Stephen shrugged. ‘No. But you are quite mistaken, you know. I can assure you, speaking in all sober earnest, that he has no notion of it. He is not very sharp in some ways; and in his simple view of the world, paederasts are dangerous only to powder-monkeys and choir-boys, or to those epicene creatures that are to be found in Mediterranean brothels. I made a circuitous attempt at enlightening him a little, but he looked very knowing and said, “Don’t tell me about rears and vices; I have been in the Navy all my life.” ‘
‘Then surely he must be wanting a little in penetration?’
‘James, I trust there was no mens rea in that remark?’

Ezri Dax: I haven’t talked to my mother in almost six months.

Benjamin Sisko: Oh.

Ezri Dax: Last time I saw her was just after I was joined. She came to visit me on Trill and… I was still a little confused. When she walked into my room, I put on a big smile, looked her right in the eye and said “Hi mom, it’s me – Curzon!” Things kinda went downhill from there.

He led a party of warlocks into the marquee as Luna rushed up.
“Hello, Harry!” she said.
“Er — my name’s Barny,” said Harry, flummoxed.
“Oh, have you changed that too?” she asked brightly.
“How did you know —?”
“Oh, just your expression,” she said.
Like her father, Luna was wearing bright yellow robes, which she had accessories with a large sunflower in her hair. Once you got over the brightness of it all, the general effect was quite pleasant. At least there were no radishes dangling from her ears.

Willow:  It’s too bad we can’t sneak a look at the Watcher diaries and read up on Angel. I’m sure it’s full of fun facts to know and tell.

Buffy:  Yeah. It’s too bad. That stuff is private.

Willow:  Also Giles keeps them in his office. In his personal files.

Buffy:  Most importantly, it would be wrong.

‘Patriotism will not do?’
‘My dear creature, I have done with all debate. But you know as well as I, patriotism is a word; and one that generally comes to mean either my country, right or wrong, which is infamous, or my country is always right, which is imbecile.’

Odo: By the way, your gagh has arrived.

Ezri Dax: My what…? Oh, no.

Odo: Oh, yes. And it’s waiting for you in cargo bay 2.

Kira Nerys: Your gagh?

Ezri Dax: Jadzia ordered it. She was planning a party for Martok’s birthday next week.

Kira Nerys: How much gagh did she order?

Odo: Fifty-one cases.

Ezri Dax: Each containing a different variety.

Kira Nerys: There are varieties of gagh?

Ezri Dax: Oh, yes. I can remember what each one tastes like. And the way they feel when you… swallow them. Torgud gagh wiggles. Filden gagh squirms. Meshta gagh jumps… …Bithool gagh has feet. Flush it out the airlock. All of it.

Odo: Environmental regulations.

Kira Nerys: Well, why don’t you just give it to Martok?

Ezri Dax: He’d insist on sharing it with me, as a point of honor. Wistan gagh is packed in Targ blood… I have to go now.

“All the same, we should get to bed,” whispered Hermione. “It wouldn’t do to oversleep tomorrow.”
“No,” agreed Ron. “A brutal triple murder by the bridegroom’s mother might put a bit of a damper on the wedding.”

Buffy:  I think I just violated the guy code big time.

Willow:  Poor Xander. Boys are so fragile.

‘She is remarkably dry,’ he said to Stephen who, preferring to die in the open, had crept up on deck, had been made fast to a stanchion and who now stood, mute, sodden and appalled, behind him.
‘Eh?’
‘She – is – remarkably – dry.’
Stephen frowned impatiently: this was no time for trifling.

Ezri Dax: At first, it struck me as a little… peculiar. But after I thought it over, I began to think that this might be a good sign after all.

Quark: How can hiding in one of Julian’s adolescent programs be a good sign?

Julian Bashir: Hey…

Jake Sisko: It could be worse. He could be hiding in the Alamo program.

Leeta: Or that ridiculous secret agent program.

Julian Bashir: Hey…

Rom: Or that stupid Viking program!

Julian Bashir: HEY!
