Quotes

G'kar: Mr. Garibaldi. I have been on this station long enough to know that you don't ask leading questions unless you already know the answers. So, why don't we just pretend I've lied about it, you've caught me in your web of insufferable logic and cut to the point. (edit)
Sebastian: What about the people you work with? The people you call friends. Are you willing to sacrifice them? What about ... your family? (Hits Sheridan) What about your God? (Hits Sheridan) What about truth? (hits Sheridan) What about lie? (hits Sheridan) What about right? (hits Sheridan) What about wrong? (Hits Sheridan) What about your future? (Hits Sheridan) What about fate? (hits Sheridan) What about sin? (hits Sheridan) What about Hell? (hits Sheridan) What about death? (hits Sheridan) What about ---
Delenn: ENOUGH! (edit)
Sebastian: How do you know the chosen ones. No greater love hath a man than he lay down his life for his brother. Not for millions, not for glory, not for fame, for one person ... in the dark where no one will know or see. (edit)
Sebastian: Good luck to you in your holy cause, Captain Sheridan. May your choices have better results than mine. Remembered not as a messenger, remembered not as a reformer, not as a prophet, not as a hero, not even as Sebastian. Remembered only as Jack. (edit)

Trivia

add »
Factual Error: Sheridan confronts Sebastian with evidence Sebastian is responsible for the Jack the Ripper murders in London's East End. Sheridan's lips can be viewed vocalizing "West End." The error was due to the original script. It was later dubbed over as "East End." There are rumors in the B5 community the error was aired the original broadcast. (edit)
