZZ...Luigi, can you hear me? Oh, what a relief! That white mist interrupted your signal. Hmmm. You seem to have done some serious work there! Why don't you come on back to the lab? We can have dinner while we gaze at these ghost paintings! Tonight I'll make an old family recipe. Pickled dandelions with barnacles in a diesel marinade!"
 * "Criminy! What a calamity! The elec-the electricity has gone out! That lightning strike just now must've caused a blackout. I can't see anything in this blasted darkness... The ghosts will have the run of the place in the dark! Be careful, Luigi!"
 * "Oh, sorry to surprise you, boy! It's me, Professor E. Gadd... Sorry for disturbing you. I know I usually contact you by Game Boy Horror, but I thought I'd try this phone since you were in the room... You know that all ghosts avoid the light and hide in the dark... But listen, now. There's one ghost who fled from the gallery who only hides in the darkest places... His name is... Uncle Grimmly... If he's on the loose, then now may be your only chance to get him... Why don't you try looking for him before you get those lights back on? Might be wise... He's old for a ghost, but it's only made him more cautious. I do know, though, that for some reason he tends to prefer rooms with mirrors... Uh-oh! The ghosts are starting to approach your position! Be careful, Luigi!"
 * "Tip-top, Luigi! You remind me of myself at your age..."
 * "Fantastic! Way to go, Luigi!"
 * "The tiger creeps up behind its prey...and strikes like lightning!"
 * "You move as smoothly as water, my boy! Keep it up!"
 * "You're busting out all kinds of wild techniques today, Luigi!"
 * "KRRZZZ...Luigi... Luigi, you did it! Truly remarkable, my boy! I supplied the Poltergust 3000, but you ran with it all the way to the top, sonny! You've made me so...SNIFFF...proud...SNORT! (Get ahold of yourself, Gadd!) ... What's that? You found King Boo? He jumped into a painting of Bowser, you say? He even blew fire at you? ... Well, well... In all my years of ghost research, I've never heard such a fantastical tale! ... And that career spans sixty years, mind you. Why, I still recall starting out as a young whelp who trembled at the mere thought of a ghost, TREMBLED, I say... Oh, beg your pardon! This old brain goes recollecting every now and then... I could sit down and fill a week spinning ghost yarns. Why, just last week... Right, well, anyhoo, Luigi! Grab your brother's painting and bring him back to the lab! Heh heh heh... The poor little feller's fallen asleep... He must have just collapsed with relief and exhaustion when he saw you arrive... I'll get the machine ready to return your brother to his former state, all righty? I'll be expecting you both!"
 * "This'll mess with your head: All your hard work lasted only a single night! Well done, Luigi! The mansion those Boos built disappeared into the night, but that treasure seems to be real. I have no interest in such stuff, so go on and keep it all! Use it however you like! Say what? Enough rattling on about money? I guess we'd better get your brother back then. Of course, your brother's really important, but first we have to take care of these last ghosts!"
 * "Hmmm... I'd wager dollars to donuts that nobody but me has such lovely paintings! Heh heh heh!"
