My favourite quote from Voyager is :- “Dismissed! That’s a Starfleet expression for ‘get out…’” Janeway
to Neelix

“Engine efficiency is down another fourteen percent, if we don’t get more power to the warp drive were all going to have to get out and push.”
Tom Paris to
Janeway
VGR / Parallax
“We all have a past. What matters is now.”
Lieutenant Tom
Paris to Seven of Nine

Captain Kathryn
Janeway to Henry Starling
VGR / Future’s
End, Part II

Kes to Danara
VGR / Lifesigns
“It is …a tempting prospect. But when I hold it up against the prospect of seeing the sunrise over the Arizona Desert…or swimming in the Gulf of Mexico on a summer’s day, there’s just no comparison. I want to go home.’
Chakotay to
Janeway, on staying in the Delta Quadrant
VGR / The 37’s
“I’ll complain if I want to. It’s comforting.”
The Doctor to
Seven of Nine
VGR / One

Ensign Harry
Kim to Lieutenant Lasca
VGR / Non
Sequitur

Paris to
Janeway
VGR / Threshold
“Species that don’t change…die.”
Alpha-Hirogen
to Hirogen SS Officer
VGR / The
Killing Game
“If I were captain, I’d open every crack in the universe and peek inside just like Captain Janeway does.”
Kes to Neelix
VGR / The Cloud
“A Nebula…What were we doing in a nebula? No wait, don’t tell me. We were’ investigating’. That’s all we do around here. Why pretend we’re going home at all? All we’re going to do is ‘investigate’ every cubic millimetre of this quadrant, aren’t we?”
The Doctor to
Torres
VGR / The Cloud
“Maybe I kill myself slowly because I don’t have the courage to do it quickly.”
Liddell Ren to
Paris, on smoking
VGR / Ex Post
Facto
“You once told me that you used to treat life like one big game. Rules…players…winners…losers…you never took any of it seriously. Until you lost.”
Kim to
alternate Paris
VGR / Non
Sequitur
“Unfortunately, extinction is often the natural end of evolution…”
Janeway to
Torres
VGR / Prototype

Annorax

Hell, Part II
“I have never understood the practice in some cultures of describing ferocious creatures in an attempt to lull children to sleep.”
Tuvok to Corin
VGR / Innocence
“Well, I’ll admit, I look at the Universe in an entirely different way now. I mean, I can’t go around causing temporal anomalies or subspace inversions without considering the impact it’ll have on my son.”
Q to Janeway,
on fatherhood
VGR / The Q and
the Grey
“You should consider it a high compliment. Throughout history, men have fought over the love of a woman. Why, I can quote you autopsy reports from duels as far back as 1538…”
The Doctor to
Kes, on Neelix and Paris fighting over her
VGR /
Parturition
“Whenever you walk into the room, his respiration increases, his pupils dilate, and the coloration of his ears turns decidedly orange. Until I noticed the pattern, I thought he was suffering from Tanzian flu….”
The Doctor to
Kes, on Paris’s attraction to Kes
VGR /
Parturition
“Of course, the first one is always the hardest to get over.”
Kes to the
Doctor
VGR / Lifesigns
“Every now and then, even years later, something reminds you of her---a certain smell, a few notes of a song---and suddenly you feel just as bad as the day she told you she never wanted to see you again. If you want to know the honest truth, Doc, you never completely get over a woman you really cared about.”
Paris to the
Doctor
VGR / Lifesigns
“I love you. Say
something.”
“You
picked a great time to tell me….”
Torres and
Paris, adrift in space with their oxygen running out

Kim to Paris
VGR / Caretaker
“Harry, Harry, Harry….never ever play with anyone, not even your best friend, if he says, ‘Let’s make it interesting…’”
Paris to Kim
VGR / Meld
“You want to know what I remember. Someone saying, ‘This man is my friend. Nobody touches him.’ I’ll remember that for a long time.”
Paris to Kim,
recalling the way Kim protected him
VGR / The Chute
“Three years ago…I didn’t even know your name. Today …I can’t imagine a day without you.”
Janeway to
Chakotay
VGR / Scorpion,
Part II
“I didn’t tell the truth. I made a mistake---which happens to people---but if I’d admitted that mistake, it would have been a lot better. But I lied about it. And it nearly ruined my life.”
Paris to Neelix
VGR / Fair
Trade
“One voice…can be stronger than a thousand voices.”
Janeway to
Seven of Nine
VGR / The Gift

