- Lord de Quincy: This story was a fantasy. But in the three hours it took to tell it, eighteen thousand acres of rain forest have been destroyed forever. Seven million tons of Co2 have been produced. Twelve species of life became extinct. Twenty three square miles of land became desert. In three hours. This story was a fantasy... perhaps.
- Walter: I have to warn you, Mr. Du Pond, that Zimmerman hasn't eaten all day, and your nose would make a substantial meal for anyone.

- Sly Morgan: Do you remember the moon landings? All that effort, a whole generation ago. And since then, nothing. Why do you think that is, Rachel?
- Rachel: Well, I'm sure you're going to tell me.
- Sly Morgan: We bought it.
- Rachel: You bought the moon?
- Sly Morgan: Well not me personally, I was just a kid at the time, myself. But the then members of the Stark conspiracy bought it.
- Sly Morgan: Of course there's a whole lot more already in orbit around the moon. A whole lunar village based on bio-sphere technology. They've been working on it for years. All those commercial launches, satellite TV, forget it. It was cover for Stark. Why do you think the programs were so bloody awful?
- Sly Morgan: Rachel, I'm offering you the moon.
- Rachel: Well, that's certainly better than the stuff about the kangaroos.
- Lord de Quincy: My guest on the Star Arks, is to be a ten stone bag of heroine. I intend to have the most meaningful relationship on the colony.
- Sly Morgan: Did I ever tell ya, before I became a corporate raider, I was actually a fairly honest thief?
