Elizabeth Weir quotes from Stargate SG-1

Dr. Jackson

I remember when we were first trying to get the Stargate to work, I would come here and just stare at it for hours.

Is that a gentle reminder that you've been an important part of this since the very beginning?

Dr. Jackson

Subtle, huh?

I've been awake all weekend. The reality of this is…it's an adrenaline rush.

Dr. Jackson

Hey, at least I know you have a beating heart!

Dr. Jackson

This is Dr. Elizabeth Weir. She's the new leader of this facility.

Hello.

Bra'tac

Has Hammond of Texas fallen in battle?

Oh, no sir, he's fine!

Col. O'Neill

And you are?

I am Dr. Elizabeth Weir. Colonel.

You can just call her your one hope of ever stepping through the stargate again.

Col. O'Neill

Bit of a mouthful.

I know I'm playing catch-up, but uh, I understand time is short.

Col. O'Neill

Actually it's all relative, ma'am; Carter could explain it better if we had more time.

Well, have you got everything you need? I think there's still a sink left in the kitchen.

Col. O'Neill

Is that a joke?

Perhaps. A bad one

Col. O'Neill

Yes. Very bad. But I sense hope for you.

Will you shut the hell up?

Sorry, sir.

Not you, Doctor.

Kinsey

Excuse me?

Consider your resignation accepted, Bob.

Kinsey

You can't do that!

Oh, please! I've got enough on you to have ya shot.

Kinsey

This is the biggest mistake you will ever make.

But I think I'll stick to my original thought, which is shut the hell up!

Maj. Carter

That cargo ship was modified using the knowledge of the Ancients. Now, there is no guarantee that anyone will ever be able to figure out how it was done.

And as the most likely person on the planet to figure it out, are you saying that if I don’t let you attempt to contact the Asgard, you won’t even try?

Maj. Carter

(smiling sarcastically): I would never say that.

Dr. Jackson

I was just going over some research material on the delegates they're sending. Camulus was the one who sent the original message. Then there's Amaterasu, Japanese Sun Goddess, and the last one is Lord Yu.

Yu?

Dr. Jackson

Don't. Every joke, every pun, done to death, seriously.

Dr. Jackson

The System Lords can't be trusted, either as a group or individuals. They're posturing egomaniacs driven by an unsatisfiable lust for power, each one capable of unimaginable evil.

See, why should I be nervous? Sounds like an average day at the United Nations.

Oh, I'm not sure anything can surprise me at this point.

Camulus

I wish to request asylum.

Well, it seems I was wrong again.

The Pentagon has convinced the President that there is one man who could run the SGC and make it politically viable from an international perspective, despite the fact that he is part of the American military establishment.

Col. O'Neill

Do we know this ... shrub?

Well, you know him rather well ... Brigadier General Jack O’Neill.

Col. O'Neill

[Stunned] Me?!

Yeah, you.

Col. O'Neill

Brigadier ... it’s on my list.

Congratulations.

Col. O'Neill

I should be clear... I like the promotion, paycheck and the parking spot. But I don’t really wanna be in charge of anything. No.
