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!"

Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

 * "Looks like the aroma of your new drink has drawn out all the ghosts in the place."
 * "Welcome to my Starbeans Cafe!"
 * "Seeing you two... This is a most unexpected chance meeting!"
 * "Have you tried the drinks made by my latest invention: the wondrous Beanbean Machine?"
 * "Its stimulating flavor will put a spicy tingling in your cheeks. ...Yes, quite a tingling, indeed."
 * "Hmm... The rich, aromatic fragrance of that drink..."
 * "I sense that it's a drink that even I haven't partaken of..."
 * "May... May I have a drink?"
 * "Hmm... A delicately bitter flavor, but one that makes me crave more."
 * "This stuff gives me the energy to push my ghost research into a new dimension!"
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "Well, I hope you will continue to frequent my fine cafe."
 * "I'm always happy to have friends partake of the fine flavors produced by my Beanbean Machine."
 * "Oooh, mercy! Yet another fragrantly rich aroma!"
 * "It's not timing that brought me here. No sirree!"
 * "The scent of that new drink drew me in. Yep! From over the hills and across the sea, I came walking."
 * "Now then, might I have a quick sampling of this new drink?"
 *  "Delicious!"  
 * "This may be the next big drink!"
 * "You've brewed well!"
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "Hmm!"
 * "Hmm... Oh... Oog... All of a sudden I have a bad tummy-ache..."
 * "...Perhaps this drink I just drank is the cause of this ache..."
 * "...Further proof that every rose has its thorn..."
 * "Oooooh... Ohh... Uh-oh. WHERE'S THE RESTROOM?!?"
 * "Heeeeeeeeeee!"
 * "Oh! Th-That's my Poltergust 3000! L-Luigi!"
 * "Are you planning on being the janitor around here?!?"
 * "Heeeeeeeeeeee!"
 * "Once again I've come from afar because of the scent of a new kind of bean juice!"
 * "This is a highly improved model of the Poltergust 3000... It's the Super Poltergust 3001!"
 * "If you've just got to know the improvements I've made..."
 * "It can now be ridden like this!"
 * "And it's incredibly speedy!"
 * "With this, now I can go anywhere I want with ease."
 * "Now then, might I have a quick sampling of this new drink?"
 * "Mmmm... My vody and soul are melting into the syrupy sweetness!"
 * "I'd better not drink more or else I, too, might become a ghost."
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "What shall I invent next?"
 * "...No, no! This time I've chosen a slightly different way of making my entrance."
 * "Hmm? What? Well, just showing up the same way over and over gets old after a while."
 * "Besides, don't video conferences feel futuristic and cool?"
 * "Oh, don't worry! I've sent a representative to taste it in my stead!"
 * "He should be arriving soon."
 * "Don't worry. He's a harmless, friendly little ghost."
 * "Please allow him to taste that new drink..."
 * "Oh! Mercy! It seems to have been just heavenly."
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "Next time I'll come in person."
 * "...Ho ho ho! Surprise! Yet another video conference!"
 * "Promises are made to be broken. I'm too busy with my research."
 * "Ho ho ho... No, there's no need for that."
 * "Listen here. This brand-new Game Boy Horror boasts a new warping capability!"
 * "Just bring the new bean juice and place it before the monitor."
 * "Ho ho! The warp was successful!"
 * "Oh! Another mind-numbingly deep flavor!"
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "Next time, I really will be there in person."
 * "Well, here I am...in the flesh! It's been quite a while since I've seen you all here."
 * "No, no, no! I'm just testing my latest invention: a gown that lets anybody become a ghost."
 * "By wearing this gown, you can become a ghost anytime, anyplace, anywhere you want!"
 * "Yep. And while I may be a ghost, I can still taste new drinks."
 * "Hmm... This is a mysteriously dim, short-lived flavor..."
 * "It's just the kind of bean juice that'll attract the long-overlooked market of after-lifers!"
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "Heeeeeeeeeee!"
 * "Thanks for that sampling. Here's a little something I invented in my spare time. Maybe it'll aid you."
 * "Heeeeeeeeeee!"

Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

 * "No need to worry yourself. My machine's safe as can be."
 * "Why, there's a 99. 999999999% chance the princess will return!"
 * "No need to worry, my boy!"
 * "My time machine will return. I'm 99. 999999% positive!"
 * "Well, take a gander at that! The time machine's returned!"
 * "Something's amiss, though... What could've gone wrong?"
 * "Just take er' easy, now. She wasn't this feller's breakfast."
 * "My DS time radar puts Peach somewhere in the Mushroom Kingdom of yesteryear."
 * "That I don't know. And with the time machine this dinged up, we're not going anywhere."
 * "What's that? Calm down and speak slowly! A mysterious hole has appeared in the garden ?"
 * "Hmm... It's possible the return of the machine tore holes in the time continuum..."
 * "To the garden, fellers!"
 * "As I suspected..."
 * "IT'S A TIME HOLE!"
 * "Yessiree, this time hole is a doorway to the past!"
 * "No doubt about it, it appeared because of that time machine."
 * "Careful there, young feller! If I'm right, that time hole leads back in time!"
 * "Yep, to a younger Mushroom Kingdom. Question is, to WHERE in the Mushroom Kingdom?!"
 * "The other question is, if a feller were to jump in, could he even make it back..."
 * "Hm? Use this time hole to rescue the princess?"
 * "Hmm... Now there's an idea."
 * "I'd bet dollars to donuts that's our best chance at saving her."

Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon

 * "Greetings, Luigi! I knew our paths would cross again."
 * "What're ya scared of, sonny? It's only just a few harmless ghosts. Well...a few hundred ghosts. And they’re not exactly harmless."
 * "But looky here – With my brains and your...ah...your... Hmm. We're in a bit of a pickle here, aren't we?"
 * "Ho ho! That terrified look in your eye just gave me a great idea. From now on, I’m going to call the DS — this is genius — the Dual Scream! Ho ho! Oho! Dual Scream! Hooo..."
 * "Why the long face, Luigi? Well, genetics, I suppose..."
 * "I won't have to ask you to leave now...because you've already shown yourself the door!"
 * "Luigi? Where are you going? You need to take the elevator down into the Cellar!"
 * "Luigi! What’s wrong with you, boy! Are you chickening out? Get to the Cellar!"
 * "Luigi... Read my lips: GET TO THE CELLAR! POSTHASTE!"
 * "If this whole ghost-hunting thing doesn't work out, you may have a future as a plumber!"
 * "I tried to locate that confounded canine with the Parascope, but the doggone dog's gone!"
 * "Luigi, sometimes I wonder about you, son. You went to all that trouble finding the special compass...just to ignore your map? Get your rear in gear!"
 * "Ghosts tend to gain power over time, and this Poltergeist seems to be absolutely ancient. I guess you could say...he has a lot of time on his hands!"
 * "Now, would you hand over that handy hour hand? Ho ho!"
 * "Luigi? Where do you think you're going, son? We've worked so hard for this moment! Open that blasted gate!"
 * "Luigi, the Clock Tower Gate is waiting to be opened. You're not scared of that possessor ghost, are you?"
 * "Luigi! Quit being such a... such a whippersnappin' ninny, and get to the Clock Tower!"
 * "That's the world of paranormal research for you – one minute you're having fun learning about ghosts... and the next minute you're running for your life, scurrying about like a headless chicken! I hope we never get to that point! Ho ho! What am I saying? You're always at that point!"
 * "No sign of the Toad, eh? He'd better not be fishing in that Fishing Hut out back. I'm not paying him to catch fish. Well, unless they're some kind of freaky ghost fish! Boy, wouldn't that be something?"
 * "But don't despair, son! Look on the bright side! You...um... You...ah... You...have a very bushy mustache!"
 * "I'm glad that the Toad curators are safe and sound. Although, I suppose this means I'll have to give them their paychecks now..."
 * "Chin up, young feller. We'll get your brother back. Although, I imagine his painting would fetch a pretty penny at an art auction. Ho ho! Just kidding, my boy!"
 * "I wonder how he escaped from his portrait in the first place! Hmm, maybe I shouldn't have sold it at the garage sale..."
 * "Hmm... I figured as much. Well, at least you got to sharpen your skills by facing off against the most powerful possessor again! Be honest, Luigi. You went back through that portal just for the adrenaline rush, didn't you? Ho ho! You've come a long way, you wild thrill seeker, you! Never thought I'd see the day!"
 * "The Dark Moon has been shattered, Luigi! We need to find it and restore peace to Evershade Valley, posthaste!" (Dark Moon Quest)
 * "I'll send all the ghosts and trinkets you collect during your adventure down the Vault for safekeeping. Check 'em out, sonny!" (E. Gadd's Vault)
 * "This nightmarish skyscraper full of ghostly challenges awaits you and your courageous friends! Can you battle your way to the top?" (ScareScraper)
 * "This hair-raising high-rise full of ghostly challenges awaits you and your fellow ghost hunters. Access it from the main menu!"
 * "When vacuuming up a ghost, you'll be able to charge the Power Gauge longer, weakening the ghost even more when you press !"
 * "Thanks to this upgrade, the Dark-Light Device won't overheat as quickly! Pretty cool, huh?"
 * "When vacuuming up a ghost, you can now charge the Power Gauge to full capacity before pressing !"
 * "The cooling component in the Dark-Light Device has reached its maximum efficacy now! Those ghosts can't hide from you!"
 * "Ta-da! The Super Poltergust! This new model will capture ghosts much faster than the old model."

