Garret is like a medieval Batman.  In his first game he kills a god (by stealing his eye).  In the second he kills the industrial revolution, including a *lot* of robots.

And in the third he goes through... The Cradle. *shudder* surviving that is far more impressive than anything else he's done.

You have forgotten the truth already? 

Might as well bring the horror front and center. This is the WMG directly from TvTropes:

Garret is still stuck in the Cradle.
Garret never actually was able to leave the Cradle, the last part of the mission was simply a trick by the Cradle to make him think he left. In reality, he is now the Cradle's newest patient, and the rest of the game, and any future games in the series that feature Garret, are halucinations by him as he roams the halls.
•Alternatively, he was inside the Cradle all along, one of the orphans who died in that fire, dreaming a Dying Dream of becoming a great hero of the City.

And this is my take on it:

Want to never sleep again? Garrett seems very apprehensive about the whole mission into the Cradle, even before he knows its secrets. Yet afterwards he acts fine about it and the game quickly comes to a close. Also of note is that the little girl, who herself is part of the Cradle seems to not be attempting to trap you forever. Dosen't that seem odd, that a little girl wouldn't go the same way as the rest of the Cradel's inhabitants? Furthermore, after Garrett jumps off of the top of the Otherworld Cradle the mission ends instantly. By now I am sure you see where I am going with this. Garrett never left the Cradle. He ended up sucuming to it like everyone else, and dosen't even know it. Sweet dreams.

Just so we're all on the same page for people that are obviously not in the know, the cradle is a Lotus Eater Machine, right?

The Shalebridge Cradle is an orphanage in the City. Then it was an asylum. Then it burned down. It didn't stop being an orphanage or an asylum at any time. It's a good thing I have this let's play of it on link.

There is no Quote... this is actually a vote for every Player Character ever. And since Rincewind was a character from a Discworld Adventure Game, this is technically a vote for him.

It was already explained that The Player Character manifested as Quote as a result of receiving a small portion of Kamina's awesome.
