Most Awesome DS9 Quotes

[MrBorg]

Post the most awesome DS9 quotes, from any episode (Excluding the novels)!

One of my favorites:

Marritza (Duet):

Well, there you are. My secret's out, my crimes laid bare... I await execution. *holds napkin over face*

I always lol at that.

From 'In the Hands of the Prophets'

Bajoran Jumja Merchant, "Seek the Prophets!"
Constable Odo, "Huh! Seek them yourself!"

 

[SchwEnt]

"If you have something to say then SAY it!!!"

 

[Chang]

"It's a faaake!"

 

[MrBorg]

"It's a faaake!"

Can't believe I forgot about that. XD

One of my favorites is from The Emmisary.

Benjamin Sisko: That may be the most important thing to understand about humans. It is the unknown that defines our existence. We are constantly searching, not just for answers to our questions, but for new questions. We are explorers. We explore our lives day by day, and we explore the galaxy trying to expand the boundaries of our knowledge. And that is why I am here: not to conquer you with weapons or ideas, but to coexist and learn.

 

[TiberiusMaximus]

I like these:

"I cannot defeat this Klingon. I can only kill him - and that no longer interests me."

"They were all true."
"Even the lies?"
"Especially the lies."

"I can't wait to get back to Deep Space Nine and see the look on your face when you realize I never existed!"

 

[Rush Limborg]

From the much-maligned "Profit And Lace":

Nilva: Is it true? That you're...a man?

Lumba: Do I look like a man...?


And, "When it comes to profit--I'm your girl...."



A nice Ezri moment--her what-for to Worf in "Penumbra":

Ezri: DON'T TURN YOUR BACK--TALK TO ME, YOU COWARD!!!

Worf: Do not call me a coward....

Ezri: UGH!!! I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M...STUCK HERE WITH YOU!

Worf: Perhaps you would rather be back on the station with Captain Boday--(takes a hard look at her figure)--you SLI'VAK!!!

(Ezri gasps at this, her eyes blazing in righteous fury at what he just called her....)

I don't remember which episode and I don't know exactly what it was but there was a quote Garak said to Bashier that had something to do with the "boy who cried wolf" story. It was Garak's take on it and it was pretty funny....

Hec, I haven't seen an episode of DS9 in over ten years so I just don't remember what ep...

^Ah:

Garak: What a gruesome tale for children!

Bashir: But the point is...if you lie all the time--nobody's going to believe you--even when you're telling the truth.

Garak: Are you sure that's the point, Doctor?

Bashir: Well, of course? What else could it be?

Garak: That you should never tell the same lie twice.

Bashir:

There ya go! I thought that was a classic....

Thanks

Few things sum up how great a character Garak is better than this:

Odo: You'd shoot a man in the back?
Garak: Well, it's the safest way, isn't it?

 

[Trek Survivor]

The one in my sig! :-)

 

[MrBorg]

This quote is by far one of the best on Deep Space 9.

I know you. I was like you once, but then I opened my eyes. Open your eyes, Captain. Why is the Federation so obsessed with the Maquis? We've never harmed you. And yet we're constantly arrested and charged with terrorism. Starships chase us through the Badlands and our supporters are harassed and ridiculed. Why? Because we've left the Federation, and that's the one thing you can't accept. Nobody leaves paradise. Everyone should want to be in the Federation. Hell, you even want the Cardassians to join. You're only sending them replicators because one day they can take their "rightful place" on the Federation Council. You know In some ways you're even worse than the Borg. At least they tell you about their plans for assimilation. You're more insidious. You assimilate people and they don't even know it.

I found myself strongly agreeing with this.

Worf: I prefer Klingon beliefs.
Kira: I suppose your gods aren't as cryptic as ours?
Worf: Our gods are dead. Ancient Klingon warriors slew them a millennia ago. They were more trouble than they were worth.

("Homefront")

"A Starfleet officer. That's what I am. And that's what I'll always be." - Sisko

("The Way of the Warrior")

"I'm no writer, but if I were, it seems to me I'd want to poke my head up every once in a while and take a look around; see what's going on. It's life, Jake. You can miss it if you don't open your eyes." - Sisko

("The Visitor")

 

[Gil T.Azell]

From Duet
Kira: Why?! He wasn't Darhe'el!
Kainon: He's a Cardassian! That's reason enough!
Kira: No!... it's not

 

[indolover]

Worf: On the first sign of treachery, I will kill him, but I promise to bring the body intact.
Sisko: I assume that's a joke?
Worf: We shall see.

 

[BlueStuff]

Any time Vic Fontaine said "Pally".

 

[spooky spice]

*Sisko punches Q in the face*

"You hit me. Picard never hit me!"
"I am not Picard!"

One of the best O'Brien/Bashir exchanges EVER, from "Extreme Measures":



O'Brien: Huh...should've left a note for Keiko...let her know what we were planning....

Bashir: Ah, why worry her?

O'Brien: No! I wan-wan-want--her and the kids to understand why I had to do this....

Bashir: Ah, she'll understand--she'll know. You did it for me....

O'Brien: Huh! That's what'll upset her the most. She...always said that I--liked you more than I liked her.

Bashir: HA! Tha--tha--tha--that's rediculous!

O'Brien: Right.

Bashir: Well, maybe, maybe...you do, a...a bit more....

O'Brien: What? Are you crazy? She's my wife--I love'er!

Bashir: Of course you love her!

O'Brien: Yeah.

Bashir: She's you're WIFE!

O'Brien: Yeah!

Bashir: I'm just saying...maybe you like me a bit more, that's all.

O'Brien: I do not!

(long pause)

Bashir: You spend more time with me....

O'Brien: We work together.

Bashir: We have more in common!

O'Brien: Julian...you are beginning to annoy me.

Bashir: Darts? Raquetball? Vic's Lounge? The Alamo? Need I go on--?

O'Brien: I loooooooooooove...my wife.

Bashir: (sighs dreamily) And I love Ezri...passionately.

O'Brien: You do?

Bashir: Yes....

O'Brien: Have you told her?

Bashir: No, not yet--but I will.

O'Brien: Oh, yeah? Heh! When?

Bashir: When I'm ready!

(pause)

Bashir: It's just that I...like you...a bit more! See? There, I've admitted it.

O'Brien: (nods, as he finally gets it) Yeah, well...

(long pause)

O'Brien: I love my wife.
