Babylon 5, Season 1: Signs and Portents
[Sinclair is listening to an audio recording of Tennyson's Ulysses in his quarters]
Catherine:
Tennyson? Jeff, you've been caught on that one since the Academy! What's it take to drag you into the 23rd century?
Sinclair:
We find meaning where we can.
Catherine:
Ah, and which are you? "An idle king…doling unequal laws unto a savage race that hoard and sleep and feed and know not you"? Or, "this gray spirit, yearning in desire to follow knowledge like a sinking star"?
Sinclair:
I didn't know you'd memorized it!
Catherine:
I lived with you for a year. I didn't have much choice.
