MINOR VOYAGER CREW/LCARS

 

A most logical use of violence, to punish the violent. We both know that I am prepared to die, but are you prepared to kill?
Lon Suder to Tuvok [#32 Meld]

 

If you can't control the violence, the violence controls you. Be prepared to yield your entire being to it, to sacrifice your place in civilised life, for you will no longer be a part of it, and there's no return.
Lon Suder to Tuvok [#32 Meld]

Warning: warp-core breach a lot sooner than you think.
LCARS in Doctor's daydream [#124 Tinker Tenor Doctor Spy]

'Own the day.'
Ensign Lindsay Ballard's motto [#138 Ashes to Ashes]

 

Which is why I don't like space exploration. Stumbling from star to star like a drunken insect reeling toward a light source is not my idea of a dignified existence.
Mortimer Harran to Janeway [#140 Good Shepherd]

 

You don't feel responsible, Captain, for having three misfits aboard your ship? Well, if there's anything I can do to relieve your guilt, please let me know.
Mortimer Harran to Janeway [#140 Good Shepherd]

There isn't another post on Voyager, not for me, unless you need a waitress in the messhall.
Tal Celes to Janeway [#140 Good Shepherd]

 

This has nothing to do with attitude, Captain. You and I are wired differently. To you this is nothing but data. To me it, it's a monster with, with fangs and claws. In my nightmares I am chased by algorithms.
Tal Celes to Janeway [#140 Good Shepherd]

ALIENS / HOLOGRAMS / HUMAN NON-VOYAGER CREW

 

Stories can be whimsical or frightening or melancholy or many other things. But noble stories are the ones that can most affect our lives.
Eudana, a Sikarian, to Kim [#10 Prime Factors]

picture from the episode

 

Something so enormous as Science will not stop for something as small as Man, Mr Neelix.
Ma'Bor Jetrel to Neelix [#15 Jetrel]

 

It's good to know how the world works. It is not possible to be a scientist unless you believe that all the knowledge of the universe and all the power that it bestows, is of intrinsic value to everyone. And one must share that knowledge and allow it to be applied, and then be willing to live with the consequences.
Ma'Bor Jetrel to Neelix [#15 Jetrel]

 

You may not think you're at war with us, Federation Commander Chakotay, but everything you are is a threat to us. The Kazon fought long and hard for their independence from uniforms like yours.
Jal Razik to Chakotay [#21 Initiations]

 

So your technology is not always an ally. Sometimes it betrays you.
Jal Razik to Voyager away team [#21 Initiations]

 

Because there are worse things than being killed by your enemy.
Kar to Chakotay [#21 Initiations]

 

I am not your 'son', Federation. I am your executioner!
Kar to Chakotay [#21 Initiations]

 

The past is a part of you, no matter how hard you try to reject it.
Kolopak to young Chakotay [#25 Tattoo]

 

Focus on the goal, not the task.
Tanis to Kes [#26 Cold Fire]

 

What your eyes show you is only the surface of reality. Look deeper.
Tanis to Kes [#26 Cold Fire]

 

I thought all these months answering to Janeway would have made you soft, but all you needed was a little slap in the face to get that Maquis heart of yours beating again.
Seska to Chakotay [#27 Maneuvers]

 

Prototype 0001 is ready to accept programming.
prototype automated personnel unit to Torres [#29 Prototype]

As the Q have evolved, we've sacrificed many things along the way, not just manners, but mortality, a sense of purpose, a desire for change, and a capacity to grow. Each loss is a new vulnerability, wouldn't you say?
Q later called Quinn to Tuvok [#34 Death Wish]

 

Facial art. How very wilderness of you.
Q to Chakotay [#34 Death Wish]

picture from the episode

 

Will you send him to prison for eternity or will you assist with his suicide plan? That's a toughie, but then that's why they made you captain, isn't it, to handle the tough ones?
Q to Janeway [#34 Death Wish]

