There are a couple of possibilities.
If you select a text file and hit → or /, each line will become an
item you can match by typing. So you could create a trigger for
“phrases.txt ⇥ Show Contents”, then you’d be able to search
through them.
You could also just add a new “File & Folder Scanner” catalog entry
that points to `phrases.txt`, and enable “Include Contents: Text
Lines”. That will add the phrases directly to the top-level catalog.
That only works if every chunk of text is a single line, though.
Another option (that will work with multi-line text) is the Shelf
plug-in. If you add all of your phrases to the shelf, you can get to
them many ways:
* Call up “Shelf” and hit → or /
* Make a trigger for “Shelf ⇥ Show Contents”
* Show the Shelf in another window by hitting ⌥⌘S in Quicksilver.
You can keep this window open all the time, or attach it to a screen
edge and make it slide out when you mouse over to it.
