| Sisko :  | "This entire operation has been a waste of resources, men and equipment. The blame lies with the man who ordered the mission in the first place, not the man who tried to carry it out!"  |   | to Gowron |

| O'Brien :  | "Julian, it's time to face facts. You're not gonna pull a rabbit out of your med kit."  |   | to Bashir |

   | Ezri :  | "I think that the situation with Gowron is a symptom of a bigger problem. The Klingon Empire is dying, and I think it deserves to die."  |  
   | Worf :  | "You're right. I do not like it!"  |  
 
 | 
| Ezri :  | "Worf, you are the most honorable and decent man I have ever met and if you're willing to accept men like Gowron, then what hope is there for the Empire?"  |   | to Worf |  
  | 
| Gowron :  | "You will not have this... day..."  |   | his last words |  
  |

   | Rusot :  | "You're still a Cardassian, Garak. You're not going to kill one of your own people for a Bajoran woman."  |  
   | Garak :  | "How little you understand me."  |  
 
 | 
| Damar :  | "He was my friend. But his Cardassia is dead and it won't be coming back."  |   | after killing Rusot |
