==''[[Halo: The Fall of Reach]]''==
===Chapter two===
*"Winning," - To [[Catherine Halsey|Dr. Halsey]], who asked him what he was doing.
*"Yeah, but they made me play chess last week. That got boring. It’s too easy to win. Or—can we play gravball? They don’t let me play gravball anymore, but maybe if you tell them it’s okay?"
*"Okay. I always win, though. That’s why they won’t let me play gravball anymore." - When asked by Dr. Halsey if he wants another game.
*"I get to keep [[quarter|it]], right? That’s what you said." - After winning the game
===Chapter four===
*"Okay, just try not to slow me down."
*"We’ll have to make a quick run for it. Make sure no one else gets there first.”
===Chapter five===
*"Dead is right, especially when you load them with rocks." - After [[Kelly-087]] tells she's a dead aim in snowball fight.
*"Hey, owl," - To [[Samuel-034|Sam-034]] who was hooting like an owl.
*"Sam, take three and scout the area. I don’t want any of the Chief’s surprises sneaking up on us."
*"I’ve been thinking that, too. Just keep your eyes and ears sharp." - To Sam, who said this exercise is too easy.
*"No one’s being left behind. We’re going to figure a way to get all of us out."
*"But there’s got to be a way—I just haven’t thought of one yet. Even if it has to be me that stays behind—I’ll make sure everyone gets back to the base."
*"Nothing can kill the Chief. But one thing’s for sure: I don’t think we can just walk up there and get a free ride back to the base."
*"Okay … we don’t know who these men are or what they’ll do when they see us. So we find out."
*"No one," - To Kelly, when asked who was getting left behind.
*"Sir, the guards were out of uniform. No insignia. They failed to identify themselves, sir!" - To [[Chief Petty Officer]] [[Franklin Mendez|Mendez]], explaining why he attacked UNSC guards.
===Chapter six===
*"I’m fine, ma’am. The nurse said the sedation would take effect soon. I’m fighting it to see how long I can stay awake. It’s not easy." - To Halsey, who asked if he's fine.
*"I know this is one of the Chief’s exercises. But I don’t know what the twist is. Can you tell me, Dr. Halsey? Just this time? How do I win?"
===Chapter seven===
*"Stand fast, Crewman. Where are you taking my men?" - To people who were bringing trainees who failed [[Project ASTER|augmentation process]] out.
*"What will happen to my men?"
*"That's all any of us ask for, sir: a chance to serve."
*"I was Squad Leader. The last mission was therefore my responsibility … and members of my squad died. What did I do wrong?"
===Chapter nine===
*"The rest of you fall out. You'll have the more difficult part of this mission: you'll have to wait here." - To Spartans he didn't choose for [[Operation: TALON]]

*"I don't miss, ma'am." - When Halsey told him he could miss by kilometers.
*"With respect, ma'am, it's a bigger risk to sit here and do nothing. After they finish with the ''Commonwealth'' ... they'll come for us and we'll have to fight them anyway. Better to strike first."
*"And if we don’t succeed, then power down your systems and wait for UNSC reinforcements to retrieve you. Live to fight another day. Don’t waste your lives." - To [[SPARTAN-II program|Spartans]], before [[Battle of Chi Ceti]]
*"You’ll have to stay and hold them off. That’s an order." - To Sam

*"I will answer to the best of my abilities, sir."
*"I can only offer my opinion, sir. I am not a scientist." - When asked to explain his thoughts.
*"I had extremely specific orders, sir. Orders that came directly from NavSpecWeap, Section Three." - When told that opportunities had been lost because of his action.
*"No, sir. I am simply stating that the destruction — of anything, including any ‘evidence’ — is a direct result of the detonation of a nuclear weapon. In full compliance with my orders. Sir." - When asked if he means that he destroyed evidences because he was ordered to.
*"Ma’am, a pleasure to see you again." - When seeing Halsey.

*"Automaton? Interesting choice of words for an artificial intelligence."
*"Ma'am! I'm up for [[Operation: RED FLAG|it]], ma'am!" - To Halsey, who said some people thought he's not ready for his mission.
*"I won't fail, doctor." - When told some may want him to fail.

===Chapter thirty-seven===
*"No!" - When [[Linda-058]] is severely wounded by plasma.
*"Get her inside!" - To marines, to protect Linda.
*"We're ready, Captain. I'm ready." - To Keyes, shortly after Linda's death.
*"Sir, I would not have left if my mission was incomplete." - To Keyes, when asked if he accomplished his mission.
*“Those symbols … I thought I had seen them somewhere before. It’s nothing.” - When asked if he's thoughtful.

*“I do not remember my name. I do not remember my family. I do not remember my home. But I can remember the game. We played it everyday. And I never lost. The game… it's the only thing I can remember about the life I had before I met Doctor Halsey. Since then, I have experienced a lifetime of combat. Through thirty years of war against alien aggressors… I have always known my fate. I knew someday I would die in battle. But now that it is here… now that it is time to die… I find I am not ready.” — Internal monologue, while having head crushed by the [[Ur-Didact]]

*"It's over." - To Escharum, who told him to fight him.
*"They've been waiting outside the planet for three years?"

*"Asking's not my strong suit."
*"There will be consequences. There always are."
*"[[Requiem]]. At least we know where we are now."
*"That can't be right. Scan again."

* "What happened to the Guardian?"
*"Planning for what?"
* "Thank you."
*"Can I defeat the Didact without [[Geas|it]]?"
* "Keep your eye out for the Guardian that Cortana sent. We can't risk having it black out ''Infinity''."
*"It's a long story, but I know what the Didact's after."
* "The Arbiter said they had reports of Forerunner soldiers pacifying cities that showed active resistance to the Guardian."
*"Sierra One One Seven to Infinity, what's our status?"
*"Does Infinity have a shot on the gravity well?"
*"Sir, we've seen what [[the Didact]] is capable of. If we let him leave this world, humanity will be at risk."
*"With all due respect Sir, I ''know'' what I saw."
*"The Didact has to be stopped. If [[Andrew Del Rio|you]] won't do that... I will."
*"No, Sir."

*"What can we do to keep the Covenant out?"
*"The device you recovered was a Forerunner weapon. The commander of [[Mantle's Approach|that ship]] wants it back."
*"We don't have any choice, doctor."
*"If we can't move the Composer, we have to make sure the Didact can't either."

*"Ready or not, I need it now!"
*"Cortana, see if you can raise Tillson. Get me a status on the rest of the station."  
*"Cortana, I need that info! (''sigh'') Look... don't think about the Didact. Don't think about the Composer. Only focus on finding me Tillson."
