 vorrei sapere quali sono le vostre citazioni preferite di Babylon 5.
L'elenco e' tutt'altro che completo:
A half-truth is the worst kind of lie.
     --Delenn "A Voice in the Wilderness", Babylon 5
Babylon 5 was the last of the Babylon stations.
There would never be another.
It changed the future, and it changed us.
It taught us that we have to create the future, or others will do it 
for us.
It showed us that we have care for one another, because if we don't, 
who will? And that true strength sometimes comes from the most 
unlikely places.
Mostly, though, I think it gave us hope that there can always be new 
beginnings, even for people like us.
     --Susan Ivanova, "Sleeping in Light", Babylon 5
I am gray.
I stand between the candle and the stars.
We are gray.
We stand between the darkness and the light.
     --Delenn "Babylon Squared", Babylon 5
It was the dawn of the Third Age of Mankind, ten years after the 
Earth-Minbari War.
The Babylon project was a dream given form.
Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where humans and 
aliens could work out their differences peacefully.
It's a port of call, home away from home, for diplomats, hustlers, 
entrepreneurs, and wanderers.
Humans and aliens wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand tons 
of spinning metal, all alone in the night.
It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace.
This is the story of the last of the Babylon stations.
The year is 2258.
The name of the place is Babylon 5.
You should never hand someone a gun unless you are sure where they 
will point it.
     --Jeffrey Sinclair, Babylon 5
Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
     --G'Kar "The Parliament of Dreams", Babylon 5
Kemmer: Lt. Cmdr., why are all comm channels to Earth off-line?
Ivanova: Maintenance check. We wouldn't want the president to be out 
of touch when he gets here.
Kemmer: I demand that you open a channel to Earth at once.
Ivanova: I'm a Lt. Cmdr. in Earth Force, Major. I do not take demands. 
If you have a request, I'll consider it.
Kemmer: Very well, then I request that you open a channel to Earth dome.
Ivanova: Request denied. Have a nice day.
     --"Survivors", Babylon 5
Sinclair: Good morning, Lieutenant Commander. Sleep well?
Ivanova: Sleeping is not the problem. Waking up, that is a problem.
I've always had a hard time getting up when it's dark outside.
Sinclair: But in space it's always dark.
Ivanova: I know. I know.
     --"Signs and Portents", Babylon 5
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements: 
energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.
     --G'Kar "Survivors", Babylon 5
Tu'Pari: Are you Ambassador G'Kar?
G'Kar: This is Ambassador G'Kar's quarters, this is Ambassador G'Kar's 
table, this is Ambassador G'Kar's dinner, which part of this 
progression escapes you?
     --"The Parliament of Dreams", Babylon 5
Understanding is a three-edged sword.
     --Kosh "Deathwalker", Babylon 5
What do you want?
     --Morden "Signs and Portents", Babylon 5
Who am I? I'm Susan Ivanova.
Commander.
Daughter of Andrei and Sophie Ivanov.
I am the right hand of vengeance and the boot that is going to kick 
your sorry ass all the way back to Earth, sweetheart.
I am death incarnate.
And the last living thing that you're ever going to see.
God sent me.
     --Susan Ivanova, "Between the Light and the Darkness", Babylon 5
This is Mr. Harris. He's an atheist. Father Frisanti, a Roman 
Catholic. Mr. Hayakawa, a Zen Buddhist. Mr. Rashid, a Muslim. Mr. 
Rosenthal, an Orthodox Jew. Running Elk, of the Oglala Sioux faith.

Ochukiak, a Utic Eskimo. Sawa, of the Jivaro tribe. Ms. N'fuma, a 
Bantu. Ms. Chang, a Taoist. Mr. Blacksmith, an Aborigine. Ms. 
Yamamoto, a Shinto. Ms. Nigel, a Maori. Mr. Go, a Hindu...
     --Jeffrey Sinclair, "The Parliament of Dreams", Babylon 5
When you become obsessed with the enemy, you become the enemy.
     -- Jeffrey Sinclair, "Infection", Babylon 5
There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness 
of the soul
that has lost its way. The war we fight is not against powers and 
principalities,
it is against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is 
the death of
hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never surrender. 
The future
is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in 
moments of
revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will 
take us.
We know only that it is always born in pain.
     -- G'Kar, "Z'ha'dum", Babylon 5
Sheridan: We have an open door policy.
Ivanova: And an open airlock policy.
     -- "The Illusion of Truth", Babylon 5

After things have gone from bad to worse, the cycle will repeat itself.

