Thrown into a distant part of the universe, an Earth astronaut finds himself part of a fugitive alien starship crew.
[about using wormholes to travel through time and space and to alter history] John Crichton: Ah, screw it. But I am not Kirk, Spock, Luke, Buck, Flash or Arthur frelling Dent. I'm Dorothy Gale from Kansas.
Dominar Rygel XVI: I'm nobody's puppet.
General Ka D'Argo: Why do our plans never work? John Crichton: Murphy's Law.
[season one and two introduction] John Crichton: My name is John Crichton, an astronaut. A radiation wave hit and I got shot through a wormhole. Now I'm lost in some distant part of the universe on a ship, a living ship, full of strange alien life forms. Help me. Listen, please. Is there anybody out there who can hear me? I'm being hunted by an insane military commander. Doing everything I can. I'm just looking for a way home.
General Ka D'Argo: I am a full-blooded Luxan, and ladies, I have so much cash in my pocket that I can assure you that the three of us will crawl out of here on our hands and knees come sunrise tomorrow morning... [laughs] General Ka D'Argo: I've been arrested for saying exactly the same thing on four different planets.
John Crichton: My name is John Crichton. An astronaut. Four years ago, I got shot through a wormhole to a distant part of the galaxy. I ended up on a ship... this living ship, populated by escapee prisoners who became my friends.
[season four opening monologue] John Crichton: My name is John Crichton... an astronaut. Three years ago I got shot through a wormhole. I'm in a distant part of the universe aboard this living ship of escaped prisoners, my friends. I've made enemies. Powerful. Dangerous. Now all I want is to find a way home, to warn Earth. Look upward, and share... the wonders I have seen.
John Crichton: We don't have a lot of time; in fact, we have no time. We need your assistance. Pilot: Without hesitation.
[Rygel is advising Crichton to forget about Aeryn] Dominar Rygel XVI: When a woman, whether she's a wife, a lover, or a slave you've purchased to be a wife or lover, leaves you repeatedly... take the hint.
John Crichton: How do you say 'we're screwed' in your native tongue?

[John and is talking about Earth to his sister] John Crichton: Coming here was a mistake... it was an accident... and it shouldn't have happened. I know things that the government cannot hear.
