The slaves save some pretty funny things when you release them:

Horde Slave says: You're a beautiful sight... you have no idea.
Horde Slave says: I'd lost all track of time in this forsaken place. You're a sight for sore eyes, friend.
Horde Slave says: I'd almost given up hope.
Horde Slave says: When you kill the Pit Master, spit on his corpse for me, will you?

And my favorite, which came from a Female Tauren in my case:

Horde Slave says: Have my babies.