Luigi's Mansion Arcade

 * "Simple controls let you stun foes AND suck them up with just the trigger!"
 * "This area is sealed by a strong paranormal energy."
 * "A creepy mansion buzzing with paranormal readings. Pull the trigger to select this stage."
 * "If you see any coins, hold down the Vacuum Trigger to gather them up."
 * "First, stun ghosts with the Strobulb, and then pull the Vacuum Trigger to suck 'em up!"
 * "Oh-ho! What was that noise? I'm picking something up over there... Go check it out!"
 * "It's a Greenie! It looks like the ghosts have really gone nuts!"
 * "If you pull at the ghosts in the opposite direction that they run, they can't get away."
 * "Luigi! These ghosts are pulling out new tricks!"
 * "That shield blocks the light from your Strobulb. Look for an opening and then flash it!"
 * "If you run into a lot of ghosts up ahead, don't be afraid to use your Strobombs!"
 * "Hurling a Strobomb at a group of enemies hits them all with a Strobulb flash!"
 * "Hmm, I'm getting a strong reading from beyond this foyer."
 * "The signal is coming from straight ahead, but it looks like there's two paths we can take."
 * "Flash your Strobulb on one of the panels to choose which way you want to go."
 * "It's a Slammer! It's going to take a bit more work to suck one of them up!"
 * "Watch out, sonny! It's a ghost!"
 * "It's Strobulb time! Press the Start Button and let 'em have it!"
 * "Defeating a ghost with the Power Surge from a charged-up Power Gauge gets you more coins!"
 * "I'm getting a reading from behind that door."
 * "Criminy! That Greenie's got the key! Hurry and get it back, or we're going nowhere!"
 * "Now where did that blasted Greenie go? It can't have gone far. Root it out!"
 * "Phew! I thought you were a goner, my boy! But it looks like you got the key back."

