"The last time I gave an interview they told me to just relax and say what I really felt. Ten minutes after the broadcast I got transferred to an outpost so far off the starmaps you couldn't find it with a hunting dog and an ouiji board."
"Don't sweat it. Just be that charming, effervescent commander we've all come to know and love. What's the worst that could happen? They fire you, ship you off to the Rim and I get promoted to Commander. I don't see a problem here."
Sinclair and Garibaldi, Infection
"Ambassador, it is not my place to speculate on how anything gets in your bed."
Aide Na'Toth to G'Kar,The Parliament of Dreams
"Mr. Garibaldi, there're days I'm very glad I don't have to think the way you do."
Ivanova, And the Sky Full of Stars
"Ambassador Kosh has been a busy boy today."
"They say God works in mysterious ways."
"Maybe so, but He's a con man compared to the Vorlon."
Security Chief Michael Garibaldi and Sinclair, Deathwalker
The Babylon 5 mantra:
"Ivanova is always right. I will listen to Ivanova. I will not ignore Ivanova's recommendations. Ivanova is God. And if this ever happens again, Ivanova will personally rip your lungs out. Babylon Control out. [Sigh] Civilians. [Looking up] Just kidding about the God part -- no offense."
Lt. Commander Susan Ivanova, Voice in the Wilderness Part I
"I know, I know. It's a Russian thing. When we're about to do something stupid, we like to catalog the full extent of our stupidity for future reference."
Ivanova, A Voice in the Wilderness, Part II
Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand;
Surely the Second Coming is at hand.
The Second Coming! Hardly are those words out
When a vast image out of "Spiritus Mundi"
Troubles my sight: somewhere in the sands of the desert
A shape with lion body and the head of a man
A gaze blank and pitiless as the sun,
Is moving its slow thighs, while all about it
Reel shadows of the indigent desert birds.
The darkness drops again; but now I know
That twenty centuries of stony sleep
Were vexed to nightmare by a rocking cradle,
And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
G'Kar to Na'Toth, Revelations
Quoted sections are shown in italics. The poem is The Second Coming by William Butler Yeats.
"Weep for the future, Na'toth. Weep for us all."
"Are you all right?"
"I have looked into the darkness, Na'toth. You can not do that and never be quite the same again. When you told me about the destruction of our base at quadrant 37, I knew that only a major power could attempt an assault of that magnitude. But none of the governments here could've done it. Which left only two possibilities: a new race, or an old race. A very old race."
G'kar to Na'toth, Revelations
"This is Ambassador Delenn of the Minbari. Babylon 5 is under our protection. Withdraw, .. or be destroyed."
"Negative. We have authority here. Do not force us to engage your ship."
"Why not? Only one human captain has ever survived battle with Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else."
Delenn and Captain Drake, Severed Dreams |

"I wish them both the greatest of success."
-Menachem Begin, Prime Minister of Israel, about the war between Iran and Iraq starting. (Don't taze me ISD bro, not politics. I thought it applies to TEST vs. Goon, CODE. vs. anti-gankers, choose any other two groups opposed to each other, etc.) 
But, on the other hand, it is the novice usually who gets the famous ace by doing at some moment the unexpected thing.

Lady Astor, after arguing with Winston Churchill (and presumably losing) told him "Sir, if you were my husband, I would poison you"
He replied "Madam, if you were my wife, I would drink it."
"It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his ISK/hr depends upon his not understanding it!"

We know no document is perfect, but when we amend the Constitution, it would be to expand rights, not to take away rights from decent, loyal Americans. This great Constitution of ours should never be used to make a group of Americans permanent second-class citizens.

'No matter how beautiful she is, somebody somewhere is sick of her sh*t.' -Graffiti in the men's room at the Luckenbach, Texas post office-bar
(I suppose if you changed 'beautiful' to 'handsome' and made the pronouns masculine, it would also be profound).
But, on the other hand, it is the novice usually who gets the famous ace by doing at some moment the unexpected thing.

That was a great movie, btw. We had to read the play and watch the movie in high school English class. One of the very few smart things I remember my high school doing.

The human race is just a chemical scum on a moderate-sized planet, orbiting around a very average star in the outer suburb of one among a hundred billion galaxies. We are so insignificant that I can't believe the whole universe exists for our benefit. That would be like saying that you would disappear if I closed my eyes.
