Is this Babylon 5 or Tennessee Williams?

I found this quote online often attributed to either Tennessee Williams or a Babylon 5 episode:

There comes a time when you look into the mirror and you realize that what you see is all that you will ever be. And then you accept it. Or you kill yourself. Or you stop looking in mirrors.

I think the latter is more likely but also it could just be completely made up. The epsiode title is given as Chrysalis sometimes, e. g: on IMDB.

Sounds like Londo from B5, the show isn't streaming anymore, but I do have all the episodes, I can check it later.

Edit It's Londo, to Mr. Morden:

Did it leave Tubi? My wife and I were watching it on there earlier this year!

Thank you!

I know these things are random but I wonder how it ended up misattributed to Williams of all people...
