Quotes

“	Kuzzey: "Flay, are you a member of Blue Cosmos?" Flay: "No, I'm not! But what those people are saying isn't wrong, is it? People who have their genes manipulated, even if they're not sick or anything, are a mistaken existence that opposes nature's providence."	”
—Kuzzey Buskirk and Flay Allster when asked if she was a member of the Blue Cosmos, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Songstress of The Enemy Forces

“	Kira: "I'm... I'm also... a Coordinator." Lacus: "Is that right? But the reason you are kind is that you are you, right? Would you mind telling me your name?" Kira: "Ah, K-Kira. Kira Yamato." Lacus: "Oh. Thank you, Mr. Kira."	”
—Kira Yamato and Lacus Clyne, Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Songstress of The Enemy Forces

“	"Is it that girl singing? What a beautiful voice! But I can't help wondering if that voice is also a result of fiddling with her genes?"	”
—Sai Argyle about Lacus Clyne., Mobile Suit Gundam SEED, The Songstress of The Enemy Forces
