"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"I was not pretending. I went to Centauri Prime as your guest, your
protector and perhaps even as your conscience, but not as anyone's
eyes and ears. So no, I will not be testifying before the council."
-- G'Kar to Londo in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"As of right now the Centauri Republic stands alone."
-- Sheridan in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"If something like this were going on, I would know about it!"
-- Londo to Vir in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"In war these things happen. We are not at war. We do not strike first
and we do not blow up cargo transports like pirates or barbarians."
-- Londo to Vir in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"He says it's important."
"Tell me when it is ever not important. All right, please, just tell me
when it is ever not important. Go ahead, go ahead, take your time,
I can wait. Oh, no, that's right, I can't wait because it's important."
-- Zack and Garibaldi in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"You seem awfully cranky, Michael. You've been taking your vitamins?"
-- Zack to Garibaldi in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"Michael, this may be our only chance to avoid a shooting war. So it is
why it is so important that you get the information to us as fast as you
can so that we have time to get the White Stars into position."
"You can rely on me, I'll get it done."
-- Sheridan & Garibaldi in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"Prime Minister, welcome back. I was hoping you returned home,
got out of the line of fire."
"Thank you, but I rather there wasn't a line of fire."
"Is that why you brought .. it along, to hear our terms?"
"No, he is still here as my bodyguard, that's all. Where I go, he goes."
-- Minister and Londo in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"My condolences."
"Thank you. It's a burden, but I've come to accept it."
-- Minister and G'Kar in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"He has diplomatic immunity."
"We are not diplomats."
-- Franklin and Brakiri in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"That's enough. I said that's enough! Now, we gave you a promise. And we
are bound by that promise. And damn you asking for it. And damn me for
agreeing to it. And damn all of us to hell, because that is exactly where
we are going. We talked about peace. You didn't want peace. We talked about
co-operation. You didn't want co-operation. You want war. Is that it?
You want a war? Well, you've got a war!"
-- Sheridan in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"I told you before: Where I go, he goes. And where he goes, I go."
-- Londo in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
"What does the candle represent?"
"Life."
"Whose life?"
"All life, every life. We're all born as molecules in the hearts of a billion
stars, molecules that do not understand politics, policies and differences.
In a billion years we, foolish molecules forget who we are and where we
came from. Desperate acts of ego. We give ourselves names, fight over lines
on maps. And pretend our light is better than everyone else's. The flame
reminds us of the piece of those stars that live inside us. A spark that
tells us: you should know better. The flame also reminds us that life is
precious, as each flame is unique. When it goes out, it's gone forever.
And there will never be another quite like it. So many candles will go out
tonight. I wonder some days if we can see anything at all."
-- Sheridan and Delenn in Babylon 5:"And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder"
