- [talking to a dying Daniel Jackson]
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Because despite the fact that you've been a terrific pain in the ass for the last five years, I may have... might have, um, grown to admire you, a little. I think.
- Oma Desala: The Universe is vast and we are so small. There is really only one thing we can ever truly control.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: What's that?
- Oma Desala: Whether we are good or evil.
- Oma Desala: [talking about ascension] Many roads lead to the great path. Only the willing will find their way.
- Dr. Daniel Jackson: Okay, well I'm willing. So let's go. I mean, you know, do your thing. Glow me.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: [to Jonas Quinn] All right, let me be clear about something. I think this is the point Daniel was trying to make. A weapon of mass destruction can only be used for one thing. Now, you might think it'll ensure peace and freedom, but I guarantee you, it'll never have the effect you're hoping for until you use it, at least once.
- Teal'c: If you are to die, Daniel Jackson, I wish you to know that I believe that the fight against the Goa'uld will have lost one of its greatest warriors. And I will have lost one of my greatest friends.
- Major Samantha Carter: As we understand it, Jonas was responsible for overseeing the research from an ethical perspective.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: Yeah, whatever.
- Major Samantha Carter: He had several degrees from their most honored education institution. Social studies, ancient Kelownan history...
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: He was a nerd, sir. He and Daniel got along great.
- Colonel Jack O'Neill: A weapon of mass destruction can only be used for one thing. Now, you might think it will ensure peace and freedom, but I guarantee you it'll never have the effect you're hoping for until you use it, at least once. Now, just for the record, the reason we want that stuff is because we think it could be used to create defense shields. But you just go ahead, blow yourselves to hell with it.
