[arguing with Garibaldi] We made a mistake, I'm sorry. Here, open my wrists. [offers Garibaldi his wrists]
Centauri don't have major arteries in their wrists.
Of course not! What, do you think I am stupid?
S1Midnight on the Firing Line
I'm in the middle of fifteen things, all of them annoying.
The best way to understand someone is to fight him, make him angry. That's when you see the real person.
I do not like Santiago. I've always thought that a leader should have a strong chin. He has no chin, and his vice president has several. This to me is not a good combination.
My people...we have a way, you see. We know how, and sometimes even when, we are going to die. Comes in a dream. In my dream, I am an old man, it's twenty years from now, and I am dying. My hands wrapped around someone's throat, and his around mine. We have squeezed the life out of each other. The first time I saw G'Kar, I recognized him as the one from the dream. It will happen. Twenty years from now, we'll die with our hands around each other's throats.[N]
What reasonable explanation is there for the slaughter of unarmed civilians?
Curious. We wondered the same thing when you invaded our world. The wheel turns, does it not, Ambassador?
We should have wiped out your kind when we had the chance.
What happened? Run out of small children to butcher?
KKosh
They are alone. They are a dying people. We should let them pass.
The Narn or the Centauri?
KKosh
Yes.
Mr. Garibaldi, you're sitting at my station, using my equipment. Is there a reason for this, or to save time should I just snap your hand off at the wrist?
The Council can go to hell! And the emergency session can go to hell! And you, Vir, you can go to hell too--I would not want you to feel left out.
Afterwards, if you like, you can stop by my quarters and I can show you my most favorite thing in the universe. Okay, okay, my second most favorite thing in the universe.
Blood calls out for blood.
Just now, would you really have killed me?
Yes. Yes, I would have. But I'm just as glad I didn't have to. The paperwork's a pain in the butt.
We've had plenty of experience with sneak attacks - Pearl Harbor, the terrorist nuking of San Diego, the destruction of our first Mars colony, it's a long and bloody history... Do you know what we learned from it? That the sneak attack is the first resort of a coward.
Just a minute-
You didn't even have the decency to pick a military target! A poorly armed civilian colony... [in sarcasm] What a challenge that must've been for the great Narn military...
S1Soul Hunter
[An unknown ship on collision course with the station.]
This is not a clear and present danger? I must read the rule book again.
The soul we save: not all, only the special ones. Leaders, thinkers, poets, dreamers, blessed lunatics.
