    Actually Lee proved that everyone was guilty, and thus Baltar should not be held accountable for everyone elses guilt, especially when they were pardoned.

      Lee's trial speech from season three was excellent. Adama has made a few nice speeches to encourage the fleet though in BSG. The one at the end of the miniseries was quite good.

      I liked a lot of the things Romo Lampkin said too. Hell, BSG probably comes out with a lot of the best scifi dialogue.

          the bsg one was great, there are loads in bsg.
          mal's speech in serenity was memorable too. there's probably some in buffy/angel too. joss whedon seems to be good at that stuff..

            This one kinda speaks for itself:

            "The Universe speaks in many languages, but only one voice.
            The language is not Narn or Human or Centauri or Gaim or Minbari.
            It speaks in the language of hope. It speaks in the language of trust.
            It speaks in the language of strength, and the language of compassion.
            It is the language of the heart and the language of the soul.
            But always it is the same voice.
            It is the voice of our ancestors speaking through us.
            And the voice of our inheritors waiting to be born.
            It is the small, still voice that says 'We are one'.
            No matter the blood, no matter the skin,
            No matter the world, no matter the star,
            We are one.
            No matter the pain, no matter the darkness,
            No matter the loss, no matter the fear.
            We are one.
            Here, gathered together in common cause
            We agree to recognize this singular truth and this singular rule:
            That we must be kind to one another.
            Because each voice enriches us and ennobles us,
            And each voice lost diminishes us.
            We are the voice of the universe, the soul of creation,
            The fire that will light the way to a better future.
            We are one. "
            Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

                B5.

                And the best speech, the one that Ivanova made during the Season three intro.

                  Haha, I recognized that as G'Kar's words before finishing the first line One of the best speeches of B5 (or any other sci-fi for that matter).

                        Y'all got on this boat for different reasons, but y'all come to the same place. So now I'm asking more of you than I have before. Maybe all. Sure as I know anything, I know this - they will try again. Maybe on another world, maybe on this very ground swept clean. A year from now, ten? They'll swing back to the belief that they can make people... better. And I do not hold to that. So no more runnin'.

                        I aim to misbehave.
