He's also kinda like Frisk in the fact that the player selecting YES | NO options is treated as if it was him saying it, so he does technically talk more than people think he does, and I believe he did actually speak once in KfAD as well, he whispered something to someone at one point if I'm remembering properly.

"Quote is a very quiet robot. He does not speak often in the game apart from giving "Yes/No" answers to questions posed to him, though there are several instances in which he communicates with other characters. Quote's dialog is not shown to the player, instead being shown as ellipses (ex.: "......."); the only exception is when he is asked for the password to access the Hideout in the Plantation, when he repeats the password given to him by Sue. In the WiiWare, Nintendo 3DS eShop, and Nintendo Switch ports, the player has access to "Curly Story," which switches the roles of Quote and Curly Brace. In this mode, Quote speaks only a single line (telling Curly who he is when he's fed Ma Pignon). In addition, the ending credits images and official artwork reveal that he has subdued emotions; he only emotes in two of the credits images, out of seven where his face can be clearly seen, and he almost never emotes in official artwork." - Cave Story Wiki

So him being unexpressive is kinda spot on, it's just he only talks offscreen, which is hard to pull off in King for Another Day, thus he just kinda doesn't talk at all.
