   "What interests me, what I wanted to do with making this show, was in   
   large measure to examine the issues and emotions and events that precede   
   a war, precipitate a war, the effects of the war itself, the end of the   
   war and the aftermath of the war. The war is hardware; the people are at   
   the center of the story." - J. Michael Straczynski
