Quotes 

• Doctor Bashir : [treating Kira on the ship]  Apparently the planet is crawling with Bashirs.

  Major Kira : Maybe I'll stay up here.

• Odo : There's something else the other Odo wanted you to know... He was responsible for changing the Defiant's flight plan.

  [long pause] 

  Major Kira : Why?

  Odo : So that you wouldn't have to die.

  Major Kira : I can't believe it. EIGHT THOUSAND PEOPLE!

  Odo : He did it for you, Nerys. He loved you.

  Major Kira : That makes it right?

  Odo : I don't know. He thought so.

• Major Kira : I've always believed that we're all given one destiny - one path. And now we're using technology to get around that... I'm not sure how it makes me feel.

  Odo : I know exactly how it makes me feel. You can't know how much it means to me to know you're going home, Nerys. Now, it won't change anything for me. I lost you two hundred years ago. But for the other Odo up on the ship it changes everything. He doesn't have to lose you. And somehow, knowing that makes me feel better.

• Major Kira : Praying over your own grave... it's got to be a new one.

  Odo : Yeah... If the Prophets were listening they're probably very confused.

• Major Kira : [after revealing that she and Shakaar have split up]  The way I see it, people are either meant to be together, or they're not.

  Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax : I guess I'd rather believe that any relationship can work as long as both people really want it to.

• Major Kira : The path the Prophets laid out for me ends here.
