CMCentauri Minister
Is that why you brought it [G'Kar] along?
No, he is still here as my bodyguard, that's all. Where I go, he goes.
CMCentauri Minister
My condolences.
Thank you. It's a burden, but I've come to accept it.
“And All My Dreams, Torn Asunder” · Season 5

CMCentauri Minister
I'm sure you would like to freshen up. Both of you.
It's a natural musk. I rather enjoy it.
Careful minister, we don't want my companion to get the wrong idea. We don't normally treat our guests so badly.
Yes you do.
Shut up.
[A Centauri official comes to arrest G'Kar]
Where he goes, I go.
Londo [to G'Kar]: Don't worry. Even one as arrogant as this would not take it upon himself to imprison his own prime minister.
[Cut to the next scene, Londo and G'Kar are in a prison cell]
[to G'Kar]: Shut up.
I didn't say anything.
We are all born as molecules in the hearts of a billion stars. Molecules that do not understand politics or policies or differences. Over a billion years, we foolish molecules forget who we are and where we came from. In desperate acts of ego, we give ourselves names, fight over lines on maps, and pretend that our light is better than everyone else's.
[Delenn meditates in front of a candle, praying in light of the soon-to-be war. Sheridan comes out of their bedroom and sits with her.]
What does the candle represent?
Life.
Whose life?
All life. Every life. We are all born as molecules in the hearts of a billion stars. Molecules that do not understand politics or policies or differences. Over a billion years, we foolish molecules forget who we are and where we came from. In desperate acts of ego, we give ourselves names, fight over lines on maps, and pretend that 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.
