"If the book is holy, and I am holy, then I must help you become closer to the thoughts of the universe. Put your face in the book."

"Our thoughts form the universe, they always matter."

G'Kar "I was doing fine until you showed up with that... thing in hand."
Marcus "It's a Minbari fighting pike, several hundred years old. You are just jealous because you don't have one. Bad case of pikal envy, if you ask me."

G'Kar: "I've never had a friend before who wasn't a Narn."
Marcus: "I've never had a friend before who was a Narn."

G'Kar: "You want to be President?"
Sheridan: "I do."
G'Kar: "Put your hand on the book and say I do."
Sheridan: "I do."
G'Kar: "Fine. Done. Let's eat."

(to Londo): "Oh, go away. Repress someone else."

 "Perhaps we will find something extraordinary. Perhaps something extraordinary will find us."

Londo "Perhaps it is something I said?"
G'Kar "Perhaps it is everything you say."

"You do not make history, you can only hope to survive it."

"I did not fight to remove one dictator just to become another myself!"

 "If you confront the universe with good intentions in your heart, it will reflect that and reward your intent. Usually. It just doesn't always do it the way you expect."

Student: What is Truth—what is God?
G’Kar: If I take a lamp and shine it toward the wall, a bright stop will appear on the wall. The lamp is our search for truth, for understanding. Too often, we assume that the light on the wall is God, but the light is not the goal of the search, it is the result of the search. The more intense the search, the brighter the light on the wall. The brighter the light on the wall, the greater the sense of revelation upon seeing it. Similarly, someone who does not search, who does not bring a lantern with him, sees nothing.
What we perceive as God is the by-product of our search for God. It may simply be an appreciation for the light, pure and unblemished. Not understanding that it comes from us. Sometimes we stand in front of the light and assume that we are the center of the universe. God looks astonishingly like we do. Or we turn to look at our shadow and assume that all is darkness. If we allow ourselves to get in the way, we defeat the purpose, which is to use the light of our search to illuminate the wall in all its beauty and in all its flaws. And in so doing to better understand the world around us.
Student: Ah, yes, but what is Truth and what is God?
G’Kar: [sigh of defeat] Truth is a...river."
Student: And what is God?
G’Kar: God is...the mouth of the river.

Tu’Pari: “Are you Ambassador G’Kar?”
G’Kar: “This is Ambassador G’Kar’s quarters. This is Ambassador G’Kar’s table. This is Ambassador G’Kar’s dinner. What part of this progression escapes you?”

“No one here is exactly what they appear. Not Mollari, not Delenn, not Sinclair, and not me.”

“The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements - energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.”

"The future isn't what it used to be."

G'Kar: "If I were married to Londo Mollari, I'd be concerned."
Mariel: "G'Kar, if you were married to Londo Mollari, we'd all be concerned."

Londo:"What reasonable explanation is there for the slaughter of unarmed civilians?"
G'Kar: "Curious, we wondered the same thing when you invaded our world. The wheel turns does it not, Ambassador?"

 "It is a strange thing, but every sentient race has its own version of these Swedish meatballs. I suspect it's one of those great universal mysteries that will either never be explained, or which would drive you mad if you ever learned the truth."

G'Kar (looking at Daffy Duck): "I was studying this image. Is it one of his household gods?"
Zack: "That's Daf- Yeah. Well, in a way I suppose it is. It's sort of the Egyptian god of Frustration."
G'Kar: "Most appropriate! Thank you!"

"My eye offended him."

"An empty eye sees through to an empty heart."

"I have seen what power does, and I have seen what power costs. The one is never equal to the other."

"No dictator, no invader can hold an imprisoned population by force of arms forever. There is no greater power in the universe than the need for freedom. Against that power, governments and tyrants and armies cannot stand. The Centauri learned that lesson once. We will teach it to them again. Though it take a thousand years, we will be free."
