Babylon 5

Sheridan: (playing a game of chess with Theo) Concentrate all you want, there's nowhere you can go. Brother Theo: I'd expect a comment like that from someone with no clearly defined pattern of faith. Sheridan: I believe in a little of everything. I'm an eclectic. Open minded. Brother Theo: Rudderless, directionless, cast adrift without compass, on an ocean of ecclesiastical possibilities. Tossed by the winds this way, that way... Sheridan: Oh, I'm hearing a lot of talk and you still haven't made a move! Brother Theo: Your Ambassador Delenn has a wonderful phrase: Faith manages. Check. And I do believe, mate.

Ivanova (referring to the game of chess between Sheridan and brother Theo): I think he's doomed. Brother Edward: Not a chance. Ivanova: Care to put money on that? Brother Edward: Gambling is one of the lesser sins. I've always thought that if you're gonna sin you may as well go for one of the really big ones.

Garibaldi: [About Lyta] Nobody has ever been to the Vorlon home world and back again. But she goes and comes back, just like a trip to the corner store and now she is working for Kosh. Is anybody as creeped out about this as I am?

Brother Edward: I always wanted to know, if I would have the courage to stay at the garden at Gethesemane. Now I know.

Londo: Lyta Alexander, as I live and breathe! Lyta: I suggest you remove your hand, Ambassador, or you won't be doing either for much longer!

Sheridan: Where does revenge end, and justice begin?

Brother Edward: Why would an uneasy conscience show up in a lab report?

Lennier: Valen was the greatest of us. A thousand years ago he came from nowhere, formed the Grey Council, and brought peace to our people. They say he was a Minbari, not born of Minbari.

Delenn: We are the universe, trying to understand itself.

Delenn: We believe that the universe itself is conscious in a way we can never truly understand. It is engaged in a search for meaning. So it .. breaks itself apart, investing its own consciousness in every form of life.

Lennier: Well, if I project a beam of light at the wall, you see the light on the wall, but the wall is not the source of the light. It comes in from somewhere else. The soul is also a projection. It does not exist inside us any more than the light exists inside the wall. But this ... shell is the only way we can perceive it.

Delenn: It is a.. it is very hard to explain. We do not believe in any individual god or gods. But rather, we believe that the soul is a -- what is a good term -- a non-localized phenomenon.

Delenn: Among my people it is considered an honor to aid any true seeker in his quest.

Londo: Lyta! I understand the Psi Corps is looking for you. I would hate very much for them to find you. Lyta: So would I. Because I'm not with the Corps anymore. That means I'm not bound by their rules. So if someone were to turn me in, I'd find him. And before they took me, I'd plant a nightmare deep in his mind where noone else could find or remove it. And that person would spend every night of the rest of his life screaming! Londo: Fine! And keep your threats to yourself! Nightmares... The way my life has been going lately, who'd notice?

Londo: I was just surprised to see you, that's all. Do you know, that I was thinking about you just the other day. My extremely overpaid sources told me that you have been seen arriving here in a Vorlon transport. Now, they are profoundly unreliable pool of information on the best of days, so I said: 'No, it can not be her. The Vorlons do not pick up hitch-hikers. Not even one as attractive as you. Besides, if it were you, surely you would come by and say hello to your old friend, Londo.'

Brother Edward: It said: 'Death walks among you.' I know what I saw.

Lyta: The next thing I remember I was on the Vorlon Homeworld. Franklin: Well, come on. Tell us about it. Lyta: I can't. I wish I could, but I'm not allowed to talk about most of what I saw. The rest, ... you wouldn't believe anyway.
