Starbuck, Number Two/Leoben Conoy and others in “Flesh and Bone”

[Starbuck interrogates a captured Cylon infiltrator]

Starbuck

Now, if you were human, you'd be just about ready to start offering up some false information about the location of the nuke. Some tiny thing that might get you a reward and maybe spare you a few minutes of this. But then I keep forgetting, you're not human. You're a machine.

Number Two/Leoben Conoy

I am more than you could ever imagine. I am God.

Starbuck

[stifles laugh] I'm sorry, you're God? Wow... nice to meet ya. That's good, that's good. We'll give you a couple of minutes for that.

Leoben

It's funny, isn't it? We're all God, Starbuck. All of us. I see the love that binds all living things together.

Starbuck

Love? You don't even know what the word means.

Leoben

I know that God loved you more than all other living creatures and you repaid His divine love with sin, with hate, corruption, evil. So then He decided to create the Cylons.

Starbuck

The gods had nothing to do with it. We created you. Us. It was a stupid, frakked-up decision, and we have paid for it. You slaughtered my entire civilization. That is sin. That is evil. And you are evil.

Leoben

Am I? I see the truths that float past you in the stream.
