- Capt. John Sheridan: This stops, and it stops now. You tell the others. Starting right now, we fight back, and we fight back hard.
- Cmdr. Susan Ivanova: I thought you were looking for some other way than firing at our own ships. They were following orders.
- Capt. John Sheridan: Any crew that executes an order like that is guilty of war crimes. And they deserve whatever they get. Now we're riding in, Susan. Anybody who wants to defect and join us, fine. If they get in our way, we'll knock them down. If they kill one of our ships, we'll kill three of theirs, and we keep going. We never slow down and we won't stop. Now we're going after the colonies, then Mars, - then Earth. - And God help anybody who gets in our way.

- Michael Garibaldi: Yeah, put it through.
- William Edgars: Good Morning, Mr. Garibaldi.
- Michael Garibaldi: Mr. Edgars, have I ever mentioned to you that there is a seven-hour time difference between Babylon 5 and Mars?
- PsiCop Alfred Bester: Well, there is just no delicate way to say this.
- [pause]
- PsiCop Alfred Bester: I want your body.
- Lyta Alexander: [shouts] What? Are you out of your mind?
- Neroon: Is it wrong to value life? I thought that is why we fought.
- Shakiri: We fight because it is our nature. It is the calling of our heart. Life and death are simply two possible consequences, both equal, neither valued nor feared above the other. For a warrior death is simply the release from our obligation.
