By enemy lines I don't mean what they say in scripted conversations, but the more general lines they may come out with while patrolling, or hunting or chasing you.
I think mine is in the Opera house in TG. An archer, after he had spotted me, shouted 'I hope you like tragic endings!'
Also like the Hammers' 'Vigilance is our shield...' when said just before you blackjack them.
As for death cries, I think the Mages give out a most satisfying 'noooooooo.....'
The Bug-beasts also make a good sound when they go down :)

I like how all mechs speak in Karras' voice. "Thou / Shalt not escape / Wretched creature." Or this "Karras hath forged me perfectly. I am the holy vessel that pleases the Builder. Praise Karras!" :)
The masked servants are one of the creepiest NPCs in Thief for me, especially with that echo they speak. "Let me out, let me go free" and "Thank you" when you kill them. Also their constant crying is chilling.
The inverted speech of hammer apparitions.
The haunts speech. "Join us, join us, join us now!"

"Too much coffees this morning... Im twitchy as HELL."
"I shouldnt even be here, I should be... in a game or something!"
"Ring the alarm, 'gainst this villain..."
"I give thanks for my ears, yay though evil do oft visit them. They are Karras' gift unto me, and I thank him, with my... unending services!"

Some new lines from FMs are also great! :)
"I don't know why everybody hates rats so much... I like rats. A little crunchy, but tastes fine to me!" - T2X guard
"When I find you, you won't be so hidden... yeah!" - T2X smuggler
"Holy crap!" - Pomok from CoSaS
"Come here, you big pink elephant, you!" - drunk drom CoSaS

The booming mages are pure eargasm:
"The air...speaks to me."
"Sweet silence returns."
"I shall build shelters from the Winds, feel the countless Waters, see the vast Earth, and burn in Eternal Fires." *cozy*

"If he's dead, you wish you were"
"Better you than me"

"I'll flatten thee!!!" - angry hammerite
"That's not loot you're carrying!" - surprised thief
"Come on out, I won't hurt you. Much." - angry thief
"You're a pincushion now, taffer!" - angry archer
"Praaaaaaise to Karras . . . and the Builder." :cheeky:

I haven't heard them in a while, not having played T2 in three years, but I do remember them. SPOILER ALERT the first time I played Soulforge I actually thought the game had glitched, when the Mechanists where speaking with the Servant voices :)
This also reminds me of another game They Hunger, a mod for Half-Life, and unalerted zombies would sometimes say to themselves 'Why do we hunger?' which I also found creepy. And of course there is SS2's 'I'm sorry!' and 'Kill me!' as infected crew are attacking you.
On another note, I find it amusing when they say out of place things. Like when a Mage exclaims that the Towers have been invaded, or whatever the line is, even though we are in Lost City and there are no towers. Or 'there's an intruder in the building' when said outdoors such as in the Mage gardens. Or most amusingly, when the downwinders are attacking spiders in Thieves Guild and calling them Garrett :)

Those masked guards are even creepier.

LOL, so true! The voicesets for noblemen were created for TG Opera level and then LGS just used those voices in T2. Sometimes you can hear "The rats around here perform more than we do", which made sense in the opera level, but outside it is so out-of-place!

"All quiet now. Must've been rats"
