Commander William Adama There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.

Brother Cavil In all your travels, have you ever seen a star go supernova?
Ellen Tigh No.
Brother Cavil No? Well, I have. I saw a star explode and send out the building blocks of the Universe. Other stars, other planets and eventually other life. A supernova! Creation itself! I was there. I wanted to see it and be part of the moment. And you know how I perceived one of the most glorious events in the universe? With these ridiculous gelatinous orbs in my skull! With eyes designed to perceive only a tiny fraction of the EM spectrum. With ears designed only to hear vibrations in the air.
Ellen Tigh The five of us designed you to be as human as possible.
Brother Cavil I don't want to be human! I want to see gamma rays! I want to hear X-rays! And I want to - I want to smell dark matter! Do you see the absurdity of what I am? I can't even express these things properly because I have to - I have to conceptualize complex ideas in this stupid limiting spoken language! But I know I want to reach out with something other than these prehensile paws! And feel the wind of a supernova flowing over me! I'm a machine! And I can know much more! I can experience so much more. But I'm trapped in this absurd body! And why? Because my five creators thought that God wanted it that way!

Commander William Adama [giving a speech in the Hanger Deck] We have struggled since the attacks... trying to rely on one another. Our strength and our only hope as a people, is to remain undivided. We haven't always done all we could to insure that. Many people believe that the scriptures, the letters from the gods, will lead us to salvation. Maybe they will. But the gods shall lift those who lift each other." And so, to lift all of us, let me present once again the president of the colonies, Laura Roslin.
[many members of the audience applaud but some do not. Adama walks to the crowd and begins to clap in rhythm. The crowd slowly catches on and eventually the entire Hanger Deck is applauding in rhythm as a sign of respect for the reinstated president]

Commander William Adama [Cain has not given Tyrol and Helo the courts martial that she promised she would, and has sentenced them to death. Adama argues over the radio] You told me they'd get a fair trial. What kind of trial could they have possibly had?
Admiral Helena Cain I assure you I heard them out. I weighed their statements against those of the guards and I took into consideration their service records and commendations. It was a difficult decision Commander, but I dare say it was a fair one.
Commander William Adama They have the right to have their case heard by a jury!
Admiral Helena Cain I am a flag officer on detached service during a time of war. Regulations give me broad authority in this matter.
Commander William Adama [to Tigh] Launch the fighters.
[to Cain]
Commander William Adama You can quote me whatever regulation you'd like. I'm not going to let you execute my men!
Admiral Helena Cain I highly suggest you reconsider that statement, Commander.
Colonel Jack Fisk Admiral, Galactica is launching Vipers and a Raptor.
Admiral Helena Cain Commander, why are you launching Vipers?
Commander William Adama Please arrange for Chief Tyrol and Lieutenant Agathon to be handed over to my marines as soon as they arrive.
Admiral Helena Cain I don't take orders from you!
Commander William Adama Call it whatever you like. I'm getting my men.
Admiral Helena Cain You are making *such* a mistake!
Commander William Adama I'm getting my men!
[hangs up]
Admiral Helena Cain Action stations.

Colonel Jack Fisk Admiral, this will spiral out of control fast.

Doctor Gaius Baltar [Baltar has a two-way argument with Roslin and Number Six at the same time] Well, quite frankly, I don't give a flying frak whether you believe me or not, all right? Because I've had it, I am... I'm tired of being pushed and prodded around like I'm some kind of toy. I'm not your plaything!
Number Six Number Six, President Laura Roslin: [simultaneously, in stereo] Plaything?
Doctor Gaius Baltar I don't work for you and uh, quite frankly, I don't have to sit any more and take this kind of abuse from either of you!... Er,

Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama Pilot who can't keep her pants on.
Captain Lee 'Apollo' Adama Oh, it is just like old times, Kara. Like when you got drunk and you couldn't keep your hands off that major from wherever...

Doctor Gaius Baltar Life can be a curse, as well as a blessing. You will believe me when I say that there are far worse things than death in this world.
Lt. Sharon 'Boomer' Valerii So what you're saying is...
Doctor Gaius Baltar No, no. What I'm saying means nothing. Listen to your heart. Do that which you truly believe to be right.

Romo Lampkin I understand that you had a romantic relationship with my client.
Number Six Gaius Baltar is a brilliant, gifted human being. In the time I've known him, he's made a sport out of mendacity and deception. He is narcissistic, feckless, self-centered, and vain. I'm the one who should have stabbed him.

Crewman Specialist Cally [analyzing the bio-mechanical Cylon Raider captured by Starbuck, Tyrol crawls inside the Raider with a flashlight while Cally reads him Starbuck's notes] Starbuck's notes on the Cylon Raider are a mess! She said the engine power-up sequence began... "By squeezing something that looks like a red ligament with blue veins on the right side... coming out of a sack of gooey fluid... shaped like a dog".
Chief Petty Officer Tyrol Are you kidding me? This whole thing is a bunch of veins and ligaments and sacks of goo!
Crewman Specialist Cally "... Squeeze the ligament with your hand, while you slide your weight on your left hip, into the lymphatic sack... "
Chief Petty Officer Tyrol Well, that's just stupid!

Racetrack No, I just want it to end, okay? The bad food, the endless rotations, pretending that a card game is the high point of our day.
Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace It's not going to last forever, all right? Earth is out there.
Racetrack Right. We could all be chasing our tails over some half-assed planetarium show.
Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace And you guys can all go to hell. I'm going to go find Helo.
