Edward James Olmos: Admiral William Adama

Quotes 

• Admiral William Adama : [reading to Laura in sickbay]  I dug into the stump and pulled rocks from the ground until my fingers bled. I collected seeds from the few fruits that the island offered and planted them in long, straight furrows, like the ranks of soldiers. When I finished, I looked at what I had done. I didn't see a garden. I saw a scar. This island had saved my life, and I had done it no service.
