Quotes
-
Major Kira : Look - you've said yourself, every new life for a Trill has to be a new life. If not, you'd wind up paying off old debts forever. These Klingons can't possibly expect you to keep this oath.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : No, they don't. That's just it. They say I have no obligation to them. But I do. I know it, I feel it. If not to them, I owe it to Curzon.
-
Kang : I cannot dishonor myself by allowing you to die in Curzon's place.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : Who's talking about dying? I have no intention of dying. You dishonor yourself already, Kang, by placing your honor above mine. No Klingon warrior would leave a comrade behind while he goes off to battle! Perhaps you're right - Klingon honor isn't what it used to be.
Kang : Are you trying to anger me again? You think the same trick would work twice?
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : I understand Klingons.
Kang : All right then - it worked. Come and fight with us. Come and be damned!
-
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : [distracting a guard] Excuse me. Could you tell me where the tennis courts are? I seem to be lost.
[knocks him down]
-
Kang : If we cannot reach the Albino, we can at least die an honorable death trying to reach him - a death a Klingon Dahar Master deserves.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : You know what, Kang? I think you Klingons embrace death too easily. You treat death like a lover. I think living is a lot more attractive.

[a slightly drunk Kor sits at the bar, with a young woman on each arm and a mug in front of him]
Kor : [laughing] I need another arm! Or am I doomed to choose between perfection and palate?
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : Let me spare you that decision.
[she lifts his mug to his lips]
-
Kang : We will overwhelm them, to glorious victory!
Koloth : Or a glorious death!
Kor : It is a good day to die.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : It is a good day to die.
-
[last lines]
Kang : Where is Koloth?
Kor : He is dead.
Kang : [breathes heavily] I was right, Dax. It is a good day to die...
[dies]
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : [whispers] It's never a good day to lose a friend.
[Kor intones a Klingon funeral dirge in honor of his fallen comrades]
-
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : The Korvat colony. First day of negotiations, I walked out on you - right in the middle of that long-winded speech of yours. You should have seen the look on your face. Nobody had ever had the kajunpak't to show their back to the great Kang before Curzon did.
Kang : I almost killed Curzon that day.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : I knew, I had to get you very, very angry, or my mission wouldn't succeed. Getting you angry with me was the only way to begin to create a bond between us.
Kang : Curzon understood Klingons.
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : And he also understood what he was doing when he took a Klingon blood oath.
-
[Dax and he Klingons are preparing to storm the Albino's compound]
Kang : It will be midday in about an hour. Can you create the diversion in the armory by then?
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : I think so.
Kang : We will be in position at the powerhouse. May Kahless guide us on this day of vengeance!
-
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : [to Kang] I'm Dax, godfather of your son.
Koloth : You are no one's godfather!
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : I am Dax, godfather of your son.
Kang : So - you are the same Dax who took a blood oath with us, to seek vengeance?
Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : Don't mistake a new face for a new soul, Kang.
-
Lieutenant Dax : I don't have to tell you what this oath meant to Curzon.
Commander Sisko : Jadzia Dax took an oath too, when she joined Starfleet. You're subject to orders, Lieutenant.
Lieutenant Dax : Don't do it, Benjamin, don't make me disobey a direct order!
