if you go into one of your message threads you can choose Edit, select the messages you want and then Forward, which will combine all of the selected messages into one. Then you can select all the message text, Copy, and Paste to another document. a bit ugly but, maybe a little easier than Copy Paste for each message.

While all of this can be backed up to the Cloud (if option is selected in device settings), I don't see any way to access the backed up data there.

Or maybe Mayday would have some other suggestion.
