"To all members of the Maquis Resistance: This is Captain Sisko of the USS Defiant. In response to the Maquis's use of biogenic weapons in their recent attacks, I am about to take the following action: in exactly one hour, I will detonate two quantam torpedos that will scatter trilithium resin into the atmosphere of Solosis III. I will thereby make the planet uninhabitable to all human life for the next 50 years. I suggest evacuation plans begin immediately."

–Benjamin Sisko, Deep Space Nine

L'Rell: T'Kuvma sought to strengthen and unify the Great Houses. If he has succeeded in only this, it is cause for celebration.

Cornwell: Your 'Great Houses' are carving up Federation assets among their factions. A captured Starbase bears the insignia of House D'Gor, not of the Klingon Empire. Is that the kind of unity your 'messiah' proclaimed? They think nothing of the collateral damage caused by their brutal attacks. They target civilians, hospitals, food convoys. They slaughter innocents, and inspire terror across the quadrant.

L'Rell: This is war. Not a child's game with rules. We fight to preserve Klingon identity.

Cornwell: No one is looking to destroy your culture! Our laws are founded in equality! Freedom!

L'Rell: T'Kuvma taught us that the Federation cannot help itself. It seeks universal homogenization and assimilation.

Cornwell: T'Kuvma... was an ignorant fool. And your people are moving closer and closer to my home planet. What are you looking for? More territory? Conditional surrender? Your people won't even make demands, why? How does this war end?

L'Rell: It doesn't. The Klingons have tasted your blood. Conquer us. Or we will never relent.

@Hickory Yeah, she was definitely right about that.

"Had I been firstborn, the people of Khemri would have served me gladly, and the city would have prospered. If you would blame anyone, blame those damned gods you so adore. It was they who made me no more than a second son. It was their will who ultimately sealed you inside that tomb."

"You don't need a letter giving our latest doings. What you need is a quart of iodine in your thyroid gland." ~Dale Carnegie, How To Win Friends and Influence People

(Keep in mind this was as a response to a bad example, not a recommendation. I just find it hilarious how blunt he was.)

"I wonder if the stories of Salyavin were exaggerated?"
"More than likely. The Time Lords over-react to everything. Look at the way they treat me. I expect at some time in the future, about two hundred years time, someone will meet me and say, is that really the Doctor? He seemed such a nice old man."
~ Romana and the Doctor, Doctor Who: Shada

"Have you ever seen the aftermath of a suicide bombing? I have. June 29th, 2003. I was meeting two associates at the Marouche restaurant in Tel Aviv. As my car was pulling up, a 20-year-old Palestinian named Ghazi Safar entered the restaurant and detonated a vest wired with C-4. The shock wave knocked me flat, blew out my eardrums. I couldn't hear. The smoke... It was like being under water. I went inside. A nightmare. Blood, parts of people. You could tell where Safar was standing when the vest blew. It was like a perfect circle of death. There was almost nothing left of the people closest to him. Seventeen dead, 46 injured. Blown to pieces. The closer they were to the bomber, the more horrific the effect. That's every suicide. Every single one. An act of terror perpetrated against everyone who's ever known you. Everyone who's ever loved you. The people closest to you, the ones who cherish you are the ones who suffer the most pain, the most damage. Why would you do that? Why would you do that to people who love you?"
-Raymond Reddington, The Blacklist

"Really there are only two types of weather: hoodie weather and weather where you wear a hoodie anyway."
