'Urgal! Witness a Teblor's rage!'
'Come closer,' Karsa challenged in a low voice, 'and I will show you the extent of my recovery.'
'I, Karsa Orlong, invite you to send a thousand of your warriors to wage war with the Uryd. None shall return, but the trophies will remain with us. Send two thousand. It matters not.'
'Move from my path or I will kill you all.'
Think this one is my favorite.

'I am the Shield Anvil.' I am Fener's grief. I am the world's grief. And I will hold. I will hold it all, for we are not yet done. <Itkovian>
'We are not born innocent, simply unmeasured.' <Hull Beddict>
'Because a god visits her, Fist. He comes to break her heart. Again and again.'<Nether>
'Fucking dragon.' <Fiddler>
Take my breath. But not this one, not this one. <Apsalar>
'Aye.' It's a good word. I think. More a whole attitude than a word, really. With lots of meaning in it, too. A bit of 'yes' and a bit of 'well fuck' and maybe some 'we're all in this together.' So a word to some up the Malazans. <Sunrise>

karsa is known to say some badass shit indeed... especially in later books. One of my favorites:
"I will not fight you. You are not my enemy." (or something like that. Pretty scary thing, when he stand in front of a whole Malazan army in later books)
"A teblor does not kneel!" (probably one of the funniest scenes with Karsa in them ever. You'll notice it when you read it
)

Very humorous in BH:
Karsa bared his teeth. "I have decided the Malazans are no longer my enemy. if they cannot accept that, I will kill them all."
I ROFLBANSHEED until my throat was sore...

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.

Too many words.
Also when Karsa says, "Too many words," to Torvald Nom.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

Reminder: This is the HoC forum.
If it just stays minor and doesn't give stuff away, fine, but nothing that hints what he does in later books etc please.
Pre-emptive reminder.

I think the comment from Karsa that had me laughing the loudest was the following exchange he had with Silgar...
‘I have the fresh water, not you—’
‘A good point. I shall have to kill you, then, since you have decided to stay here. We might need that water, after all. You won’t, because you will be dead.’
Deadpan classic!
