Adria quotes from Stargate SG-1

Vala

Isn't there a part of you that's from me?

Of course. You are my mother.

Vala

And as your mother, you will listen to me, young lady. There will be no leading of these ships and armies on a mass-murdering crusade! Or else!

Vala

Eh, it was worth a try.

Vala Mal Doran

What do you know of the Jaffa?

They are proud people. Confused about the ways to salvation. They have been misled by parasites posing as gods for several generations. But in their hearts, I believe that they know ascension is the true path to salvation.

Vala Mal Doran

Then why are you slaughtering them?

Ba’al

Why don't you do something? You're the Orici. You're supposedly possessed of significant powers. So snuff out the flame and get us on our way.

My abilities don't work that way.

Ba’al

Of course, how does that Earth saying go? "All flash, no photo?"

Lt. Col. Carter

Actually, it's "All flash, no substance."

Ba’al

I prefer my version.

Would you care for a demonstration?

[haughtily] Taking your life would be a waste of my time.

Ba’al

Which I suppose would be put to better use complaining.

Lt. Col. Carter

Oh, geez, why don't you two just get a room?

You made a terrible mistake. Release me now, and I will be merciful.

Ba'al

You're so much more pleasant when you lack the ability to snap my neck with your thoughts.
