The epic battle between humans and Cylons continues Friday when the third season of Battlestar Galactica premieres. See how much you remember from the last two seasons and match the quote with the character.

1. Commander William Adama:
"You know, everyone I know is fighting to get back what they had. I'm fighting because I don't know how to do anything else."
"Well, forgive me, I'm having the tiniest little bit of trouble believing it because the last time anyone saw the Cylons they looked more like walking chrome toasters."
"I shaved very closely in anticipation of being smacked by you."
"I'm putting the fleet back together, I'm putting our family back together. This ends now."

2. Lt. Kara 'Starbuck' Thrace:
"Why do the Cylons come every thirty-three minutes? Why not thirty-four or thirty-five..."
"You'll forgive me, Madam President, if I don't wish to be executed based solely on your... gut feeling."
"Me in a dress is a once in a lifetime opportunity."
"Politics is the only thing more boring than blood samples."

3. Doctor Gaius Baltar:
"Humanity's children are returning home. Today."
"So the fate... of the entire human race depends upon my wild guess."
"You have an amazing capacity for self-deception. How do you do that?"
"Why do the Cylons come every thirty-three minutes? Why not thirty-four or thirty-five..."

4. Number Six:
"No more heart-massages for me, from now on I'm sticking to pills and enemas."
"There's a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people."
"I thought we were sparring."
"How do you propose to do that? 'Oh look, a Cylon device.' 'Really? Well, how do you know what a Cylon device looks like, Doctor?' 'Oh, I forgot to mention I'm familiar with their technology because I've been having sex with a Cylon for the past two years now.'"

5. Samuel T. Anders:
"Now, one of you has been coming in a little hot lately, a little too hot, a little, um - oh I don't know, he's-burning-up-the-deck-with-his-skids-because-he-just-can't-pull-back-on-the-throttle hot. Now who is this speed demon, my prince?"
"Lighten up a little bit. It's only the end of the world."
"You know what I miss? Sports."
"This is a military vessel; we have rumors for every occasion."
