Lieutenant Sheba quotes from Battlestar Galactica (1978)

Lieutenant Sheba

You will maintain silence until we land aboard the Battlestar Pegasus.

Captain Apollo

Pegasus?! But that's just not possible!

Lieutenant Starbuck

Do you know whose ship that was?

Captain Apollo

Cain, the greatest military commander who ever lived. He was my idol!

Lieutenant Starbuck

What is it? What's wrong, Count?

Nothing's wrong.

Lieutenant Starbuck

Then why do you look so worried? Did you break some kind of rule?

It's time for me to go.

Lieutenant Starbuck

Why? What happened? Was it within your dominion to strike down a follower? A soul given to you freely, but not an innocent? A spirit whose life you took against his will?!!

No one has dominion over me!!

Lieutenant Sheba

I wonder.

I am not finished with you mortals. There will come another time, another place. And we will meet again.

Lieutenant Sheba

Who picked you for this mission?

Captain Apollo

I did.

Lieutenant Sheba

You really want to get yourself killed, don't you?

Captain Apollo

What's that supposed to mean?

Lieutenant Sheba

Ever since you lost Serina, you've taken every high-risk mission.

Captain Apollo

Serina has nothing to do with it.

Lieutenant Sheba

She was a very lovely woman, Apollo. But she's dead.

Captain Apollo

Look, can we just drop this?

Lieutenant Sheba

No, we can't just drop it! [tearful] You think you have the corner on loneliness here?! I'm sorry.

Captain Apollo

It's all right.

Lieutenant Sheba

I guess we've been at each other's throats ever since we met.

Captain Apollo

Yeah, I guess we have.

Lieutenant Sheba

Except for lately. You've included me in your tight little circle of friends, and I appreciate that, Apollo.

Captain Apollo

Yeah; well, I realized I'd been a little hard on you.

Lieutenant Sheba

Did you ever think about the fact that maybe two people who snap at each other for no reason are doing it to avoid their real feelings? I've thought about it quite a bit. [kisses Apollo] Be careful.
