Bab 5 always had great ones

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."

Only one human captain has ever survived battle with the Minbari fleet. He is behind me. You are in front of me. If you value your lives, be somewhere else.

Ivanova is always right. I will listen to Ivanova. I will not ignore Ivanova's recommendations. Ivanova is God. *And*, if this ever happens again, Ivanova will personally rip your lungs out!

I am Susan Ivanova, Commander. Daughter of Andre 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, g*dda*mit! I am death incarnate, and the last living thing that you are ever going to see. God sent me

The universe began with a word. But which came first: the word or the thought behind the word? You can't create language without thought, and you can't conceive a thought without language, so which created the other, and thus created the universe?

If I take a lamp and shine it toward the wall, a bright spot will appear on the wall. The lamp is our search for truth ... for understanding. Too often, we assume that the light on the wall is God, but the light is not the goal of the search, it is the result of the search. The more intense the search, the brighter the light on the wall. The brighter the light on the wall, the greater the sense of revelation upon seeing it. Similarly, someone who does not search--who does not bring a lantern--sees nothing.

"If you give up your dream, you die."

Flashdance, 1983.

That's the quote that sticks with me the most because it's so true.

"In all of mankind's history, there has never been more damage done than by people who thought they were doing the right thing." - Lucy from Peanuts. (Written by Charles Schulz...)

That's one of my favorites, even if it's not from a movie...

"This is the war. Right f**king here! We play with guns, why do you think they wanna play for?"
From the film Pups. It gave me a sense of truth in the film, that has so much propaganda in it.

... it's so hard to stay mad, when theres so much beauty in the world. Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much. My heart fills up like a balloon that's abuot to burst and then I remember to relax, and stop trying to hold on to it. And then it flows through me like rain, and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment of my stupid little life...
From American Beauty. THis film has so many of these powerful lines. BUt this is the one that makes the most sense to me.
And I have seen the world differently ever since I heard these words come from Kevin Spacey's mouth.

We are the middle children of history, with no purpose or place. We have no great war, or great depression. The great war is a spiritual war. The great depression is our lives. We were raised by television to believe that we'd be millionares and movie gods and rock stars -- but we won't. And we're learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed-off.
From Fight Club. It just makes sense when I think about it.
