• Sephiroth : Your geostigma is gone... That's too bad.

  Cloud : Sephiroth, what do you want?

  Sephiroth : The last thoughts of Geostigma's death... those remnants will join the lifestream and girdle the planet; choking it; corroding it. What I want, Cloud, is to sail the cosmos with this planet as my vessel. Just as Mother did long ago. then one day we'll find a new planet and on it's soil we'll create a shining future.

  Cloud : What about this planet?

  Sephiroth : Well... That's up to you, Cloud.

• [to Cloud] 

  Tifa Lockhart : You're gonna give up and die, is that it?

  Tifa Lockhart : So it is...

  Cloud : There's no cure.

  Tifa Lockhart : Yeah, but that's not stopping Denzel is it? Don't run. Lets fight it together. We can help each other, I know we can. I guess that only works for real families.

• Cloud : [to Zack]  I said I'd live both our lives... Easier to make that promise...

• Cloud : Tifa, I'm not fit to help anyone. Not my family, not my friends, nobody.

  Tifa Lockhart : [sighs]  Dilly-dally, shilly-shally... Dilly-dally, shilly-shally!
