Battlestar Galactica (2003) Quote
[Roslin sits alone on the floor; she calmly lights one page of a book on fire and begins turning the rest of the pages into the flame one by one. Admiral Adama enters]
Adama: We've gotta do something. Morale's going down the toilet. [sees the book] What are you doing? [realizes what the book is] Pythian prophecy. [sits down beside Roslin] Cottle told me that you didn't show up for your deloxin treatment.
Roslin: (flatly) That's right.
Adama: Do you wanna tell me why?
Roslin: I didn't feel like it.
Adama: You're gonna reschedule.
Roslin: I don't think so.
Adama: Laura, you need your treatments.
Roslin: No, I don't.
Adama: What are you doing? Are you just gonna lie down and quit? You're the one who made me believe in this-
Roslin: You shouldn't have listened to me. When the Cylons first attacked, you should've held your ground and kept fighting. Because I was wrong. I was wrong about everything. And all those people who listened, and they trusted me, and they followed me, all those people... they're dead. [Adama reaches out to stop her burning the book, but she brushes his hand away] Don't. Stop. Stop. (breaking down) Don't touch me. Just go.
[Adama slowly stands and walks out of the room]
Roslin: (crying) Burn. Just burn.
