   | Riker : | "I imagine it must be very difficult for you to work with a crew that is so different. I would be happy to guide you in that regard, if it would be helpful." |  | Kurn : | "No Commander. It wouldn't." |  | Riker : | "This is not a Klingon ship, sir." |  | Kurn : | "No Commander, it is not. If it were a Klingon ship, I would've killed you for offering your suggestion." |  | 
| | Kurn : | "This entire ship seems built on comfort, relaxation, being at ease. It is not the ship of a warrior... not the ship of a Klingon." |  |  | to Worf; a calculated insult. |

   | Kurn : | "How long has the bird been dead? It appears to have been lying in the sun for quite some time." |  | Geordi : | "It's not dead, it's been replicated. You do understand that we cook most of our foods?" |  | Kurn : | "Ah, yes... I was told to prepare for that. I shall try some of your burned replicated bird meat." |  | 
| 
   | Worf : | "I wish to know if I have given you offence." |  | Kurn : | "I am not human. If you had given offence, you would not need to ask." |  | 
| | Worf : | "I am Klingon! If you doubt it, a demonstration can be arranged!" |  |  | to Kurn | 
 | 
| | Worf : | "It is a good day to die, Duras... and the day is not over yet." |  |  | to Duras; the first time this 'Klingon' saying is used | 
 | 
| 
   | Duras : | "This is not your world, human. You do not command here." |  | Picard : | "I'm not here to command." |  | Duras : | "Then you must be ready to fight. Something that Starfleet doesn't teach you." |  | Picard : | "You may test that assumption at your convenience." |  | 
| | Kahlest : | "My life ended on Khitomer. I served a proud family, a strong house. All that is gone." |  |  | to Picard | 
 | 
|  | 
| | Picard : | "You admit the truth and yet expect him to accept punishment? What does this say of an Empire who holds honour so dear?!" |  |  | to K'mpec | 
 | 
| | K'mpec : | "The Empire will not be destroyed for one family's honour!" |  |  | to Picard | 
 | 
| 
   | K'mpec : | "This is not the Federation, Picard. If you defy an order of the High Council, the alliance with the Federation could fall to dust." |  | Picard : | "The alliance with the Federation is not based on lies, K'mpec! Protect your secrets if you must, but you will not sacrifice these men!" |  |
