    It's pretty much the most unpleasent part of the station, not counting the methane bathrooms. It's full of heavy machinery, lead walls and pipe all over the place.

      "I think I've gotta go to the bathroom."
      All generalizations are false, including this one.

        There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against such power, governments, and kingdoms, and conquerors cannot stand.
        WE WILL BE FREE!

            And that is exactly what you must give up. Yes, you have lost much, endured much, sacrificed greatly, but you cling to the memory of your sacrifices, of all the things you have lost or left behind. They drag behind you, like chains of your own making. They can have a terrible power over you, Marcus. The power of grief, and loss, and regret. Yes, you have let go of the people, the places, the things, but you have not let go of the pain. You have not forgiven yourself.

              "No, there is nothing to be done. I have already done more than enough. I only wanted to call, to tell you that I am sorry for what happened. I never meant him any harm, I never intended for it to happen, it just... happened. I cannot even ask you to forgive me, because I know I will never forgive myself."

                Without the hope that things will get better, that our inheriters will know a world that is fuller and richer than our own, life is pointless, and evolution is vastly overrated.

                  "It is said that the future is always born in pain. The history of war is the history of pain. If we are wise, what is born of that pain matures into the promise of a better world, because we learn that we can no longer afford the mistakes of the past."

                    I don't understand you Michael. We have got a good life here, we've got history. You have met this Sinclair twice and now you are off to Babylon 5, just like that. Doesn't what we have mean anything to you.
                    What a wonderful world you live in. -
                    Yeah, well, the rent is cheap, the pay is decent and I get to make my own hours.

                      Every day I get up, and I hope nothing will happen. I'd love to be just bored out of my skull for 24 hours, and .. I guess I keep hoping that someday, somewhere I'll make a difference, that at the end of the day everything we've gone through here for the past few years will mean something.