 Pero` non dovete citarmi tutta la serie!!! :))))
Uffa !!!  ;-)
Luigi Rosa ha gia' citato una delle mie preferite, il monologo di G'Kar  
(sorpresa, sorpresa ..) da "Z'ha'dum", aggiungerei:
"I believe that when we leave a place, part of it goes with us and part of  
us remains. Go anywhere in the station, when it is quiet, and just listen.  
After a while, you will hear the echoes of all our conversations, every  
thought and word we've exchanged. Long after we are gone .. our voices  
will linger in these walls for as long as this place remains. But I will  
admit .. that the part of me that is going .. will very much miss the part  
of you that is staying"
G'Kar "Objects in Motion"
"Only one human captain has ever survived battle with a Minbari fleet. He  
is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be  
somewhere else."
Delenn "Severed Dreams"
"You talk like a Minbari, Commander. Perhaps there was some small wisdom  
in letting your species survive."
Neroon "Legacies"
"Isn't it strange, G'Kar? When we first met, I had no power .. and all the  
choices I could ever want. And now I have all the power I could ever want  
.. and no choices at all. No choice .. at all."
Londo "The fall of Centauri Prime"
"Mollari .. understand .. that I can never forgive your people for what  
they did to my world. My people can never forgive your people. But I  ..  
can forgive .. you."
G'Kar "The fall of Centauri Prime"

 vorrei sapere quali sono le vostre citazioni preferite di Babylon 5.
The Universe speaks in many languages, but only one voice. The 
language is not Narn, or Human, or Centauri, or Gaim or Minbari. It 
speaks in the language of hope; It speaks in the language of trust; It 
speaks in the language of strength, and the language of compassion. It 
is the language of the heart and the language of the soul. But always, 
it is the same voice. It is the voice of our ancestors, speaking 
through us, And the voice of our inheritors, waiting to be born. It is 
the small, still voice that says: We are one. No matter the blood; No 
matter the skin; No matter the world; No matter the star; We are one. 
No matter the pain; No matter the darkness; No matter the loss; No 
matter the fear; We are one. Here, gathered together in common cause. 
we agree to recognise this singular truth, and this singular rule: 
That we must be kind to one another, because each voice enriches us 
and ennobles us, and each voice lost diminishes us. We are the voice 
of the Universe, the soul of creation, the fire that will light the 
way to a better future. We are one.

All things are possible except skiing thru a revolving door.

Vorremmo mica omettere i caustici commenti britannici di Marcus?
Volete una citazione di Marcus?
    I am the very model of a modern Major-General,
    I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral,
    I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical
    From Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical;
    I'm very well acquainted, too, with matters mathematical,
    I understand equations, both the simple and quadratical,
    About binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot o' news,
    With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse.
    I'm very good at integral and differential calculus;
    I know the scientific names of beings animalculous:
    In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
    I am the very model of a modern Major-General.
    I know our mythic history, King Arthur's and Sir Caradoc's;
    I answer hard acrostics, I've a pretty taste for paradox,
    I quote in elegiacs all the crimes of Heliogabalus,
    In conics I can floor peculiarities parabolous;
    I can tell undoubted Raphaels from Gerard Dows and Zoffanies,
    I know the croaking chorus from The Frogs of Aristophanes!
    Then I can hum a fugue of which I've heard the music's din afore,
    And whistle all the airs from that infernal nonsense Pinafore.
    Then I can write a washing bill in Babylonic cuneiform,
    And tell you ev'ry detail of Caractacus' uniform:
    In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
    I am the very model of a modern Major-General.
    In fact, when I know what is meant by "mamelon" and "ravelin",
    When I can tell at sight a Mauser rifle[*] from a javelin,
    When such affairs as sorties and surprises I'm more wary at,
    And when I know precisely what is meant by "commissariat",
    When I have learnt what progress has been made in modern gunnery,
    When I know more of tactics than a novice in a nunnery—
    In short, when I've a smattering of elemental strategy—
    You'll say a better Major-General has never sat a-gee.
    For my military knowledge, though I'm plucky and adventury,
    Has only been brought down to the beginning of the century;
    But still, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral,
    I am the very model of a modern Major-General.

