Well .... They're about (unless they have already done it) to release the first season complete on DVD. If memory serves, it is either a five or six DVD disk set.Originally posted by Garf:

My favourite Marcus quote: "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe."Originally posted by Vargas:
Virtually anything from Kosh is quotable and although not original, Marcus' "You can get more done with a kind word and a 2x4 than you can with just a kind word" really stand out.
Doug Berry pointed out on the TML, that of all the people who Mr. Morden asked what they wanted, only Vir got what he asked for with no strings attached.Originally posted by BenBell:
Which reminds me of another classic Vir quote.
"I'd like to live just long enough to be there when they cut off your head and stick it on a pike as a warning to the next ten generations that some favors come with too high a price. I want to look up into your lifeless eyes and give a little wave like this. "

"Can you and your associates arrange that for me, Mr. Morden?"

It was said by G'Kar, not J'Kar but a minor point, and it came from the episode A Late Delivery From Avalon (which isn't actually as bad as it sounds.)By, J'quat, I can't recall the last time I was in a fight like that. Nooo moral ambiguity. Noooo hopelss battle against ancient and overwhelming forces. They were the bad guys, as you say. We were the good guys. And they made a most satisfying thump when they hit the floor!"
-Sir J'Kar, the Red Knight to King Authur. (I think the episode was 'Grail' where the man who started the Earth-Minbar war had gone looney and though he was King Authur.)
More B5, Mr Bester to B5 Security Guard; "Nice to know they are continuiing the tradition of recruiting from the shallow end of the gene pool."Originally posted by MT++:
