  • I need help finding an appropriate quote

    Ok guys...

    i have an odd request, and i'm going to give ya'll the short version.

    i've had a relationship end, a girl i was as Marcus would put it "quite fond of"
    and i'm writing this girl a last letter to say good bye. Well we're both huge B5 fan's in fact Babylon 5 is one of the things we have in common and a starting point for our relationship

    anyways to end my letter, i'm looking for a good 'good-bye' quote from the B5-verse. preferably one form Londo as we both really like him...but if anyone can think of anything that's useful i'm willing to give it a look

    I'm looking for a more wry/funnyish tone rather than serious but all ideas are welcome. So far all i've got is this

    I believe that when we leave a place, part of it goes with us and part of us remains. Go anywhere in the station, when it is quiet, and just listen. After a while, you will hear the echoes of all our conversations, every thought and word we've exchanged. Long after we are gone .. our voices will linger in these walls for as long as this place remains. But I will admit .. that the part of me that is going .. will very much miss the part of you that is staying."
    -- G'Kar to Sheridan in Babylon 5:"Objects in Motion"

    Thanx all!

    Sorry to hear about your relationship, Fearless. Here's a quote that might work but it's not from Londo:

    As you continue on your path, you will lose some friends and gain some new ones. The process is painful, but often necessary. They will change and you will change, because life is change. From time to time, they must find their own way and that way may not be yours. Enjoy them for what they are and remember them for what they were.
    If I think of anything else, I'll post.

        Oh! I'm sorry. That was Sheridan in the message that he recorded for his unborn child in "Objects at Rest".

          "The dream is prophecy."
          "Prophecy is a guess that comes true. When it doesn't, it's a metaphor. You could put a gun to your head tomorrow and pull the trigger, and then the dream is just a dream, and the prophecy is just a metaphor, and so are you. You're out of time, Londo. Turn around."

                  Now, guys...we've only been waiting since May 2002. JMS is a very busy man.

                  You'll just have to use the scripts for a little while.

                    "This is how the world ends, swallowed in fire, but not in darkness. You will live on. The voice of all our ancestors, the voice of our fathers and our mothers to the last generation. We created the world we think you would've wished for us. And now we leave the cradle for the last time."
