- [ After discussing Kara Thrace's fate ]
Commander William Adama: Yeah, I guess I'm just a crazy old man.
Colonel Saul Tigh: You sure as hell are. Just like me. No wonder they're about to put us both out to pasture.
Adama: A couple of old warhorses, eh?
Tigh: More like a couple of old mules, if you ask me.