Janeway to
Paris
VGR / Random
Thoughts
“Who is she to be
making these decisions for all of us?”
“She’s
the captain.”
Torres and
Chakotay, on Janeway
VGR / Caretaker
“In command school, they taught us to always remember that manoeuvring a starship is a very delicate process. But over the years, I’ve learned that sometimes…you just have to punch your way through.”
Janeway to
Paris
VGR / Parallax
“One of the nice things about being captain is that you can keep some things to yourself.”
Janeway to
Chakotay
VGR / Parallax

Janeway to
Seven of Nine
VGR / Hope and
Fear

Janeway to
Neelix
VGR / Fair
trade
“I’m going to die----without a shred of honour. And for the first time in my life, that really bothers me.”
Torres to Paris
VGR / Day of
Honour
“Sometimes fear can be a good thing. Keeps you from taking unnecessary chances. Courage doesn’t mean that you don’t have fear. It means you’ve learned to overcome it.”
Paris to Human
Torres
VGR / Faces
“We often fear what we don’t understand. Our best defence is knowledge.”
Tuvok to Tressa
VGR ? Innocence
“I wish it were as easy to stop hating…as it was to start…”
Chakotay to
Seven of Nine
VGR / The Omega
Directive

closed places. I never have. I don’t know why.”
“Perhaps…you dislike being alone.”
Paris and Seven
of Nine
VGR / One

Janeway to
Tuvok
VGR / Prime
Factors
“..All I’m saying, is that there is room in every good story for a little bit of passion.”
Torres to Paris
on the holoprogram he is attempting to write
VGR / Worse
Case Scenario
“Mister Kim…at ease before you sprain something.”
Janeway to
Harry Kim
VGR / Caretaker
“Sometimes I think B’Elanna goes out of her way to find solutions that ignore Starfleet procedures.”
Janeway to
Chakotay
VGR / Phage
“That’s the way you respond to every situation, isn’t it? If it doesn’t work, hit it. If it’s in your way, knock it down.”
Human Torres to
Klingon Torres
VGR / Faces
“If you ever doubt yourself, just look into her eyes; see the way she looks at you. You’ll never doubt yourself again.”
Paris to Neelix
on Kes
VGR /
Parturition
“I can tell you a
story, an ancient legend among my people. It’s about an angry warrior who lived
his life in conflict with the rest of his tribe. A man who couldn’t find peace,
even with the help of his spirit guide. For years he struggled with his
discontent. The only satisfaction he ever got came when he was in battle. This
made him a hero among his tribe, but the warrior still longed for peace within
himself. One day, he and his war party were captured by a neighbouring tribe led
by a woman warrior. She called on him to join her because her tribe was too
small and weak to defend itself from all its enemies. The woman warrior was
brave, and beautiful. And very wise. The angry warrior swore to himself that he
would stay by her side, doing whatever he could to make her burden lighter. From
that point on, her needs would come first. And in that way, the warrior began to
know the true meaning of peace.”
“Is that
really an ancient legend?”
“No. But that made
it easier to say.”
Chakotay and
Janeway
VGR / Resolutions
“You’re afraid
that your big, scary Klingon side might have been showing. Well, I saw it up
close…and you know, it wasn’t so terrible. In fact, I wouldn’t mind seeing it
again someday.”
“Careful
what you wish for Lieutenant.”
Paris and
Torres

Paris to Torres
VGR / Day of

The Doctor to

I should tell you I’ve never actually landed a starship before.”
“That’s
all right, Lieutenant. Neither have I.”
Paris and
Janeway
VGR / The 37’s
“Mister Kim…we’re Starfleet officers. ‘Weird’ is part of the job.”
Janeway to Kim
VGR / Deadlock
“What will we need
to pass as locals in this era?”

Nice clothes, fast car…and lots of money.”

Paris to Tuvok
VGR / Future’s
End, Part II
“I know that
you’re probably asking yourself: ‘Why would a brilliant, handsome, dashingly
omnipotent being like Q want to mate with a scrawny little bipedal specimen like
me?”
“Let me
guess: no one else in the universe will have you.”
Q and Janeway
VGR / The Q and
