S1 E7Q-Less

They weren't exactly thrilled to see you on Brax, either. What do they call you there? "The God of Lies"?

They meant it affectionately.

Do I know you?

O'Brien, from the Enterprise.

Enterprise, ah yes! Weren't you one of the little people?

An abysmal place, Earth. A thousand years ago, it had character—Crusades, Spanish Inquisition, Watergate—now, it's just incredibly dull.

S1 E8Dax

MAMadame Arbiter

[referring to the extradition hearing proceedings] I intend to be here until supper, not senility.

S1 E9The Passenger

I have my eye on you, Quark.

[Jadzia Dax walks by] And I have my eye on you, Jadzia.

S1 E14The Storyteller

The 9th Rule of Acquisition clearly states, "Opportunity plus instinct equals profit."

When I was very small, I remember there was this tree right outside my window. It was the ugliest, most gnarled and battered old tree I'd ever seen. Even the birds stayed away from it.

MMullibok

But you loved it.

I hated it, because it had grown so huge, its branches blocked out the sun for kelipates, and its roots buried themselves so deep in the soil nothing else could grow there. It was a big, selfish, annoying—

MMullibok

Nasty.

Nasty! Nasty old tree.

MMullibok

Sounds to me like it had a lot of character.

[after a pause] A lot.

S1 E16If Wishes Were Horses

Ladies and gentlemen and all androgynous creatures, please stop using your imaginations!
