Quotes[]
- Kira Nerys: You Klaestrons are allies of the Cardassians; your knowledge of the station confirms that. They must have given you the layouts, which not only compromises Bajoran security but also... annoys us.
....
- Benjamin Sisko: I want you to find all the medical evidence you can to support the theory that Jadzia Dax and Curzon Dax are two entirely separate people. Major...
- Julian Bashir: Excuse me, sir, I-I don't know that there is any medical evidence on that.
- Benjamin Sisko: Assume there is, then find it.
....
- Kira Nerys: Is a Trill responsible for the conduct - for the acts - of its antecedent selves?
- Benjamin Sisko: Right, that kind of thing.
- Kira Nerys: What if I find the answer is yes?
- Benjamin Sisko: Then that answer is wrong. From this minute on, our answer is 'no'.
....
- Odo: This case has thirty years of dust covering it. The extradition hearing will take about thirty minutes.
- Benjamin Sisko: I was hoping to make it a little longer than that.
- Odo: Good luck.
....
- Kira Nerys: What was exactly your relationship with Curzon Dax?
- Benjamin Sisko: He took a raw young ensign under his wing, and taught me to appreciate life in ways I'd never thought about before. He taught me about art, and science, and diplomacy. Whatever sense of honor I might have today, he nurtured. Treason, murder - he was not capable of those things.