 

Sometimes I think my people spend so much time trying to save lives they don't know how to live any more.
Danara Pel to the Doctor [#35 Lifesigns]

picture from the episode

 

May this day find you at peace and leave you with hope.
Alcia to Janeway; traditional Drayan blessing from their ancient scrolls [#38 Innocence]
Q to Janeway [#34 Death Wish]

 

Mathematics - I can see why you enjoyed it. Solve a problem, get an answer. The answer's either right or wrong. It's very absolute.
guide to Janeway [#49 Sacred Ground]

picture from the episode

 

If you can explain everything, what's left to believe in?
waiting man to Janeway [#49 Sacred Ground]

 

Think of it, Kathy: our child will be like a precious stone tossed into the cosmic lake, sending endless ripples of human conscience and compassion to wash up on every distant shore of the universe.
Q to Janeway [#53 The Q and the Grey]

 

Sometimes radical problems require radical solutions.
Riley Frazier to Chakotay [#59 Unity]

 

We're creating a society here: one that's based on tolerance, shared responsibility, and mutual respect that people like you and I were raised to believe in. We're not about to give it up just because it's difficult.
Riley Frazier to Chakotay [#59 Unity]

 

Did your eyes see the planet of our origin, the true home of our race? Was it beautiful? Was it covered by oceans, sand? Were there nine moons above your head, or were there none?
Prof. Gegen to Hogan's skull [#65 Distant Origin]

picture from the episode

 

Forgive me, but from my prospective, you live in luxury. You don't suffer from debilitating diseases, you have many sources of energy, replicators, your crew is very well fed.
Lumas, of the Caatati [#71 Day of Honor]

 

You can't begin to imagine the burden of memory that I carry, thousands of worlds, billions of lives, gone, brought back, gone again.
Annorax to Chakotay [#76 and #77 Year of Hell]

 

Your brig: it's a puzzling concept - shutting someone away as punishment. Do you find that it rehabilitates the prisoner?
Nimira to Tuvok [#78 Random Thoughts]

 

Ah, what the old philosophers say is true: 'Monstrous and wonderful are the people of undiscovered lands.'
Leonardo da Vinci hologram to Janeway [#79 Concerning Flight]

picture from the episode

 

Here I am free to do what I wish - free from judgement, free to fail, without a sense of shame, without the taunts of the ignorant.
Leonardo da Vinci hologram [#79 Concerning Flight]

 

I'm a Doctor, not a commando.
EMH Mark 2 to the Doctor [#82 Message in a Bottle]

 

Your people have faced extinction many times. But you've always managed to avoid it. You seem to recognise the need for change.
Alpha Hirogen to Janeway [#86 and #87 The Killing Game]

 

The Borg Collective is like a force of nature. You don't feel anger toward a storm on the horizon. You just avoid it.
Arturis to Janeway and Seven [#94 Hope and Fear]

 

Did it ever occur to you that there were those of us in the Delta Quadrant with a vested interest in that war? Victory would have meant annihilation of the Borg, but you couldn't see beyond the bow of your own ship!
Arturis [#94 Hope and Fear]

 

Citizens of Earth. Your destiny is in my hands. Those of you who acquiesce to my demands you will be treated fairly. Oppose me and you face a dire fate indeed as my slaves in the Mines of Mercury.
Dr Chaotica holocharacter broadcasting to Earth [#95 Night]

 

Humans beings, they're quite a paradox. At first glance they're so primitive: genetic impurities, no telepathy, violent, and yet they've created so many beautiful ways to convey their ideas - literature, art, music.
Species 8472 disguised as a human called Valerie Archer, to Chakotay [#98 In the Flesh]

 

I've had a chance to see through human eyes and I'm beginning to wonder. Are they really so violent?
Species 8472 disguised as a human called Valerie Archer, to her superior (Species 8472 disguised as the human called Boothby) [#98 In the Flesh]

picture from the episode

 

