“Sooner or later, everyone comes to Babylon 5.”

“The universe puts us into places where we can learn. We don't have to be in that place forever.”

“Understanding is a three-edged sword.”

“The avalanche has already started. It is too late for the pebbles to vote.”

“Passion gets you through the bad times. If you're not passionate, you'll give up.”

“The future is all around us, waiting in moments of transition to be born in moments of revelation.”

“Faith manages.”

“We are all the sum of our tears. Too little and the ground is not fertile, and nothing can grow. Too much, the best of us is washed away.”

“It is a poor worker who blames his tools.”

“Never open a door that you are not willing to walk through.”

“The moment you have an idea, it starts to decay. You have to get it down.”

“How do you know the truth? What if you're wrong? You don't. You take a leap of faith.”

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

“No one is ever truly alone. We are all connected by the same journey, the same hopes, the same fears.”

“There is a greater darkness than the one we fight. It is the darkness of the soul that has lost its way.”
