And They Taught Me Terror
Marcus Cole:The Minbari say the only way to understand the battle is to understand the language. War is as much concept as execution.Dr. Stephen Franklin:What else did they teach you?Marcus Cole:Delight. Respect. Compassion. That for your actions to be pure they must proceed from direction, determination, patience, and strength. I’m afraid I’m still working on patience. They taught me how to live, how to breathe, how to fight and how to die.And they taught me terror. How to use it. And how to face it.Dr. Stephen Franklin:I think I’d like to hear more about that.Marcus Cole:No, you wouldn’t.— “A Late Delivery from Avalon” – Babylon 5, Season 3 (1996)
