The description of the king's Fall quest step for completing the raid:
""Toland, stop recording this. Fine, fine. Whatever. A toast, then! To the best damned fireteam I've ever worked with. We may not be the smartest. And we may not be the bravest. But we are the dumbest! To victory!" - Sai Mota, the night before they went into the pit"
I don't know why but I really like it.
Edit: Wow, this post really got popular. Feel free to post your own favorite bit of lore, flavor text, grimoire, or whatever in here.

The Frabjous cloak used to by my favorite, but now it's [i]"I always target the taken Psion first. That way I only use one bullet instead of 20." ---Cayde-6[/i] from Warden's Hood, because I despise Taken Psions.

My two favorite armor descriptions: "Mm, yes, a fine cloak. But I have a supercompressed supercollider on my arm. Can your cloak split quarks?" - Wearable Collider bond "At the edge of the singularity, light freezes, unable to face the mystery. But you must go on." - Song of the Light bond

As a part time math tutor, I feel like this statement by Toland the Shattered from Darkness 3 sums my experience up nicely. HOW DO I EXPLAIN IT it's so simple WHY DON'T YOU SEE

Legend: The Black Garden - still my favourite card. [quote]At the end of the path grew a flower in the shape of a Ghost. I reached out to pluck it and it cut me with a thorn. I bled and the blood was Light. The Ghost said to me: You are a dead thing made by a dead power in the shape of the dead. All you will ever do is kill. You do not belong here. This is a place of life. The Traveler is life, I said. You are a creature of Darkness. You seek to deceive me. But I looked behind me, down the long slope where the blossoms tumbled in the warm wind and the great trees wept sap like blood or wine, and I felt doubt.[/quote]

Edited by MotorCityCamaro: 10/30/2016 3:04:25 AMI like the descriptions of some peaces of warlock armor I can't remember the exact wording but one is something along the lines of I never shake hands with warlocks I'm afraid they will vaporize me. And another one is like He came at me with a knife and I, just so, made him into ash.

Can't find it but it's a cabal transmission regarding the popularity of gjally and dancing guardians. It's so funny.

My favorite is "Long ago, a legend foretold the ascension of the raisins. Find the three-eyed one, it said. Disperse among the bearers of light. And wait. If you are worthy, if you are patient, if you are not lost or thrown away, you will ascend. And the raisins waited quietly. Now they rise." - Ascendant Raisins grimoire card.

When quoting text where a character speaks, use apostrophes. Ex: "Detaching itself from the sweet treats and dancing Guardians, the sweeper bot lamented, 'Who is the thief?'"

"They're Guardians, Quist. Means the Light has cooked their brains. Haven't you seen them dancing in the Plaza, for no reason, with no music at all?"

"In it's dying breath, the traveller created ghost; to open doors." -Eris Morn omnighoul strike

I have 2 favorites, the flavor text for purifier robes and the nanomania mask, pretty good description of fire, and an ominous take on SIVA, very interesting

Good one! I think me and Toland would have gotten along just fine. There's a hunter cloak to back this up further: [i]Toland cracked the rune, or led us to believe he did. I told him it was either that, or the Hive have a hell of a recipe for beer.[/i]" - Omar Agah.

Sai Mota is definitely a person I would want to befriend.