Ringrazio tutti per l'impegno che ci state mettendo. Il mio progetto in 
realta` sono due, uno e` il seguito del cortometraggio delle viti in cui 
vorrei metterci qualche citazione da Babylon 5, mentre l'altro e` 
incentrato completamente su B5 e vorrei avere del materiale da mettere 
online prima di parlarne cosi` da farvi vedere di cosa si tratta.


 E Zathras 
Everyone always coming to Zathras with problems.
Oh. No, noo. No no. You did not meet Zathras. You met Zathras. 
Only Zathras have no-one to talk to. No-one manages poor Zathras. 
Not the One. NOT the One.
There are 10 of us, all of family Zathras, each one named Zathras. 
We have never met before. But Zathras very pleased to be meeting you. 
What can Zathras be doing for you?
You have a destiny. Go. Please. Go for Zathras.
You must listen to Zathras.
Zathras does not want you being confused.
Zathras fixed.
Zathras good at doing, not so good at understanding. 
Zathras gone! Zathras warned Zathras, but Zathras never listened to 
Zathras.
Zathras have sad life, probably have sad death, but at least there is 
symmetry.
Zathras knew... you would not leave him.
Zathras talks to dirt. Sometimes talks to walls, or talks to ceilings. 
But dirt is closer.
Zathras trained in crisis management.
Zathras understand. No. Zathras not understand, but Zathras do. 
Zathras warn, but no, no one listen to poor Zathras, no. 
Zathras work here.

Per continuare.
Sheridan:   We are all alone now, just the younger races. We can't 
blame anyone else from now on. It's a new age, Delenn. A third age!
Delenn:   Why third?
Sheridan:   We begun in chaos, too primitive to make our own 
decisions. Then we were manipulated from outside by forces that 
thought they knew what was best for us. And now – now we are finally 
standing on our own. Lorien was right, it's a great responsibility. 
This is ours now.
Delenn:   Strange. The galaxy seems somehow smaller now that the First 
Ones are gone forever.
Sheridan:   It feels like the magic's gone now.
Delenn:   No, not gone. Now we make our own magic. Now we create our 
own legends. Now we build the future. Now we stop....
Sheridan:   ... being afraid of shadows.
(Into Fire)
It was the end of the Earth year 2261. It was the dawn of a new age 
for all of us. It was the end of one chapter, and the beginning of 
another.
The next twenty years would see great changes, great joy, great 
sorrow. The telepath war. The Drakh war. The new Alliance would waver 
and crack.
In the end, it would hold – because what is built endures. And what is 
loved endures. And Babylon 5... Babylon 5 endures.
(Delenn, fine della IV stagione)
An expedition to Coriana space found Sheridan's ship a few days later, 
but they never found him. All the airlocks were sealed, but there was 
no trace of him inside. Some of the Minbari believe he'll come back 
some day, but I never saw him again in my lifetime.
Babylon 5 was the last of the Babylon stations. There would never be 
another. It changed the future, and it changed us.
It taught us that we had to create the future, or others will do it 
for us. It showed us that we have to care for each other – because if 
we don't, who will? And that strength sometimes comes from the most 
unlikely of places.
Mostly, though, I think it gave us hope that there can always be new 
beginnings, even for people like us.
As for Delenn.... Every morning for as long as she lived, Delenn got 
up before dawn and watched the sun come up.
(Ivanova, fine di Sleeping in Light)
This is how the world ends, swallowed in fire... but not in darkness.
You will live on – the voice of all our ancestors, the voice of our 
fathers and our mothers, to the last generation.
We created the world we think you would have wished for us.
And now we leave the cradle for the last time.
(finale di Decostructions of Falling Stars)
It was the end of the Earth year 2260, and the war had paused, 
suddenly and unexpectedly.
All around us, it was as if the universe were holding its breath . . . 
waiting.
All of life can be broken down into moments of transition or moments 
of revelation. This had the feeling of both.
G'Quon wrote, There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is 
the darkness of the soul that has lost its way.
The war we fight is not against powers and principalities – it is 
against chaos and despair. Greater than the death of flesh is the 
death of hope, the death of dreams. Against this peril we can never 
surrender.
The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition, to be 
born in moments of revelation.
No one knows the shape of that future, or where it will take us. We 
know only that it is always born in pain.
