Found this site where a player was translating dialog into Japanese back in 99-01. Went through it and noted some that was missing (or just slightly different). Another notable difference is that some of the guards he has listed in NQ are in SQ and vice versa. I didn't hang out long enough to verify if p99 currently has them spawning in both locations.

Guard Imkar says 'Hello Shriast. My name is Imker and I am kind of new at job but I can give you some advice. Be careful here in Qeynos. There are many [dark forces] at work here that is best not disturb.
You say, 'dark forces'
Guard Imkar says 'I really don't know yet. I just know what chills shoot up and down my spine when I pass certain places on my patrol. My mother was a Gypsy and told me I had the Gift of Sense. I think the chills are part of that gift.. Just be careful. Especially near entrances of the aquaducts below the city.
Guard Hewet says 'Well met Shriast, but I must get back to my duties. Stay out of trouble.
Guard Rashik says 'Hello Shriast. my name is Rashik Hiccs and I would like to welcome you to Qeynos of behalf of all of us guards. If you get into trouble, just find one of us and we will help you out.
Guard Vaskif says 'Good night to you Shriast. Beware. We have had reports of the undead prowling about on the plains just north of here. Evil is growing here in Qeynos. I can sense it.
Present but should say the players name instead of 'Sparta'.
Guard Quedal says 'Burp! Heh? Shriast? Nevah hoid o' ya. Beat it. I gots woik ta do.
Present:
Guard Corshin says 'Hail Shriast. Guard Corshin Kiniss at your service. You should be careful in Qeynos after dark. We have had several [bodies] wash up under the docks over the past few weeks. We wouldn't want anything to happen to you.
Beren should respond to him but doesn't. Guard Beren says 'Heh. Speak for yourself Corshin. That one looks like a trouble maker to me.
Guard Wenbie says 'Hello Shriast. What bring you to Qeynos? Must be the mighty fine muffins over at [Vollen's Bakery]. I just love those muffins.
You say, 'Vollen's Bakery'
Guard Wenbie says 'Oh it will be easier for us both if I just show you where it is. Follow me. But be quick about it because I have to get back to my patrol.
Supposedly Wenbie should lead you to the bakery?
"(^^; Well, after saying this, he will guide you to the bakery. Muffins are light and cheap food, so Monk is a must-have."
Tyrak does respond in game but he notes a similar but different response.
Player noted:
Guard Tyrak says 'Heh. Me name's Tyrak. Guardin' is what I do. But I likes when I gets to bash faces.
In p99:
Guard Tyrak says, 'Name's Tyrak, and guardin's what i do, I also like it when I get to bash heads, too.'
All guards are apparently supposed to respond to the following prompts.
"All the Guards give the same answer to explain [Antonius Bayle]. So does [ Commander Kane/Kane Bayle] [ Captain Tillin ] [Gnoll/Sarbertooths]."
[Antonius Bayle]
'Antonius Bayle is the ruler of Qeynos. He is such a great man that they renamed this continent after him. He brought Qeynos to the glory it now is. He formed the mightest army on Norrath, the Qeynos Guard. It is through his guidance that we shall protect all nations of Antonica from any evil threat. He does not venture into the city streets often. He is quite busy.
[Commander Kane Bayle]:
'Commander Kane Bayle is the commander of all the Qeynos Guard. He is second only to his brother, Antonius Bayle. His post is within the guard house at the city gates. Mind you, do not bother him, he has a bit of temper.
[Captain Tillin]
'Captain Tillin Brightblade is the commander of the Qeynos City Guard. Extermination of the Sabertooths is his paramount concern. He has recently begun to hire mercenaries to assist in the extermination. If you wish to help out then go and speak with him. He is most often found discussing tactics with Ebon Strongbear at arena.
[gnoll]/[Sabertooth]
'What was that you said? You mentioned the Sabertooths of Blackburrow? Those gnolls have caused this city trouble harm for too long. We have yet to force them from Qeynos Hills. I hear rumors of a few merchants who even dare to sell the outland Blackburrow Stout which is brewed by the gnolls. Foolish!! We call upon all citizens to assist in ridding our land of the gnolls. If you wish to join the fight then speak with Captain Tillin.
He also has this line listed for Aerryn, the only note he has for it is "chat". I think possibly Aerryn says this to another guard? Or responds to a guard when they mention Kane or when someone mentions spooky Qeynos things like Erabb.
Guard Aerryn says 'Have you noticed anything strange about Commander Bayle lately? I saw him talking to that trouble-making Irontoe the other day and one night late last week, when I was on patrol, I saw him sneaking into Crow's.