Luigi's Mansion 3

 * "Ah! If it isn't Luigi! You are precisely the last person I'd expect to find here. Hold that thought—now isn't the time to catch up. What matters is...you'll do nicely! Come on, Luigi. Get me out of here now! The hotel is filled to the brim with ghosts! Let's make a run for it! What was that? All of your friends have been captured?! And you can't just abandon them here, you say? You're the same as ever, I see. A bit of a handful... OK. I'm not thrilled about it, but I, Professor Elvin Gadd, have an idea! First things first, Luigi. We have to get to my car! Will you take me there? Hey. The new Poltergust G-00 you're wearing... You took that out of my car, right? We've got to get back to the underground garage. Let's go!"
 * "Luigi! I told you that the elevator is that way! Why even consider using the stairs when there is a perfectly good elevator?"
 * "Hey, Luigi! Look at that... It's money, and lots of it! Even with all the dangers here, I'm sure we agree that money is still important! The ghosts don't seem interested in grabbing it... What's the saying? "You can't take it with you"? Well, I definitely want it anyway! Keep your eyes peeled, and grab as much as you can! You know, while you're capturing ghosts and saving your friends. Multitasking!"
 * "Of all the... Someone has removed all the other elevator buttons! What's going on here? Hmm... A mystery for later, I suppose. Go ahead and give the B1 button a push. It didn't seem like any of your friends were trapped on 2F with me... They must have been taken to one of the floors higher up in the hotel. Which means... Yeah, we're going to need those elevator buttons." (when entering the elevator for the first time)
 * "Ho ho! Those are definitely the elevator buttons! I never would've guessed a ghost had taken them! But...there are only two. Maybe there are other ghosts out there with the rest of the buttons? No matter. Let's go to my car. I've got something very interesting that I want to show you!"
 * "Heh Heh Heh! Welcome to my lab! This is another of my brilliant inventions—a portable laboratory! It's sturdy, safe, and air conditioned! I always knew I'd need this one day. Good thing I brought it along with me, right? Hmm? You want to know what I'm doing in this hotel? It's a bit of a long story, but in short... I was tricked. I got an invitation from someone claiming to own this hotel. They said they had a precious collection of ghosts, gathered from all over the world! No self-respecting ghost researcher would pass up on such an appealing offer, obviously! I accepted their invitation, but when I arrived... The invitation was only a ruse! They captured me and took my precious ghost collection! Uuugh! That includes all those ghosts you'd worked so hard to catch for me before! Even King Boo! Losing him really got under my skin! He's my favorite... What? They've released King Boo?! Ugh! That hotel owner! What has she done?! Luigi! You're our only hope! Against all odds, without any hesitation, and at any cost...get my ghost collection back! And speaking of ghost collections, why don't you give me all of the ghosts you've captured so far! All right! Keep on catching those ghosts. Oh, and be sure to come back to the lab! I'll set up the gallery so that you can view the ghosts that you've captured! Hm? What's with that look, Luigi? Am I forgetting something important? Oh. Oh! That's right! I forgot about saving your friends and family. Completely and totally forgot. Regardless! To find ghosts and your friends, you'll need to explore this hotel! To help you out, I'll give you one of my greatest inventions yet! I call it...the Virtual Boo! VB for short! It's a state-of-the-art virtual-reality device fitted with a fancy red screen! Really cutting-edge stuff! And red is all the rage, you know? Just wait until I finish the marketing materials on this! It'll fly off the shelves! Heh heh heh! You can use the VB to communicate with me at any time. Hey, maybe we can test out the communications system later... Press to look into the VB. It'll display your current objective for you too. It's quite useful! Oh, and I have one more thing to give you. The very first thing you need to do is install this elevator tracker inside the elevator for me, OK? As for what it is... I'll tell you later! Go on and get it installed! Head for the elevator! I'm counting on you, Luigi!"
 * "Hey, it looks like you're stumbled across a Boo already! That's a sign that indicates there's a Boo nearby! Let me explain in more detail. Where are those note cards... You see, Gooigi's body is made of a material I've dubbed "Goo." Goo reacts to the frequency emitted by Boos. So if there's a Boo hiding nearby...the Goo will vibrate to indicate this! The closer you get to a Boo's location, the stronger the vibration will be. You'll definitely be able to tell when you're really close! Did that all make sense, Luigi? A strong vibration means a Boo is nearby! OK! Get out there and catch a lot of Boos! I'll start thinking about the best way to organize them..."
 * "Luigi, Boos are good at playing hide-and-seek! Shine some Dark-Light on the area to try to uncover them!"
 * "Hey, Luigi! If you find yourself needing to return to the lab quickly, I've got the perfect solution for you! I've streamlined a transfer system just for you! All you have to do is access the VB and select Lab, and we'll be face-to-face in an instant. The system goes both ways too! When you're ready to get back to your adventures, the system will return you to the same place you left! And that's all! Keep the transfer system in mind while you're out there exploring!"
