| Declaration of Principles of the Interstellar AllianceThe Universe speaks in many languages,
					but only one voice.
 The language is not Narn, or Human, or Centauri,
 or Gaim or Minbari.
 It speaks in the language of hope
 It speaks in the language of trust
 It speaks in the language of strength
 and the language of compassion
 It is the language of the heart
 and the language of the soul
 But always, it is the same voice
 It is the voice of our ancestors,
 speaking through us,
 And the voice of our inheritors,
 waiting to be born
 It is the small, still voice that says:
 We are one
 No matter the blood
 No matter the skin
 No matter the world
 No matter the star
 We are one
 No matter the pain
 No matter the darkness
 No matter the loss
 No matter the fear
 We are one.
 Here, gathered together in common cause.
 We agree to recognize this singular truth
 and this singular rule:
 That we must be kind to one another
 because each voice enriches us and ennobles us
 and each voice lost diminishes us
 We are the voice of the Universe,
 the soul of creation,
 the fire that will light the way to a better future
 We are one
 We are One.
