Babylon 5

Delenn: It occurs to me, I have never walked the length of this place end to end. Sheridan: Well, Delenn, it's five miles long. Delenn: I know. Coming? Sheridan: Now? Delenn: "Now" is all we have.

Franklin: Life is full of surprises. Halloran: Tell me about it. I figured I'd come up here for a few days, exchange some information for an offer of support from Sheridan. Who knew I'd end up with a new job? The ironic part is that I'm in a better position now to help Mars than when I was there. Franklin: Yeah, well, when this place was built, I think irony was one of the primary materials used in construction, like the ... irony of you coming here just when most of us, me included, are getting ready to leave.

Garibaldi: Let me introduce you to the new head of intelligence for the Interstellar Alliance. Halloran: Hi.

G'Kar: I find I'm actually looking forward to seeing the universe with you alongside, Lyta. Perhaps we'll find something extraordinary. Perhaps something extraordinary will find us. Either way, it's going to be quite an adventure. Lyta: I smell another book coming. G'Kar: What a wonderful idea.

G'Kar: But if you could have removed them at any time.. Lyta: It made everybody feel safer. Besides, I think I kind of liked it after a while.

Narn: We put you in this position, G'Kar. Our reverence is our gift to you, and you are responsible to us. You owe us. Without us ... you are nothing. G'Kar: Then I am nothing. Good day.

Sheridan: I'd rather not say yet. I need some more time to think it over, but I've had an idea, and you know how dangerous that can be.

Sheridan: How are things on Mars? Halloran: We've had nothing but trouble with Earth since we became independent. They're treating us as if we were still a colony. Everything has to go through Earth: supplies, money transfers, documents. They couldn't kill us with bullets, so they're drowning us in red tape. Frankly, I preferred the bullets. At least there I could shoot back. Sheridan: Well, that's the problem when you go from being a soldier to a politician. You have to sit and listen to people you would've shot six months earlier.

Zack: I don't believe in random attacks. Maybe there's not an obvious reason, but there's always a reason.

G'Kar: Meanwhile, consider the walls around you. In a little while, we will leave these behind. Now you have to decide how many others you will bring with you when we leave.

Lyta: It's ironic. Heh. You have to leave because everybody wants you. They're fighting over you. And I have to leave because nobody wants me. G'Kar: And yet we are the same in many ways. We are all the sum of our tears. Too little and the ground is not fertile, and nothing can grow there. Too much, the best of us is washed away. My rains have come and gone .. for now. Yours are just beginning.

G'Kar: Hello, Lyta. Lyta: G'Kar. G'Kar: Do you mind if I talk to you? Lyta: You'll forgive the accommodations. G'Kar: It's a cell. I've gotten used to them. Frankly, I've done some of my best writing in places like this. In here, you cannot run from yourself.
