"All in one and one in all." "All we have is yours." "Calm yourself!" "Comes a man? It is! The Freeman!" "Communion of the Vortessence. And that other: a deeper mystery. No deeper than the void itself." "Could you but see the eyes inside your own, the minds in your mind, you would see how much we share." "Far distant eyes look out through yours." "For a brief time you joined with us. You are one. Between the worlds." "How many are there in you? Whose hopes and dreams do you encompass?" "How often have we slipped our yoke, only to find it choking us again." "If you are truly the Freeman, we salute you." "Is this the Freeman we see before our eyes?" "Let this war end in either total victory or our extinction. No further compromise shall we allow." "No pit is complete without a Freeman coming out of it." "Node and nexus, feed upon this life!" "Our cause seems hopeless." "Our life is worthless unless spent on freedom." "Our purpose is mutual." "Perhaps we will serve you better here." "Something secret steers us both. We shall not name it." "That sharp spur of hope has not dulled to this day. For once the lesser master lay defeated, we knew the greater must also fall in time." "The Combine will pay in kind for their depravity." "The way ahead is dark for the moment." "There is more to the Freeman than meets the eye." "There is no distance between us. No false veil of time or space may intervene." "This is more than anyone can bear, but we will persevere." "Undeserving of consciousness." "Unity of purpose, the shattering of common shackles, a single road we tread." "We are a tapestry woven of Vortessence. It is the same for you if only you would see it." "We are still here." "We are there still, in observance of your final stroke." "We are you, Freeman. And you are us." "We bear witness to the bright eternity of the Nihilanth's demise. You leap, you fall, we see you flash beyond the barriers." "We call you sib, although your mind and meaning are a mystery to us." "We cannot forget those whose cords you cut. Forgiveness is not ours to bestow." "We cannot read the Freeman's optical buds." "We dedicate ourselves to your purpose." "We deem this company inviolable." "We fear we have failed you." "We have dreamed of this moment." "We have endured these chafing bonds for eons, yet a single moment of further servitude seems intolerable!" "We have lost all dear to us." "We have survived darker times." "We have survived worse across the ages." "We know you." "We never dreamed to meet you in corporeal form." "We remember the Freeman. We are coterminous." "We see you still in Black Mesa. Clearly we see you in the Nihilanth's chamber." "We serve the same mystery." "We take our stand beside you, here, upon this miserable rock." "We will put aside Black Mesa... for now." "What seems to you a sacrifice is merely, to us, an oscillation. We do not fear the interval of darkness." "While our own lay scattered at your feet, you severed the vortal cord that bound the Nihilanth to life, and to us." "With you beside us, a talisman of victory, the day of freedom draws nigh." "You have brought us grief and jubilation beyond measure." "You humans, always in the qualidity." "You must remember us from Black Mesa." "Your bright face obscures your darker mask." "Your companionship is greatly belabored." "Your mind is opaque." "Your song we sing and shall sing for eternity. No matter the consequences of this struggle."
