Benjamin Sisko: Dax, I can't believe it.
Ezri Dax: I can hardly believe it myself. But I'm Dax. I mean I'm not Jadzia Dax. I'm Ezri Dax. But I have all of Jadzia's memories. Not to mention Lela's, Tobin's, Emony's, Audrid's, Joran's, Curzon's. Am I forgetting anyone?
Benjamin Sisko: Torias.
Ezri Dax: Right. You are probably asking yourself, who is this person? How did she get the symbiont? Do I want another Dax in my life? Does she always talk this much? These are very good questions. And I wish I had good answers for you.

Elim Garak: I don't need someone to walk in here and hold my hand. I want someone to help me get back to work and you, my dear, are not up to this task. Well, look at you; you're pathetic. A confused child trying to live up to a legacy left by her predecessors. You're not worthy of the name Dax. I knew Jadzia. She was vital, alive. She owned herself, and you, you don't even know who you are. How dare you presume to help me? You can't even help yourself. Now get out of here, before I say something unkind.

Julian Bashir: What did you infuse it with?
Miles O'Brien: Scotch.

[Odo declares that Worf has struck out]
Worf: WHAT?! What are you talking about?! That ball was at least half a metre out! How could you call it a strike?! REVERSE THE CALL, REVERSE THE CALL!
Benjamin Sisko: [rushes over] Are you blind?! That was low and outside!
Worf: The ball was clearly outside!
Benjamin Sisko: What the hell were you looking at?! You can't tell me that ball was over the plate! What were you doing, REGENERATING?!
Odo: [calmly] Caught the outside corner.
[Worf and Sisko continue to protest over each other]
Worf: THE OUTSIDE CORNER?! THE CORNER OF THE DUGOUT, PERHAPS! MAYBE THE CORNER OF THE STADIUM! BUT NOT THE CORNER OF THE PLATE!
Benjamin Sisko: THE CORNER, MY FOOT! THAT WAS A BALL, AND YOU KNOW IT! WE SHOULD HAVE TWO MEN ON! TWO MEN ON! TWO MEN ON!
Odo: Gentlemen, you are trying my patience.
Benjamin Sisko: You stole the run from us! You stole it, just as if you reached up and tore it off the score board!
[Begins poking Odo in the chest]
Benjamin Sisko: You stole it from us!
Odo: You. YOU'RE OUTTA HERE!
Benjamin Sisko: What?!

Julian Bashir: Sarina. Talk to me… please. I know you can. What’s wrong? Is it me? If it is, don’t be afraid. I’m going to do whatever it takes to make it right… because I love you. I want us to be together. Tell me. Do you love me?

Bashir: How could I have been so blind? What was I thinking, trying to move things along so fast? She needed time. I didn’t give it to her. I came this close to driving her back inside herself. I’m supposed to be a doctor. I’m supposed to put my patient’s needs above my own.
Miles O’Brien: You didn’t want to be lonely anymore. Nobody does.

Kira Nerys: [to Odo] I know to Starfleet the Prophets are nothing more than wormhole aliens, but to me, they're gods. I can't prove it. Then, again, I don't have to because my faith in them is enough just as Weyoun's faith in you was enough for him.

TV Show: Star Trek - Deep Space Nine
Odo: Has it ever occurred to you that the reason you believe the Founders are gods is because that's what they want you to believe? That they built it into your genetic code?
Weyoun: Of course they did, that's what gods do. After all, why be a god if there's no one to worship you?

TV Show: Star Trek - Deep Space Nine
Odo: You still haven't answered my question. Why did you decide to defect?
Weyoun: I realize my place is with you.
Odo: You can do better than that.
Weyoun: Then let's just say I left Cardassia because my life was in danger.
Odo: From whom?
Weyoun: Everyone.
Odo: Aren't you being a little paranoid?
Weyoun: Of course I'm paranoid, everyone's trying to kill me.

Miles O'Brien: How could he do this to me? How could he leave me adrift, mid-river, without a paddle?
Rom: What river would that be?
Miles O'Brien: You know, the Great Material Continuum.
Rom: That river. It can be very treacherous.
Miles O'Brien: Tell me about it. Well, I suppose the good news is with Nog gone, nothing else can go missing.

Weyoun: "We become the ice". Only a god could think of such a thing.
Odo: Well, let's just hope the Jem'Hadar give up their search before we freeze to death.

Odo: Perhaps. But in an hour, you may want to trade in that faith for a thermal blanket.

Kor: Help me, Worf. Help me end my life as I've lived it - as a warrior.

TV Show: Star Trek - Deep Space Nine
Kor: Savor the fruit of life, my young friends. The taste is sweet at first, but it turns bitter after a time.

TV Show: Star Trek - Deep Space Nine
Martok: [on Kor] I've hated his name for almost thirty years. I've dreamed of the day when I would see him stripped of his rank and privilege, left without honor or a friend, or the power of his birthright. And I've had that moment now... and I took no joy from it.

TV Show: Star Trek - Deep Space Nine
Kor: (as Worf is departing to lead a suicide mission) I came to wish you well. I look forward to seeing you at the gates to Stokavor.
Worf: As do I.
Kor: Do you have any message you would like me to convey to Jadzia?
[He presses a hypospray to Worf's neck, knocking him unconscious.]
Kor: When I reach the halls of the hallowed dead, I will find your beloved, and remind her that her husband is a noble warrior, and that he still loves no one but her. Goodbye, my friend. Live well.

Kor: (as he is beamed away) Long live the Empire!

[Nog has chosen Vic Fontaine's holoprogram as his Rehab]
Ezri Dax: At first, it struck me as a little... peculiar. But after I thought it over, I began to think that maybe this is a good sign after all.
Quark: How can hiding in one of Julian's adolescent programs be a good sign?
Julian Bashir: Hey...
Jake Sisko: It could be worse. He could be hiding in the Alamo program.
Leeta: Or that ridiculous secret agent program.
Julian Bashir: Hey.
Rom: Or that stupid Viking program.
Julian Bashir: HEY!
