Why shouldn’t we give up the Stargate? One word: Sha’re. My wife is still out there and I’m not resting until I find her. I can’t believe Jack—that anyone—is even considering this. I mean, we’ve got people out there. This is insane.

But how can I ask someone to give up Earth for the hope of finding my wife? Just because I would do it, doesn’t mean I should ask someone else to.

Jack would do it if I asked, though. Which is why I shouldn’t—can't—ask.

It isn’t fair to wield such power.
