Paris: "I'm already doing a job...for the Federation."
   
Stadi: "Do you always fly at women at warp speed, Mr. Paris?"
Paris: "Only when they're in visual range."
   
Quark: "I do carry a select line of unique artefacts and gemstones indigenous to this region. Why, quite recently, I acquired these Lobi crystals from a very strange creature called a Morn."
Kim: "We were warned about the Ferengi at the Academy."
   
Kim: "What was that all about?"
Paris: "It's a long story Harry, and I'm tired of telling it. I'm sure someone around here will tell you before long."
   
Janeway: "Mister Kim, at ease before you sprain something."
   
Paris: "Frankly, I think it was tougher on my father than it was on me. Look, I know those guys told you to stay away from me. And you know what? You ought to listen to 'em. I'm not exactly a good luck charm."
Kim: "I don't need anyone to choose my friends for me."
   
Kim: "Captain, if these sensors are working, we're over seventy thousand light years from where we were."
   
Doctor: "Please state the nature of the medical emergency."
   
Janeway: "You're speaking to a member of my crew. I expect you to treat him with the same respect as you would have me treat a member of yours."
   
Caretaker: "Oh, well, now. Aren't you contentious for a minor bipedal species?"
Janeway: "This minor bipedal species doesn't take kindly to being abducted."
   
Tuvok: "That would not be an accurate perception, Captain. Vulcans do not worry."
   
Janeway: "Captain Kathryn Janeway of the Federation starship Voyager."
Neelix: "A very impressive title. I have no idea what it means, but it sounds very impressive."
   
Tuvok: "I suggest we proceed to your quarters. Perhaps you would care for a bath."
   
Torres: "We weren't sick until we met your caretaker."
   
Neelix: "I must admit, I haven't had access to a food rebel er, er, er, replicator before."
Tuvok: "I'd never have guessed."
   
Jabin: "Ocampa? She is Ocampa. Why would you be interested in such worthless creatures? They live only nine years. They make worthless servants."
   
Doctor: "That's enough. This is a sickbay, not a conference room. Visiting hours are over. Everyone except my patient is to leave immediately."
Janeway: "Computer, end Medical Holographic Program."
   
Paris: "Yeah? But on the other hand, if I save your butt your life belongs to me. Isn't that some kind of Indian custom?"
Chakotay: "Wrong tribe."
   
Paris: "Isn't there some Indian trick where you can turn yourself into a bird and fly us out of here?"
   
Torres: "Who is she to be making decisions for all of us?"
Chakotay: "She's the captain."
   
Janeway: "We're alone in an uncharted part of the galaxy. We've already made some friends here and some enemies. We have no idea of the dangers we're going to face, but one thing is clear. Both crews are going to have to work together if we're to survive. That's why Commander Chakotay and I have agreed that this should be one crew. A Starfleet crew. And as the only Starfleet vessel assigned to the Delta Quadrant, we'll continue to follow our directive to seek out new worlds and explore space. But our primary goal is clear. Even at maximum speeds, it would take seventy five years to reach the Federation, but I'm not willing to settle for that. There's another entity like the Caretaker out there somewhere who has the ability to get us there a lot faster. We'll be looking for her, and we'll be looking for wormholes, spatial rifts, or new technologies to help us. Somewhere along this journey, we'll find a way back. Mister Paris, set a course - for home."
