-Gerentex, Fear and Loathing in the Milky Way

"Well, I'll make a note of that."
Rev and Dylan, The Devil Take the Hindmost
"I'm given to understand that your genetic material has become the foundation for an entire race of warrior priests? I'm intrigued...and, perhaps, a bit jealous."

"You see? Not only is there a Divine, but he has a twisted sense of humour."
-Rev Bem, All too Human

"Would it have made a difference?"
-Kim and Rommie, All to Human

"Ugh, I'm getting exhausted just watching you."
-Charlamagne Bolivar (to Tyr as he runs down the hall for exercise), Into the labyrinth

"Well, since pride Jaguar refused to stand with us against the Drago-Kazov, none."
"Exactly. Instead of breeding for such obvious attributes, your people should have concentrated on more important things -- treachery, cunning, proper table manners."

"She’s pregnant with our first child. And before you start feeling paternal I checked, its mine."
"I checked its mine?"
-Chalimagne Bolivar and Rommie, Into the Labyrinth

"The usual."
- Tyr and Charlemagne Bolivar, Into the Labyrinth
"There are at least three good reasons why you shouldn't let the Sabre-Jaguar join the new Commonwealth, we are renowned for our treachery, we are at war with the Drago-Kazov pride and we will constantly remind you of your genetic inferiority.

-Brendan, Bunker Hill
"That's the thing, cousin, I'm part of the fire. I need to be."

-Molly, Lava and Rockets

-Molly and Dylan, Lava and Rockets
"You wanna dump tanks of protons and antiprotons? What are you, an escaped mental patient?"

-Molly and Dylan, Lava and Rockets
"It wasn't me, I swear!"
"It wasn't you who did what?"
"What do you mean?"
"I haven't even told you why I'm angry!"

"Uh… lemme think… uh, I know… It wasn't me, I swear!"
"Well, at least he's consistent."

"Captain Hunt! I'm giving you a direct order! Priority Omega 316 Omega."
