What's the quote on your icon from? I know I know and it's driving me nuts that I can't remember.

Mallory: "And we went to the moon. Do we really have to go to Mars?"

Sam: "Yes."

Mallory: "Why?"

Sam: "'Cause it's next! Because we came out of the cave, and we looked over the hill, and we saw fire. And we crossed the ocean, and we pioneered the West, and we took to the sky. The history of man is hung on the timeline of exploration, and this is what's next."

Mallory: "I know."

Sam: "People like you, who say that... [beat] What?"

Mallory: "I said I know. We're supposed to be explorers."

Sam: "Then what the hell?"

Mallory: "I just want to hear you talk about it."

Sam: "You know something?"

Mallory: "You get all puffed up."

Sam: "You're a pain in the ass."

SG-1 purists say the later seasons/SGA lost that sense of exploration, of stepping through the gate simply to advance our understanding of the universe. What I love about Cam is that he's got this sense of wonder, even though the S9-10 plot itself steered away from it.