 * "Sorry, I don't have any new information for you. Keep exploring the hotel! Do you need anything else, Luigi?"
 * "So you were also invited to this hotel, Luigi? Was it a pleasant letter that made the place sound so amazing that you absolutely had to come? They also wrote to me about having a fantastic collection of ghosts I could get my hands on, so I came here as soon as I was able! Obviously it was all a ruse to trap me... Did you want to speak to me? Or would you like to check out the log?"
 * "Stop fooling around, Luigi! Go to my room and get my briefcase! If you get turned around, you can always check the map using the VB..." (if Luigi takes too long to find the briefcase)
 * "Don't waste your time searching every room and looking in every little nook and cranny, Luigi! Certain ghosts leave traces behind in areas they've passed through. Use Dark-Light with, and check the walls and doors for clues!"
 * "Heh heh heh! It seems that you've also acquired a new elevator button, along with my briefcase! Well done, Luigi. Come on back to the lab!"
 * "Luigi, what are you doing? Hurry up and come back to the lab!"
 * "Luigi, it looks like you're able to get to 3F now! But before you head there, bring my briefcase back to the lab! I need it!"
 * ''"Welcome back, Luigi! My briefcase, chop-chop! Heh heh heh! This is what I wanted! The time has come to use it in battle! The latest invention from the brilliant mind of Professor E. Gadd! I give you... Gooigi! The development process was a real challenge, to say the least. Fortunately, I had a little help from someone to test the prototype! Hm? How is this going to help? Now, now. Take it easy. Here, Luigi! I'm going to attach this to the Poltergust G-00. Turn around for me, would you? OK! It's all set up! Luigi, let's practice a bit. Follow me outside! Heh heh heh! I've caught you in my trap, Luigi! Oh, don't worry! I'm just kidding! But I am going to need you to stay locked up. Why, you ask? Because I want you to use Gooigi to try to escape from your cell! You can activate Gooigi with . To recall him to his tank, press twice. Ta-da! Behold! This is your very own personal assistant, Gooigi! Gooigi can slip through tight spaces, like grates or vents. His body is incredibly soft and malleable. It's really quite amazing! Go out! See for yourself! There you go! He moves in basically the same ways you do, so controlling him shouldn't take much getting used to. Oh, and that reminds me! Pressing  once Gooigi is active will let you switch between him and yourself. Remember that! Heh heh heh! Gooigi isn't even remotely waterproof, Luigi! If he gets wet at all, he'll melt and disappear! Be careful with him around anything wet. Heh heh heh! Well done, Luigi! I feel like I can let you run loose with Gooigi! All right! We're done with your training, at least for now. Let's go back to the lab. Nice work, Luigi! Very impressive, I must say! That reminds me of something I wanted to tell you. I've been running the sensors in the lab, and they've detected the presence of a mysterious building. In fact, the ominous-looking tower is very close to this very hotel! Luigi, I know you really want to find all of your missing friends, but if you want a break from that, you could head over to the tower! It's probably crawling with ghosts that you can catch. Go on and test your skills there! For science! I've made arrangements so that you can access the tower from the lab. Just select ScareScraper in Multiplayer. Have fun! Oh! Wait! I just remembered something else! You can check out ScreamPark if you're feeling a little bit lonely and want to have some fun. Up to eight people can play and compete with one another! Fun! Heh heh heh! ...Oh right, you can get to a new floor now! Head to the elevator and take it to 3F!"''
 * "Luigi! The elevator can take you directly to Lobby 2F! You might as well head that way and check it out, I say."
 * "Oh, Luigi! You're finally back, eh? You shouldn't keep an old man waiting, y'know. Professor E. Gadd's Shopping Network is now open for business right here in the lab! Ta-daaaa! I've stocked some rather useful items. They're all yours...for a modest fee! Heh heh heh!"
 * "By the way, Luigi, here's a fun bit of trivia for you: every time you go through a door, all of your progress up to that point is saved. Automatically! But it might not be if you move too quickly from door to door to door to door to...You get the idea. I'd say waiting...10 seconds should be enough! You know what they say: patience is a virtue! Keep up the good work!"
 * "Luigi, did you see that? That security guard had an elevator button! It looks like he went into the security office. Follow him! Go!"
 * "Press to fire the Suction Shot, and take away his shield!"
 * "Let's go, boy! What did we see during your last training? Press while sucking, what does it tell you? That would allow you to switch between Gooigi and you. If one of you was sucking something, you will continue to do it! So you could suck, even blow, all the duets at the same time!"
 * "Luigi, look! That must be the megaphone! Looks like it's trapped in some spiderwebs! Those must be hearty webs..."
 * "Luigi? Are you leaving your friends behind? Wow. I mean...I didn't expect that. That's cold..."
 * "Luigi, don't forget about the elevator button!"
