This fight will make you a legend in the Clans, Marsh. They'll tell the story of our deaths for a thousand years.
I'd rather be alive than a legend.

This fight will make you a legend in the Clans, Marsh. They'll tell the story of our deaths for a thousand years.
I'd rather be alive than a legend.
Think we can get out of here with no more surprises?
If you don't like surprises you're in the wrong line of work.
[after a disastrous training session with perspective Pirate E-frame pilots, DeLeon informs Marsh of a spy onboard]
J.T., I think we have a problem.
Only one? I've got six of them in there.
Sean Napier [during the Exofleet-Pirate negotiations]: The Pirates can share Mars with the Neosapiens. After the war there'll be plenty of room for both of you. I've fought the Neos face-to-face, whatever else you may think of them they've got guts. Besides, there won't be many of them left.
Man, it's just another day at the office. Savin' everyone's butt.
Punch your time card, Bronsky.
You are a brave man, Admiral, to sacrifice yourself for our escape. But it will not be necessary.
[a large Pirate fleet decloaks and decimates the Neosapiens pursuing the Exofleet]
You are a devious man, Simbacca. I like that.
One thing you can say for Phaeton, he makes the magnotrains run on time.
[Amanda Connor, who was collaborating with Neosapien propaganda machine, has been coerced to participate in the extraction of former Homeworlds Congressmen]
I hope you've learned something tonight, Amanda.
Look, maybe the Neosapiens did try to make this camp look like a resort instead of a prison. Sure they were using it for propaganda. But that doesn't mean they are evil.
You just don't wanna see the truth. [mans his E-frame] You better get on board. Even you won't be safe here when your "friends" retake the camp.
I am not going, Sean. I believe Phaeton's order - with all its faults! - is the best way for the future.
I could force you to come with me but I won't. You have the right to make up your own mind. Even if you're wrong.
You are living in the past, Sean! Terran and Neosapien cooperation is the key to the future.
I'm sure it is. But not on Phaeton's terms.
[the jumptroops capture a Neo Mega for the first time]
Captain, about that weird Neo we captured, there's good news and bad news.
I could use some good news.
The good news is that, uh, his air supply is holding out.
What's the bad news?
He's stopped breathing.
You call that bad news?
Marsala [about Burns and Bronsky who were captured by Neosapiens]: By now, they could be almost anywhere on the planet.
Oh now that's a great attitude.
It is equally probable that they are no longer alive.
We'll find her, we have to!
I am simply pointing out probabilities.
How can you be so calm about it? Don't you care?
I do not express my feelings the way you do. That does not mean I feel less. Concern for friends is common to all humans, and we Neosapiens are very much human. If Terrans had remembered that, perhaps this war would never have been fought.
[Professor Algernon introduces his method of curing the Dark Matter Syndrome]
You propose to save this man's life with light?
Well, yes if you put it that way.
Do you really think this is going to work?
If my theory about Dark Matter Syndrome is correct, it will.
And, if it isn't correct?
That never occurred to me.
[Glycon orders Thrax to lead Mercury forces to Venus, should their attack on the Exofleet fail]
What about you?
I will lead the counterattack.
You are sacrificing yourself for nothing.
Has it not occurred to you that we are all sacrificing ourselves for nothing? It has become Phaeton's war, not ours.
What are Glycon's orders?
Do you never grow tired of it, Sharos? The fighting?
It is what we were bred for.
And when the war is over? What will we do then?
For us, the war will never be over.
Let him go Takagi, break off pursuit. We're here to look, not fight.
Kaz Takagi [returning]: Hey, can I follow orders or what?
Takagi, only you can show off by not showin' off.
[Kaz Takagi disarms Thrax who then turns around to face him]
I know you.
It's not true, then, that we all look alike to Terrans.
You were on Mercury, you let me live. Why?
It seemed like a good idea at the time. [puts his arms down and calmly walks away]
Halt! Don't make me fire.
No one makes you fire. It's a decision you make for yourself. And you have to live with it.
[Takagi lowers the gun, Thrax takes off in his E-frame]
Phaeton has chosen to rule through terror. But when everyone fears you, you must fear everyone.
