Admiral Tolwyn: Mankind was at its zenith when fighting the Kilrathi. Now we stroll about complacent and confused. Who is going to save us when the next race tries to dominate us? Who knows where that attack will come from and when? No, we must be prepared.
Admiral Tolwyn: When you have a junkyard dog snapping at your heels the best thing to do is turn around and kick it in the chops.
Admiral Tolwyn: The price of freedom is eternal vigilance.
Colonel Blair: Space Marshall Tolwyn believes our victory over the Kilrathi to be a fluke, that we as a race need tinkering with, engineering. If a few billion die along the way, WELL they weren't worthy anyway! Why CAN'T we be more like the Kilrathi, ADDICTED to conflict, the ONLY MEANING IN LIFE being found in death, TELL US ALL, Admiral! Is THAT the Price of Freedom?
Colonel Blair: Hey, look on the bright side - now you don't have to deal with that Confed promotion that finally came through!
Maniac: My promotion came through? My promotion came through! (beat) Confed, wait, that's not... right...
Lt. Winston 'Vagabond' Chang: Full house, Aces and Eights.
Maniac: Humming God Save the Queen - Hm hm hm hm hm hm, Hm Hm Hm Hm HM HM, I GOT FOUR QUEENS!
