A number of the recurring characters appear during the various missions or cutscenes in the video game Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories, set in 1998. Prominent characters are listed here in rough order of appearance. Note that the order in which some of these characters appear in-game depends upon the sequence in which the player completes certain missions.
Many of the characters had previously appeared in Grand Theft Auto III (see also list of characters in Grand Theft Auto III), but most of Liberty City Stories' voice actors were changed from better known character actors (i.e. Michael Madsen as Toni Cipriani, Debi Mazar as Maria and Kyle MacLachlan as Donald Love) to those of lesser notability. Several voice actors reprised their original roles in the game, such as Frank Vincent as Salvatore Leone, and Guru as 8-Ball.

“Every morning I woke in dread, waiting for the day nurse to go on her rounds and announce from the list of names in her hand whether or not I was for shock treatment, the new and fashionable means of quieting people and of making them realize that orders are to be obeyed and floors are to be polished without anyone protesting and faces are to be made to be fixed into smiles and weeping is a crime.”
—Janet Frame (b. 1924)
“Hey, you dress up our town very nicely. You don’t look out the Chamber of Commerce is going to list you in their publicity with the local attractions.”
—Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Dr. Matt Hastings (John Agar)
“You’re a grand old flag;
You’re a high-flying flag.
And forever in peace may you wave.”
—George M. Cohan (1878–1942)
“Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired, signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. The world in arms is not spending money alone. It is spending the sweat of its labourers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.”
—Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890–1969)
“The liberty of the individual is no gift of civilization. It was greatest before there was any civilization.”

“What is the city over the mountains
Cracks and reforms and bursts in the violet air
Falling towers
Jerusalem Athens Alexandria
Vienna London
Unreal”
—T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
“There have been many stories told about the bottom, or rather no bottom, of this pond, which certainly had no foundation for themselves. It is remarkable how long men will believe in the bottomlessness of a pond without taking the trouble to sound it.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“No author has created with less emphasis such pathetic characters as Chekhov has....”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
