Andromeda quotes

Dylan

Ever the cynic. You know I can't wait to hear your toast at my wedding: "To Dylan and Sarah, I'm sure you'll have a long and happy life together. Unless you die."

Nietzscheans don't believe in optimism. It inhibits survival.

Dylan

So does pessimism.

Trance

Oh, he's the guy who retired. Didn't you say he bought a farm?

THE farm. Bought THE farm, Trance.

Trance

What's the difference?

Beka

Torn pressure suit and a bad emergency seal.

Trance

Oh, that IS different.

Lucky for you I'm a freaking genius.

Tyr

I don't care if we wake up when the suns have all burned out and the universe is winding down to die, as long as I'm there to watch.

Beka

[after accepting Dylan's offer to become his crew] We're not saluting you, and we're not calling you Captain.

Dylan Hunt

Dylan. Dylan will be fine.

Who does he think he is?

I assume he thinks he's a Neitzschean.

...But you did go an hour without killing me. And if you can go an hour, maybe you can go a day, then a week. And then maybe, just maybe, a lifetime.

Dylan may not be a god, but on this ship, I am.

That is the Andromeda I know, love, and gave human form to!

Tyr

And when the Magog unleash their dreaded bouncing ball attack, we'll make them rue the day.

Dylan

I want Andromeda bucking like a drunken Vedran with a Nightsider on its back"

Beka

Sounds like my last date.

Dylan

You can tell us about that later.

Tyr

[to Dylan] Work as a team? With them? They're amateurs - children! And you? You're an anachronism. You haven't the first idea how unforgiving this universe has become, and I will not allow you to learn at my expense!

Tyr

If the radiation is affecting me, then what do you suppose it's doing to Trance? To Harper? To you?

Beka

Tyr. Didn't know you cared.

Tyr

I care about survival. [Nonchalant] Do you?

Rhade

To a Nietzschean, a game is never just a game.

While I admit the universe does have a sense of humour, I doubt very much that this is a joke.
