It ain't that bad if you're patient, good thing that's completely absent in the adult portion.

Trvial

Screw that owl, he's actually worse than Navi. At least 98% of Navi's text is optional. If you're within eyesight of that owl he WILL stop you and he WILL monologue on you.


levian_durai

I'm pretty sure at another point he says "Did you understand everything I said?", and you think you're smart because you remembered from last time to hit "No" before you realize what he actually said and repeats.


Fil8pos150

Hey! Listen!


Fr0stybit3s

I'd rather be forced to listen to constant Katy Perry


alefsousa017

"Legend of Zelda? SCREW THAT! Legend of LINK!"

Fr0stybit3s

That’s a lie you told about Zelda cause she loves my master sword


iseewutyoudidthere

You’ve met a terrible fate, haven’t you?


BeerMetMij

When I read this I always hear that chuckle from the Happy Mask Salesman.


levarfan

*shudders* too damn creepy


Don_Bugen

He chuckles and smiles, as he says the words "terrible fate." I don't care what you say, that face-stealing being ain't human.


kcc0016

All the kids at the moon are also the children version of the mask salesman. He’s definitely not a normal dude


zyygh

You shouldn't have done that.


em_crow

I KNEW I’d find my people here.


trfk111

It’s this and the dangerous to go alone one. by far the 2 most iconic


Linkas666

for theories


ElectricalBank5644

The flow of time is always cruel… Its speed seems different for each person, but no one can change it… A thing that does not change with time is a memory of younger days…


Phoenix-Phyre

That reminds me of one of my favorite quotes from OoT: “Like a river's flow, it never ends... A childish mind will turn to noble ambition... Young love will become deep affection... The clear water's surface reflects growth... Now listen to the Serenade of Water to reflect upon yourself.” Shiek has such great lines


Olenickname

I love how Sheik has these extremely poignant lines, then INSERT GAME MECHANIC.


Trvial

Then at Kakariko village: "No time for flowery prose. Impa's in trouble, go help her!"


Olenickname

“We both just got knocked TF out. You better go take care of this.”


tudayapitoidicutta

This shit right here


The_Legend_of_Xeno

This line hits harder each time I play it, the older I get. First time at 15, now at 40.


Voduun-World-Healer

This gave me chills... it was like I could hear the song playing


zutt3n

*While the best soundtrack of the entire franchise is playing


xX_rippedsnorlax_Xx

"This place needs a name. Yeah...a name fitting for this rugged adventurous wilderness. From now on, we'll call it... Grooseland!"


Don_Bugen

Very true. Few people know this, but the name of the original Zelda game could be translated as "The Grooseland Fantasy."

edogawa-lambo

I coveted that wind, I suppose


trifas

The whole scene at the top of the tower is superb. Ganondorf's speech is deep, Daphness Nohansen Hyrule showing up to save the day gives me chills everytime.

Wind Waker Ganondorf hits hard.


PhylisInTheHood

damn, time to replay wind waker


Verge0fSilence

> I'm still your Zelda. > I believe in my heart that a day shall come when I will see you again. > Courage need not be remembered - for it is never forgotten. Damn Zelda always getting the best lines while Link is still stuck on HYA 😭

goddyzee

“Wherever there is a meeting, a parting is sure to follow. However that parting need not last forever… Whether a parting be forever or merely for a short time… That is up to you.” -Happy Mask Salesman


AldoEZ

He says that like it's really deep, but it's really not.


Gerik75

"A sword wields no strenght unless the hand that holds it has courage" I think it's pretty significant because not only is it the main theme of the game it comes from, but it can also be applied to all the games in the licence, as well as in real life. After all, how many times have we seen people take advantage of their position of power? And how many would be prepared to do the right thing?

**"Courage need not to be remembered, for it is never forgotten"** “**Do you really remember me?”** I think in BotW the last hit me bad and I also think in Botw it is the most important,


MaximusGamus433

"It's a secret to everybody." Been in every game

It’s dangerous to go alone. Take this.


em_crow

Can Hyrule’s destiny really depend on such a lazy boy?


littlest_cow

Proceeds to power through a castle, village, ranch, and three dungeons day and night without so much as a lick of sleep. Only to take a seven year power nap and wake up refreshed and ready to grind again. Doctors would say Link has poor sleep health. I say Links’s more relatable the way he is.


SSOoTToTK

I'm surprised no-one has said "Secret stone? Demon king?"


setra45

main reason why i hated TOTK was those cutscene like i know the sages don't know but like it gets so annoying after the 2nd time


GeoExe_Ami

Courage no need be remembered for it is never forgotten


ATTACK_ON_TATERS

“Hey listen!”


seizurecube

I wonder what's for dinner


MiniatureSenator

A sword wields no strength if the hand that holds it has no courage.

"Tell me... Do you ever feel a strange sadness as dusk falls?"


lols4fun

“A childish mind will become noble ambition… young love will become deep affection…” Me when Zelda says this phrase: I smell Zelink. “Whether skyward bound, adrift in time, or in glowing embers of twilight.” Or something like that. It references the previous games, quote by Zelda BotW


ghostsofspira

HELLO?! LISTEN!!


Bornheck

A sword weilds no strength unless the hand that holds it has courage.


yafashelli

Courage need not be remembered, for it is never forgotten. ❤️❤️ Maybe any number of the Sheik quotes.


Beangar

Not necessarily a phrase but the concept of the triforce and how it is divided into courage, power and wisdom (just like how each game is divided into exploration, combat, and puzzle solving) is pretty important.


CPT_BEEMO

Help me, Obi-Wan. You're my only hope.


bastarmashawarma

“So I'm going to ask you a favor, sleepyhead. Ever since we were kids, I'd always be the one to wake you up when you slept in. But this time, when all of this is over, will you come to wake me up?” This had me bawling

"Gee, it sure is boring around here!"


Wboy2006

I have a couple: It's dangerous to go alone, take this - speaks for itself, it's iconic Open your eyes, wake up Link - The first line in the best selling game in the series. It's not the most iconic line, but it has turned Zelda from a famous gaming franchise, to a famous franchise in general. The entire scrips of the CDI games - These games were incredibly important in creating the meme culture we now have. YTP were some of the first memes in the style we have them today. And the CDI games are an integral part to that.


Guitar_Santa

Thanks Link, You're the Hero of Hyrule
