Your Favorite One Liners From Garak

[Portal]

I hope this isn't too selfish a request.

I'm in a sardonic mood and I'd like to hear some nuggets of wisdom from everybody's favorite (former?) Cardassian spy.

"The truth is usually just an excuse for a lack of imagination."

 

[Dale Sams]

"How little you know me."

 

[tafkats]

"Especially the lies."

 

[Tosk]

"Never tell the same lie twice."

 

[JirinPanthosa]

"But the mystery is figuring out who is guilty of what."

 

[Nacluv]

Garak's my favorite DS9 character.

"Treason, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder."
"Paranoid is what they call people who imagine threats against their life. I have threats against my life."

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

 

[Portal]

Isn't this delicious. Thank you!

 

[JirinPanthosa]

"No. I used to be a gardener!"

 

[Belz...]

"But I got off several cutting remarks which no doubt did serious damage to their [the Klingons'] egos."

 

[Tulaberry whine]

Bajoran woman: "I was in the underground."
Garak: "Really! Perhaps we have met!"

 

[R. Star]

This one's also good.

GARAK: I've locked him in his quarters. I've also left him with the distinct impression that if he attempts to force open the door, it may... explode.
SISKO: I hope that's just an impression.
GARAK: It's best not to dwell on such minutiae.

 

[Captain Kathryn]

Garak is also my favorite DS9 character. I wish he had been made part of the main cast.

Anywho here are some of my faves.


Ziyal: You're intelligent and cultured...and kind.
Garak: My dear, you're young, so I realize that you're a poor judge of character.


Odo: I think you secretly enjoyed destroying your own shop.
Garak: Well, I admit watching it burn wasn't exactly tragic.


Bashir: Assuming you're not a spy...
Garak: Assuming...
Bashir: ...then maybe you're an outcast.
Garak: Or maybe I'm an outcast spy.
Bashir: How could you be both?
Garak: I never said I was either.


Garak: Well, it's just that... Lately I've noticed everyone seems to trust me. It's quite unnerving, I'm still trying to get used to it. Next thing I know, people are going to be inviting me to their homes for dinner.
O'Brien: Well, if it makes you feel any better, I promise I will never have you over.


Garak: Toran!
Gul Toran: It's Gul Toran now.
Garak: They made you a Gul? I didn't realize the situation on Cardassia had gotten so desperate.


And of course this scene which was already said, but it's my favorite~~~!!!!

Bashir: What I want to know is, out of all the stories you told me which ones were true and which ones weren't?
Garak: My dear doctor...they're all true.
Bashir: Even the lies?
Garak: Especially the lies.
