 * ''"Once you fools are gone, no one will stand in my way! Grodus will rule the world!"
 * "I was hoping the Shadow Sirens would do a little more to slow your progress, but it would appear that they are so useless, that even a simple task was beyond them."
 * ''"Meet your ends, you meddlesome fools! You will know my power!"
 * ''"So, you have the mettle to push me this far... But no more!"
 * ''"Argh! You will not stop me! Take this!"
 * ''"Guh! Fools!"

 * ''"WORM! You would dare defy me?!? Do you NOT care for the life of your pitiful princess?"
 * ''"Now, arise! Arrise! My Shadow Queen!"
 * ''"Yes, my glorious witch queen... Destroy these impudent fools!"
 * ''"Huh? What do you mean?!? I thought you were bound to obey the one who woke you!"
 * ''"Enough of this prattle! Do as I say!!! NOW! Or I will send you back to the depths..."

Shadow Queen

 * ''"Who... has called me back?"
 * ''"You... Very well. Where is the vessel?"
 * ''"Ah, yes... A fine vessel she is. Now..."
 * ''"Muh huh huh huh! Witness my rebirth..."
 * ''"Who are you that would command me? What sort of being are you?"
 * ''"You would do well to learn your proper place, slave. No one commands me."
 * "Ah, Beldam... What ages have passed? I'll take it that you're the one truly responsible for bringing me back, yes?"
 * "Muh huh huh... Very good. You have fulfilled your duties admirably."
 * "But who are these... beings who stand before me?"
 * ''"Then, you wretched fools... will learn the error of your ways!"
 * "I will ask you one last time... Will you serve me? If so, then I will forgive you for this..."
 * ''"What are these vile voices?"
 * "You wretched little girl! You would disobey me?!?"
 * "Very cunning, princess! But you will not undo me! Know me as your queen!"
 * "Enough! This ends now!"

 * You're the one who's going to suffer, Crump! No matter how many times we do this!"
 * "I'm with Mario all the way! Today, Sis, I'M going to punish YOU! You hear me?!?"
 * "I'm sorry, Sis..."
 * "G-Grodus..."
 * "We aren't going to let that happen!"
 * "Can you hear them, Mario? So many voices..."
 * "I... I feel completely revitalized!"
 * "Time to suffer, Queen!"

 * "Let's leave these wusses, Gonzales..."
 * "So, this loser is the leader of those X-Nauts?"
 * "So, that last Crystal Star we got on the Moon... NO! We're IDIOTS!"
 * "Not gonna happen, pal!"
 * "Gonzales serves nobody! Right?"

 * "Gonzales, LOOK!!!"
 * "Whoa, what IS this? I feel insanely pumped up and full of energy all of a sudden!"
 * "Time for payback!"
 * Gonzales... No, wait. I've gotta stop doing that. It's MARIO, right? Well, you'll always be Gonzales to me, man! Because I was born in the Glitz Pit, and the Great Gonzales is, and always will be, the champ. So, let's meet again, Gonzales! I mean it, man!"
