Just open QS's preferences and go to the Plugins pane. Click on Show All in the sidebar, then scroll down to Services Menu Plugin, and click the checkbox to install and activate it.
This plugin will turn all available services in the Services Menu <http://www.macworld.com/article/1163996/how_to_use_services_in_mac_os_x.html> into Quicksilver actions. Since one of OS X's built in services is "Look Up in Dictionary", which looks up selected text in Dictionary.app, the plugin will add it to the list of available actions in QS's second pane. Just use that action on any text that you put into the first pane. All done.
