Julian Bashir quotes from Deep Space Nine

Julian Bashir

You'll be fine. It's just a flesh wound.

That was awfully close. What if you'd killed me?

Julian Bashir

What makes you think I wasn't trying?

[Brightening] Doctor, I believe there's hope for you yet.

Thank you, Mister— Mister—

Julian Bashir

Bashir. Julian Bashir.

Is that your plan?

Julian Bashir

Shut up!

Miles O'Brien

I don't know why Captain Sisko insists on me being here. I'm not a senior officer.

Julian Bashir

Maybe he just wanted to see you in your dress uniform. It does show off your figure.

Julian Bashir

What you have there is a sebaceous cyst.

Miles O'Brien

I know it's a cyst, but it's getting bigger.

Julian Bashir

There's nothing to worry about. Dermatalogically speaking, you're perfectly healthy.

Miles O'Brien

Oh, I'm perfectly healthy, except I've got a disgusting cyst on the back of my neck. Now either I paint a nose, eyes, and mouth on it and pretend I've got two heads, or you take it off.

Julian Bashir

I'll get you some paint.

Miles O'Brien

Julian! Get it off me!

Julian Bashir

Alright, alright. But you know what they say: two heads are better than one.

Miles O'Brien

Julian, I'm waiting!

Julian Bashir

It is sort of a shame to pack this stuff away.

Miles O'Brien

Wish we didn't have to.

Julian Bashir

It's like a sculpture, a monument to your year as a bachelor.

Miles O'Brien

I suppose it is.

Julian Bashir

Who are we to dismantle this piece of art?

Miles O'Brien

I don't know. But if we don't, Keiko will dismantle me.

Julian Bashir

Chief?

Miles O'Brien

Get outta here, Julian.

Julian Bashir

You don't want to do this, Chief.

Miles O'Brien

The hell I don't.

Julian Bashir

Look, I don't claim to know what you're going through, but whatever it is, it's not worth dying for.

Miles O'Brien

You don't understand at all. I'm not doing this for me. I'm doing it to protect Keiko and Molly and everyone else on this station.

Julian Bashir

Protect us from what?

Miles O'Brien

From me. I'm not the man I used to be. I'm dangerous. I nearly hit Molly today. All she wanted was a little attention, and I nearly hit her.

Julian Bashir

But you didn't. You're a good man, Miles Edward O'Brien, and whatever it is you think you've done wrong, you don't deserve to die.

Julian Bashir

I was looking forward to tomorrow—to see Kira again, asking, "How was the nebula? And by the way, I cured that blight thing those people had."

Jadzia Dax

It's not a crime to believe in yourself.

Julian Bashir

These people believed in me, and look where it got them. Trevian was right—there is no cure. The Dominion made sure of that, and I was so arrogant, I thought I could find one in a week!

Jadzia Dax

Maybe it was arrogant to think that. But it's even more arrogant to think that there isn't a cure just because you couldn't find it.

Kira

I just hope I can survive one.

Bashir

You're doing great.

Kira

Oh, I don't feel great.

Bashir

You're... positively glowing!

Kira

Oh, really?

Bashir

I think so. But I suppose my opinion doesn't count.

Kira

Oh, it counts—but don't forget that this is still YOUR fault.

Bashir

MY fault?

Kira

You performed the transfer from Keiko to me.

Bashir

After you volunteered.

Kira

After you put the idea in my head!

Bashir

After you flew the runabout into an asteroid field!

Kira

After you insisted on checking those anomalous bio scans!

Bashir

That was Keiko!!

Kira

That's right, it was! But I'd rather blame you!

Bashir

Whatever makes you happy.

Quark

[to Odo] All I'm saying is if you're going to prosecute me, I demand you prosecute my co-conspirator!

Dr. Julian Bashir

I'm not a conspirator!

Odo

And just what would you call yourself, Doctor?

Bashir

An idiot...

Quark

[under his breath] I'll buy that.

Bashir

[scowls at Quark] For asking for your help in the first place!

Dr. Julian Bashir

(examining an injured Quark) A compound fracture of the right radius, two fractured ribs, torn ligaments, strained tendons, numerous contusions, bruises, and scratches. What have you been doing?

Quark

You mean, (taking Grilka's hand) what have we been doing?

Dr. Julian Bashir

(unsettled) Never mind. I don't need that particular image running around my head. I'll just treat you.

Dr. Julian Bashir

What happened to you two?

Lt. Cmdr. Worf

We, uh...

Jadzia Dax

Well, if you must know—

Dr. Julian Bashir

[becoming flustered] No! I don't need that particular image, either. In fact, I'm going to stop asking that question altogether! People can come in, I will treat them, and that will be all.

Miles O'Brien

Don't take it personally, Worf.

Julian Bashir

I... rather like the way you smell.

O'Brien

Yeah, sort of... earthy, peaty aroma.

Bashir

With a touch of... lilac.

Sisko

In the old days, Operations officers wore red, Command officers wore gold.

Jadzia Dax

And women wore less. [shows off her outfit...which suits her]

Bashir

I think I'm going to like history.

Odo

Mr. Worf.

Worf

They are Klingons. And, it is a long story.

O'Brien

What happened? Genetic engineering?

Bashir

A viral mutation?

Worf

We do not discuss it with outsiders!

You've come a long way from the naive young man I met five years ago. You've become distrustful and suspicious. It suits you.

Julian Bashir

I had a good teacher.
