Separate the military and police

Battlestar Galactica (2004)

From: Battlestar Galactica (2004)

Episode: Water (2004) (Season 1, Episode 2)

There's a reason why you separate military and the police. One fights the Enemy of the State, the other serves and protects the People. When the military becomes... both... then the Enemies of the State tend to become the People.

Stand to your duties

Her last battle

Battlestar Galactica (2004)

From: Battlestar Galactica (2004)

This is the Admiral. Just so there'll be no misunderstandings later... Galactica's seen a lot of history, gone through a lot of battles... this will be her last. She will not fail us if we do not fail her. If we succeed in our mission, Galactica will bring us home. If we don't... it doesn't matter anyway.
