Nice to see you, Old Man.
If the Dominion comes through the
wormhole, the first battle will be fought here. And I intend to be
ready for them.
We are, but you get on my nerves,
and I don't like your hat. Now put the gun down.
You have to realize something,
Major--you're on the other side now. Pretty uncomfortable, isn't it?
No -- it's based on a legend, and
legends are as powerful as any truth.
That's because you haven't had
them prepared properly. Beets are a very misunderstood vegetable.
I wasn't "yelling." I
was just expressing my opinion loudly.
I'm about to put my fist in your opinion.
The trouble is EARTH. On Earth,
there is no poverty, no crime, no war. You look out the window of
Starfleet Headquarters and you see Paradise. Well, it's easy to be a
saint in Paradise.
When did I start thinking of
this... Cardassian monastery... as home?
Where you see the Sword of Stars,
I see a comet; where you see vipers, I see three scientists; and
where you see the Emissary, I see a Starfleet officer.
You know, I never knew how much
this man's voice annoyed me.
And take those phasers off stun,
Chief. No more Mr Nice Guy.
Go over my head again, and I'll
have yours on a platter.
If you're trying to impress me,
you can forget it.
My son, the writer, thinks I
ought to say something profound on this occasion.
In the long run, the only people
who can really handle the Klingons... are the Klingons.
Mr. Garak, I'd like to see you in
the wardroom immediately. Bring your tailor's kit.
So, in other words, you saw which
way the wind was blowing and switched sides.
You came here for advice from a
friend, and that's exactly what you're getting!
There comes a time in every man's
life when he must stop thinking and start acting.
Wait 'til you get a fourth pip on
your collar. You'll wish you had gone into botany.
Brag all you want, but don't
stand between me and the blood wine!
Is that what you want? To be
remembered as the man who helped bring about the worst war in
Federation history?
There are ... things ... I
believe in.
It's gone! I almost had it, and
it's gone!
Q
Picard would never have hit me...
Sisko
I'm not Picard
Kira
Do I get a vote?
Sisko
Of course you do. It just doesn't count.
Sisko
In the old days, operations
officers wore red, command officers wore gold.
Dax
And women wore less.
Bahir
I think I'm going to like history.
It takes courage to look inside
yourself, and even more courage to write it for others to see. I'm
proud of you, son.
You've got a good start on a
novel here, Jake. The dialog is sharp, the story is interesting, the
characters are real... the spelling is terrible.
Jake
Dad, I'm fourteen.
Sisko
I'm glad we agree on something.
Go to bed.
Jake,
trying to get out of his homework
Just because you suffered through
all that doesn't mean I have to!
Sisko
Yes it does.
Too much fun. |
