Quotes

Delenn: Lennier, have you ever seen the warrior caste training flights?
Lennier: Yes.
Delenn: Have you ever seen them skin dancing?
Lennier: I have.
Delenn: Can you do the same thing?
Lennier: Not without approximately... five years of additional training.
Delenn: That would be no, then.
Lennier: But I can program the parameters into the ship's artificial intelligence matrix.
Delenn: And what do you do then?
Lennier: Touch that button, and pray very, very fast. (edit)
Philllipe: And what if I said I sprout wings and fly to New York, eh?
Franklin: In your case, I'd say you were crazy. But if Sheridan said it, I'd tell him to stop off on the West Side and pick me up some bagels. (edit)
Lenier: The Drakh mother ship is heading for the jump gate.
Delenn: How fast?
Lenier: Fast.
Delenn: Be faster. (edit)
Delenn: Fighting a war is easy. Destroying is easy. Building a new world out of what's left of the old, that is what's hard. But that is your strength. So much is falling apart out there. You must help to put it back together. (edit)
Delenn: Before the war Dukhat wanted to know more about your people, so I began studying your history. I came to the conclusion that of all the races we had encountered humans were the most dangerous. Because humans form communities, and from that diversity comes a strength no single race can withstand. That is your strength and it is that which makes you dangerous. (edit)
