JAG, Season 1

Lt. Dumai:
Have you ever heard of Babylon?

Lt. J.G. Meg Austin:
Of course. Everyone's heard of ancient Babylon. The Tower, and the Hanging Gardens….

Lt. Dumai:
It is 3000 years old and we have other cities even older, and how old is America?

Lt. J.G. Meg Austin:
A little over 200 years.

Lt. Dumai:
Your country is like a child who has learned nothing yet thinks it knows everything. Let your civilization survive its first thousand years; then perhaps we'll begin to listen.

Lt. J.G. Meg Austin:
Even the young have something of value to offer.

Lt. Dumai:
But is it not for the old to decide if they want accept it?

Lt. J.G. Meg Austin:
Yes.

Lt. Dumai:
Then why do you try so hard to push your ways on me?

Lt. J.G. Meg Austin:
Because I can't stand to see anyone denied their human right.
