Memorable Quotes
Edit
“"What could make her turn like this?"
"Well, let's see. She was adjusted by the Vorlons, dumped by the Vorlons, used as a weapon, quit the Corps, lost the only man she ever loved and dedicated herself to finishing his work. Pick one or all of the above and, let's face it, she's pissed."
- – John Sheridan & Stephen Franklin about Lyta Alexander
“"I tell you, the next person who act irrationally, I'm gonna shoot myself in the head."
"(storming in) Bastards!"
"Did she just--?"
"She did."
"I'll get the gun."
- – John Sheridan, Delenn & Stephen Franklin
“"I can help you, and you can help me. So if you're interested, I'll try and get us transferred to a cell where we can talk privately, without having that camera watch over us the whole time."
"(camera explodes) What camera?"
- – Michael Garibaldi & Lyta Alexander
“"You know the Vorlons used telepaths as weapons during the Shadow War, but what no one stopped to consider was that, in a war, you have a certain number of small weapons, a certain number of medium size weapons, and one or two big ones. The kind of weapons you drop when you're out of small weapons, and the medium weapons, and you've got nothing left to use."
"Someone like that would be the telepathic equivalent of a thermonuclear device. A doomsday weapon."
"Pleased to meet you, Mr. Garibaldi"
- – Lyta Alexander & Michael Garibaldi about her alteration