Humans, you've got a flair for the dramatic, I'll give you that.
Species 8472 disguised as the human called Boothby [#98 In the Flesh]

picture from the episode

 

Trust has to be earned. It's gradual. And yet it's the foundation of every relationship, professional and personal. It's also a concept alien to the telepathic races. Why take someone at their word when you can simply read their mind?
Kashyk to Janeway [#104 Counterpoint]

 

There is so much more I want to show you. My throne, for example.
Dr Chaotica holocharacter to Queen Arachnia/Janeway [#106 Bride of Chaotica!]

picture from the episode

 

All of your emotions, - grief, guilt, remorse, compassion - will be irrelevant once humanity is assimilated.
Borg Queen to Seven [#109 and #110 Dark Frontier]

picture from the episode

 

Lt Thomas Eugene Paris, Lt B'Elanna Torres, with the power vested in me by Starfleet Command and the United Federation of Planets, I now pronounce you husband and wife.
duplicate Janeway to duplicate Paris and duplicate Torres [#112 Course: Oblivion]

 

When it comes to affairs of the human heart, it is wise to look beyond logic.
duplicate Tuvok to duplicate Seven and duplicate Doctor [#112 Course: Oblivion]

 

It's easy to cling to principles when you're standing on a vessel with its bulkheads intact manned by a crew that's not starving.
Capt. Ransom to Janeway [#120 and #121 Equinox]

 

Who needs arms when you have wings. You're becoming a part of me now. Our potential is unlimited. Forget the old Tom Paris. He doesn't exist any more.
Alice the ship to Paris [#125 Alice]

 

Every year a victim would be sacrificed on it in honour of winter, and then one year nobody remembers exactly when or why, a play took the place instead of the ritual and no one had to die here again. Why can't my play take the place of a war?
Kelis to Torres [#142 Muse]

picture from the episode

 

The land of Vulcan has no laughter and it has no tears. It is a very quiet place, calm, just like Tuvok.
Kelis to actor playing Tuvok [#142 Muse]

 

I came here thinking you were opposites sides of the same coin, identical but different. Now I see you're both exactly the same: you're both jerks!
Deanna Troi to the Doctor and Dr Lewis Zimmerman [#144 Life Line]

 

Do you know how humiliating it is to have 675 Mark 1s out there, scrubbing plasma conduits, all with my face?
Dr Lewis Zimmerman to the Doctor [#144 Life Line]

 

Some advice from a warrior in the bedchamber as well as the battlefield. At times like these you must treat your heart as an enemy, so that you won't be distracted in battle.
Korok, a Klingon, to Seven [#146 and #147 Unimatrix Zero]

 

Welcome to the first running of the Antarian Trans-stellar Rally. This moment marks a hopeful point in our shared history, a chance to put aside all animosity, and come together in a spirit of peace and friendly competition.
Ambassador O'Zaal to rally competitors [#149 Drive]

 

If your racing skills are as sharp as your diplomatic instincts the other teams won't have a chance.
Ambassador O'Zaal to Janeway [#149 Drive]

 

Not everyone is as comfortable mixing with other species as you are, Harry. Some of us believe it was better when we were separate.
Irina to Kim [#149 Drive]

picture from the episode

 

Oh, I believe in co-operation, as long as it benefits me.
Seska to Chakotay [#157 Shattered]

picture from the episode

 

Death is what I deserve. You say I've changed, but I look at these hands every day and I see them squeezing that man's throat and I hear the sounds he made. I'm disgusting.
Iko to Seven [#159 Repentance]

picture from the episode

 

You were never afraid of me, not even when I tried to kill you. It's nice to look in someone's eyes and not see fear.
Iko to Seven [#159 Repentance]

 

The almighty Prime Directive. Take my advice. It's less of a headache if you just ignore it.
Admiral Janeway to her younger self [#171 and #172 Endgame]
