You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, would it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe.
-Marcus Cole, babylon 5

I am a Ranger. We walk in the dark places no others will enter. We stand on the bridge and no-one may pass. We live for the One, we die for the One.

A darkness carried in the heart can not be cured by moving the body from one place to another.
-Do I really need to tell you?

You can't turn away from death simply because you're afraid of what might happen without you. That's not enough! You're not embracing life. You're fleeing death....Your friends need what you can be when you are no longer afraid, when you know who you are and why you are and what you want, when you are no longer looking for reasons to live, but can simply be.

The next time .. the next time .. you want a revelation .. could you possibly find a way .. that isn't .. quite so .. uncomfortable?
-Marcus Cole, upon being beaten half to death.

"Breen. You've managed to import breen from homeworld. How?"

I suspect it's one of those great universal mysteries which will either never get explained or which will drive you mad if you ever learned the truth."

"Every day, here and at home, we are warned about the enemy. But who is the enemy? Is it the alien? Well, we are all alien to one another. Is it the one who believes differently than we do? No, not at all, my friends. The enemy is fear. The enemy is ignorance. The enemy is the one who tells you that you must hate that which is different. Because, in the end, that hate will turn on you. And that same hate will destroy you."

"I thought the purpose of filing these reports was to provide accurate intelligence."
"Vir, intelligence has nothing to do with politics."

"We are the universe, trying to understand itself"

"I can only conclude that I'm paying off karma at a vastly accelerated rate."

"Then the tragedy is greater than I thought. Without forgiveness you can not mourn, and without mourning you can never let go of the pain."

"The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest."

"Ah! He has become one with his inner self!"
"He's passed out."
"That too."

"I've never understood that. Why does the universe give us puzzles with no answers?"
"Pay back, maybe?"

"Faith manages."

"We put you in this position, G'Kar. Our reverence is our gift to you, and you are responsible to us. You owe us. Without us .. you are nothing."
"Then I am nothing. Good day."

-- A Narn and G'Kar in Babylon 5: "Objects in Motion"

"Why? What's inside there?"
"One moment of perfect beauty."

There are so many more good ones, but I think I'll leave it here.
