General Vidrine : What makes it fly?
Major Samantha Carter : It's difficult to explain, Sir. The power plant doesn't exert force against gravity so much as take inertia out of the equation. Even pilots are immune to ordinary G forces. We don't completely understand the physics...
General Vidrine : Major, I'll just accept the fact that it flies.

Jacob Carter/Selmak : what were you thinking, anyway? Retrofitting a death glider? You should have known better. The technology you're screwing around with is way over your head.
Major Samantha Carter : That is the most arrogant... I can't believe that that just came out of your mouth!
Jacob Carter/Selmak : Well, it's the truth.
Major Samantha Carter : You of all people should know.
Jacob Carter/Selmak : I am uniquely qualified to know just how technologically infantile the human race is.
Major Samantha Carter : Infantile?
Jacob Carter/Selmak : Yes, in comparison with the Goa'uld and Tok'ra, you're very young.
Major Samantha Carter : You... you are so...
Jacob Carter/Selmak : There's nothing wrong with being young, but you've got to learn to take small steps. You can't just slap a US Air Force sticker on the side of a death glider and call it yours. Advancement like that has to be earned.
Dr. Daniel Jackson : Um, aren't the Goa'uld, and the Tok'ra, for that matter, where they are by stealing the technology from other races?
Major Samantha Carter : Yes!
Jacob Carter/Selmak : Yes, but the Tok'ra were flying around in ships like these when most of the people on Earth thought it was flat.
