General

 * Yeah?
 * What?
 * A fool's tongue is long enough to cut his own throat.
 * Yeah, I sleep when I'm dead.
 * He who loans a minute owes a year in interest.
 * Feels like my stitches are popping.
 * A wooden neck is tough to bend.
 * Many a one says ill that sleeps well.
 * Where there's carrion, there are crows.
 * A part off-center the well is broken at last.
 * What is to be, will be.

Day 1

 * (Bachelor) That Changeling lass was faster than you. Sent her regards.
 * (Bachelor) Nah, that ain't no simple lass. Got a keen eye for playing tricks. Takes one to know one.
 * (Haruspex) That doctor's quick on the draw, eh? He fought someone already. I can spot a jail bird a mile away.
 * (Haruspex) The city boy grabbed too much power for his own good. This ain’t gonna end well.
 * (Changeling) Whoa! Isidor's son has proven himself. Not a man to be trifled with. A villain; a kindred spirit.
 * (Changeling) So, Ripper's done away with everyone. Serves them rebels right. Let the man dream big.

Day 2

 * (Bachelor) They're carvin' up the Town. It's clear who's gonna bag the prize. The Kains aren't getting back on their feet any time soon, and Vlad keeps mum. Got a finger in the pie, that's for sure.
 * (Bachelor) Saburov will regret this. Haste makes waste.
 * (Haruspex) If only we knew who did away with your Pa. We'd spare that mongrel nothin’.
 * (Changeling) Nice and cozy, eh? Saburovs have you under their wing now. Got yourself a trump card.

Day 3

 * (Bachelor) They say 'tis neither pox nor cholera. Too soon to measure for a coffin then. Hahaha. The business will flourish.
 * (Bachelor) I hope it's anything but what happened five years ago. There's no cure from the Sand Pest.

Day 4

 * (Bachelor) People get buried already. For real. So, it's the Plague.
 * (Bachelor) Changeling has grassed on Ripper, eh? That's a sly fox if I ever saw one. Trust the first comer not. She'll have her way with you, too.
 * (Haruspex) A spooky fellow, that Bachelor. Remedy worse than the disease itself. He'd swallow us whole!
 * (Changeling) Them Souls-and-a-Half are a bold lot. But did they think Barley's gonna play tag with them? Game over, fellas.

Day 5

 * (Bachelor) Where are they takin' the stiffs? Throwin' into the river once again, to drown the Town?
 * (Bachelor) Var the Usurer is starting a war unusual. Just nail Barley down, and here we go, all around.
 * (Haruspex) So. Bachelor never got the innocents out of the jail, did he? That double-dealing serpent!
 * (Changeling) Haruspex has cut Willow open. Andrey will never let him get away with this. Another one with loose fists, that guy. We'll see who wins a tug of fist.

Day 6

 * (Bachelor) Who will they send upon us? Orff? Karminsky? Peter Kroy? Oh, how our heads will roll.
 * (Bachelor) Albino, Changeling and the Rat belong to the same pack. Fiends, all of them.
 * (Haruspex) The arsonists have attacked the Termitary. All Bachelor's doing, ‘course. Would not for him, Var never would have given the go-ahead on this.
 * (Changeling) What do you want, thief darling? Looking for your kind? It’s your lucky day, then.
 * (Changeling) Bachelor’s trying to catch the maneater once again. He’s getting good at it. Won’t screw up this time.

Day 7

 * (Bachelor) That Inquisitor, though. Walking around everywhere just like this. Ordered to unlock the Termitary, too.
 * (Bachelor) Ripper is the smartest of them all. From zero to hero.
 * (Haruspex) Bachelor and the Inquisitor. Two wiseacres sharin’ a perch. That’ll get the ball rollin’ for sure.
 * (Changeling) So, Burakh has made his panacea after all. That guy! I thought he was all talk.

Day 8

 * (Bachelor) The trollop has us all over a barrel. Ain't gonna go our way now, and we own the Town.
 * (Bachelor) So, Haruspex got to the Foreman. Whether he realizes it or not, one of them lives, the other dies.
 * (Haruspex) What is he trying to find down below? It's so beneath him.

Day 9

 * (Bachelor) This month's train was fat and fancy. First class stock.
 * (Bachelor) The Kains seem to be up to something, flaunting their dearly departed like this. I'd like to have a look.
 * (Haruspex) Take heed: The Foreman will grill you. Grill him instead. He'll sing like a canary.
 * (Changeling) Bachelor came back from the Tower all blissed up. As if they taught him how to fly there, no less.

Day 10

 * (Bachelor) Rumor has it Bos Turokh has appeared in the Lot. So, the latest wasn't the last. That be lovely.
 * (Bachelor) So, Rubin is alive. I thought him dead.
 * (Changeling) Kids won't leave the Tower. Shame if it'll have to go down. ‘Cause, you know. Kids.

Day 11

 * (Bachelor) Well, ain't that a mess. Kin on Kin, soldier on soldier. A full on fratricide. And the cannons will chime on any moment.
 * (Bachelor) Clara says that the Town will be left untouched if some of us petty folks find the courage to die. She can arrange that somehow.
 * (Changeling) So, Burakh has withstood the trial, eh? Godspeed to the man, walkin’ tall.

Day 12

 * A dreamless man is a soulless man. We are a humble lot, we stick to no paths. Do as you will.
 * If there's enough people like me, the Town will stay the same. We'll surrender ourselves to Clara unrepentant. A rotten life belongs to the new Mistress.

= Pathologic 2 =


 * Some are wise. Others, otherwise.
 * Neither above nor below the ground can Heaven or Hell be found!
 * What?
 * Yeah?
 * Wisdom's good to possess - better still's his cleverness.
 * That doctor's quick on the draw. Already shot someone! So much for his "oath".
 * The city boy's bit off more than he can chew. Won't end well.
 * If only we knew who did away with your father... we'd spare the beast nothing.
 * For what the devil can't do, send a woman.
 * I've heard of this "love" thing, alright. Never seen it, though.
 * Ugh. The Kains shouldn't mess around with my railroad's ties. Such labour is beneath them.
 * And Vlad stays quiet... has his finger in the pie, I'm sure.
 * A well honed tongue breaks bone.
 * Where are they tossing the stiffs? Into the river once more? All those bodies would drown the town!
 * Var the usurer wages war on all poorer. Just nailed Barley down - here we go, all around!
 * Talk's cheap. Sow what you reap.
 * The Ripper's outsmarted everyone! From down and out, to talk of the town!
 * The wench has us all over a barrel. Nothing to be done about it now.
 * This month's train was loaded! Top shelf product!
 * Hmm... need to light a fire under this town.
 * There once was a man of great humour, who found he was dead of a tumour. But he woke up today, to his neighbour's dismay, and that of his cow once he took her! Heheh!
 * Nice and cozy, aren't you? The Saburovs have you under their wing, now. Got yourself a trump card.
 * Kids won't leave the Tower. Would be a shame if it collapsed. Because. You know. Kids.
 * A fool's tongue is long enough to hang them.
 * Time enough to rest after death.
 * Lose an hour, and you won't catch up in a year.
 * Feels like my stitches are popping...
 * Many who sleep well, speak ill.
 * Where there's carrion, there's crows.
 * A jug sent to the well often is soon smashed.
 * What must be, will be.
 * My path was not called  'The Spider '. No, think wider. It was  'The Silkworm '! The end of a railroad, I pulled strings firm; unaware someone more cunning pulled mine upstairs.
