And now, for today's installment, a variety of B5 quotes... in Latin!

1. "Non Zathras fuit. Zathras fuit!"
("That was not Zathras. That was Zathras!")

2. "Ivonavae auscultabo. Non suggestiones Ivonavae neglegam. Ivonava Dea est. Et, si umquam interum hoc accidit, ispa Ivonava pulmones tuos eripiet!"
("I will listen to Ivonava. I will not ignore Ivonava's recommendations. Ivonava is God. And, if this ever happens again, Ivonava will personally rip your lungs out!")

3. "Quis sum? Susan Ivonava, ductrix, Andrei et Sophiae Ivonavae filia. Dextra ultionis et caliga vilissimum corporem tuum usque ad terram calcitratura. Mors incarnata sum et ultimum viventem umquam videbis. Deus me misit."
("Who am I? I'm Susan Ivanova, Commander, daughter of Andrei and Sofie Ivanov. I am the right hand of vengeance, and the boot that is gonna kick your sorry ass back to Earth. I am death incarnate and the last living thing you're ever going to see. God sent me.")

4. Morden: "Quid facies, Mollare? Insulam displodes?"
Londo: "Etiam... quia hoc dicis..."
[boom!]
("Morden: "What are you going to do, Mollari? Blow up the island?"
Londo: "Actually... now that you mention it...")


5. G'Kar: "Quod potestas facit vidi. Quod postestas constat vidi. Numquam alter atlerum aequat."
("I have seen what power does. And I have seen what power costs. The one is never equal to the other.")
