Quotes 

• Kor : Of course you should come. The splendor of fighting and killing, a blood bath in the course of vengeance, who wouldn't want to come?

• [Quark shuts off the holosuite, and Kor storms out, clutching a bottle] 

  Kor : [drunk]  You dare interrupt the Battle of Klach D'Kel Brakt, you Ferengi k'pekt?

  [while Quark cowers, Odo grabs Kor's hand and gently takes the bottle away] 

  Odo : The battle is over. The people are waiting to celebrate your victory.

  Kor : [brightens]  They are? Lead the way, then!

• Kor : How do we know that he's even inside?

  Lieutenant Jadzia Dax : Good question.

  Koloth : [gets up]  Wait here!

  Kor : Where're you going?

  Koloth : I'm going to find out if he's inside.

  Kor : And how do you intend to do that?

  Koloth : I'll *ask* somebody!

• [Koloth carefully cuts a piece of cake in half] 

  Kor : [laughing]  Look at him. He practices cuts and thrusts even with his food! Little children do that.

  Koloth : A sharp knife is nothing without a sharp eye.

  Kor : [to Dax]  Oh? It's been forty years since even his good eye was sharp. Ah, it's luck when you hit the plate!

• Kor : There is tension on your face, Koloth. You ought to drink more!

• Kor : The only weight I carry now, dear comrade, is... is my own bulbous body. I-I was once, if you remember, far less than you see. And far more than I've become.

• Koloth : [wounded]  I didn't see him coming.

  Kor : Even you cannot have eyes in the back of your head, my friend.

• [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] 

• Kor : Kang thinks to much, Koloth doesn't feel enough.

• 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] 

• [a drunken Kor is passed out in a holding cell] 

  Odo : Sir, if you'll wake up, I'll release you into your friend's custody.

  Kor : [looks up]  K-Koloth? wIj jup, my old friend. Oh, I knew you'd be here.

  Koloth : You disgrace yourself, and our purpose! I do not go into battle with one whose honor is washed away in Breshtanti ale!

  Koloth : [to Odo]  Keep him!

  [storms out]
