Quotes 

• Nog : You gonna write a story about all this?

  Jake Sisko : Probably.

  Nog : What are you going to say?

  Jake Sisko : What do you think I should say?

  Nog : That it was a good ship, with a good crew, that made a mistake. We... let ourselves blindly follow Captain Watters, and he led us over a cliff.

  Chief Dorian Collins : That's not true. Captain Watters was a great man.

  Jake Sisko : Dorian, he got everyone killed.

  Chief Dorian Collins : If he failed, it's because we failed him.

  Nog : [to Jake]  Put that in your story too. Let people read it, and decide for themselves.

  [Nog gives Dorian his Red Squad insignia] 

  Nog : He may have been a hero. He may even have been a great man. But in the end, he was a bad captain.

• Chief Dorian Collins : You know, the sun only comes up once a month on the moon. Every lunar morning, my father and I would put on suits and... hike out across the Sea of Clouds. We'd stop at this collection of boulders on the western rim and... just wait for the sun to come up. Dawn is so... shocking on the moon. One minute you're in the darkest night you can imagine. And in the next instant the sun lifts up and this... glorious, pure light just... explodes across the surface... I felt like I met God every morning.
