Here are some collected quotes (recommended from various sources):
The dim glow falling upon the dried blood of Union brothers in the Manassas eve Still guides our path. Constellations hidden by fierce Pacific storms in the Bataan sky Remain obscured by day. The stars -- a billion -- for every life laid down in Vietnam Still shine on us, And will guide those who follow. - Lt. Col. T. C. McQueen, "Hostile Visit" I don't give a damn for destiny. Anyone worth a Chig's ass will take responsibility for asking themselves, and then answering, Who am I, and, What's the point? My name is Col. Tyrus Cassius McQueen. But I know nothing of who I am. The answer, I feel, is near. The defining, perhaps final, moment is close. Everyone, everyone, in this life knows when the moment is before them. To turn away is simple. To ignore it assures survival. But it is an insult to life, because there can be no redemption, no second chance. Beyond death there's nothing. Just darkness. And cold. The instant his existence was confirmed, every action, every breath of my life, became horrifyingly clear. He's out there tonight, sending our women, our men, to that cold, dark place. And nothing, nothing, will stop him, until I face the moment. I know now with certainty who I am. But I'll be damned if I'll ever know the point. And now all I can ask is, who was he? And who was she? And what was the point? - Lt. Col. McQueen "Angriest Angel" Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future: "What are we waiting for? Lets boldly go where no man has gone before." "Beam me up,Scottie. There's no intelligent life down here". - Tank and Scout, joking about the attack on Volcania. "The Sky Shall Swallow them Part 1" Babylon 5: Well, thank you Mr. Garibaldi, one of the leading minds of the 14th century! Have we no workhouses, have we no prisons? Look at Mr. Marly here; he's the fellow in the chains. Ignore the moans its just gas. - Marcus Cole (Exogenesis, B5, 3.Season) Anatomically impossible, Mr. Garibaldi, but you're welcome to try... anytime...anywhere. - Bester in "Mind War" Good ol' Psi Corps. You guys never cease to amaze me! All the moral fibre of Jack the Ripper. What do you do in your spare time? Juggle babies over a fire pit? Oops, there goes another calculated risk! - Ivanova in "Mind War" And just one more thing... On your trip back I'd like you to take the time to learn 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... Civilians! [Looks up] I was just kidding about the God part -- no offense.
