18 %% "This is not a clear and present danger? I *must* read the rulebook again." -- Ivanova, "Soul Hunter" %% "Even as children, every Minbari is told to be careful or the Soul Hunter will come in the might and steal their souls. They are immortal. Noone knows who they are or where they come from. But they can sense death. They are drawn to death like insects drawn to the light." -- Delenn (re: soul hunters), "Soul Hunter" %% "Send it away, while you still can." -- Delenn (re: Soul Hunter), "Soul Hunter" %% "We are not thieves. We are preservers." 'Thought that might get your attention.' "We act only for the greater good." -- Soul Hunter #1 and Sinclair, "Soul Hunter" %% "Minbari: pale, bloodless. Look in their eyes and see nothing but mirrors, infinities of reflection." -- Soul Hunter #1, "Soul Hunter" %% "We are drawn to the moment...the moment of surrender. The instant of loss. Between despair and ecstasy. When the flesh fails and all the remains behind. The soul we save. Not all. Only the special ones. Leaders. Thinkers. Poets. Dreamers. Blessed lunatics." -- Soul Hunter #1, "Soul Hunter" %% "Minbari: jealous, selfish, private. We have saved only a few. Very rare. Rarest of all: their leader, Dukaht. Dying: your fault. Your war. The pinnacle of Minbari evolution. We came - I, others. They made a wall of bodies to stop us. He died and his dreams, his ideas...all that he was, all that he could ever be...gone, wasted. Jealous. Gone. Gone." -- Soul Hunter #1, "Soul Hunter" %% "Blood pressure is rising, respiration up 12%." "So that's good, right?" "For a human, yes. In this case, it may be good. Or he may be hyperventilating before his heart explodes all over the isoloab." -- Franklin and Garibaldi, "Soul Hunter" %% "How's he doing?" "Doc says it's 50-50. Either way, I'd stay on this side of the glass if I were you; trust me on this." -- Sinclair and Garibaldi, "Soul Hunter" %% "It's all so brief, isn't it? Typical human life span is almost a hundred years, but it's barely a second compared to what's out there. Wouldn't be so bad if life didn't take so long to figure out. Seems you just start to get it right and then...it's over." 'Doesn't matter. If we lived two hundred years, we'd still be human. We'd still make the same mistakes.' -- Dr. Franklin and Ivanova, "Soul Hunter" %% "You're a pessimist." 'I am *Russian*, Doctor. We understand these things." -- Dr. Franklin and Ivanova, "Soul Hunter" %% "What is one of the great leaders of the Minbari doing here playing ambassador?" -- Soul Hunter #1 (to Delenn), "Soul Hunter" %% "I really hate it when you get heroic. Cuts into my business. Man's gotta earn a living, you know?" -- Garibaldi (to Sinclair), "Soul Hunter" %% "You would plan such a thing? You would *do* such a thing? Incredible." -- Soul Hunter #1 (to Delenn), "Soul Hunter" %% "Why do you fight for her? Don't you understand? She is Satai! She is Satai! I have seen her soul. They're using you. They're using you!' -- Soul Hunter #1 (to Sinclair), "Soul Hunter" %% "We were right about you." -- Delenn (to Sinclair), "Soul Hunter" %% "From the stars we came and to the stars we return, from now until the end of time. We therefore commit this body to the deep." -- LCdr. Susan Ivanova, "Soul Hunter" %% "Life's full of mysteries. Consider this one of them." -- Sinclair, "Soul Hunter"
