"[To the mercenaries] The Varda teach us to trust first and judge later. I'm sorry for the reception you've got. Welcome to our city, Defenders of Akir!"

"Hear me, beings of Akir: I am Sador of the Malmori. I have come with my forces to conquer you. If you resist, I will crush you. I possess a stellar converter, the most powerful weapon in the universe. You cannot resist me. I want your planet to be my colony. Your harvest comes in seven risings of your red giant. I will return then, and you will accept me as your master. If you do not submit, your planet and all life on it will be burned to ash."

"The First Law of the Varda is to use greater force against itself."

"[Nestor explains why "he" would like to participate in the Malmor-Akir War] You see, there is only one Nestor, one consciousness. As you might imagine, this has proven very lonely, very dull. We must avoid becoming... we believe you have a phrase for it... becoming "bored to death.""

"The sphere has no destructive capabilities. It was conceived to appear as a threat. As a judgement."

"A self-replicating material called Bio-Mech 34987, capable of building huge structures to a preconceived design very quickly. The patent of the advanced Achilles program which I am very proud."

"Before it reaches the Earth, the sphere will self-destruct. A co-ordinated military strike credited with its destruction. By then, billions will already be dead. The sphere's secret hidden forever. If we do nothing, the planet will die. There will be no one left."

"I'll tell you a story about a once beautiful planet that sits at the center of the Milky Way. The planet that was once the crown jewel of the known Universe. The planet whose beauty was beyond comprehension and then came human beings and over tens of thousands of years this planet was brought to the very point of extinction. 21 billion people now cram into the 15 percent of the Earth's service that is now still habitable. Scientists tell us that within 30 years, this planet will die. The human race must be culled. The many sacrificed to save the few or we all die."
