Citazioni

Tuvok: Perhaps she's experiencing some sort of aftereffect.
Dottore: A reasonable diagnosis... for a security officer. [T:06:04]

Dottore: It may still be active, Mr. Tuvok. You might want to throw one of your little forcefields around the chamber.
Tuvok: A prudent security measure... for a doctor. [T:09:01]

Kim: So what's it like out there in Galactic Cluster Three?
Sette di Nove: It's beyond your comprehension.
Kim: Try me.
Sette di Nove: Galactic Cluster Three is a transmaterial energy plane intersecting 22 billion omnicordial life forms.
Kim: Oh, interesting. [T:21:28]

Janeway: I've got an Ocampan who wants to be something more, and a Borg who's afraid of becoming less. Here's to Vulcan stability. [T:24:21]

Sette di Nove: You have imprisoned us in the name of humanity... yet you will not grant us your most cherished human right. To choose our own fate. You are hypocrital... manipulative. We do not want to be what you are. [T:26:37]

Janeway: You lost the capacity to make rational choice the moment you were assimilated. They took that from you. And until I'm convinced you've gotten it back... I'm making the choice for you. You're staying here.
Sette di Nove: Then you are no different than the Borg. [T:27:01]

Sette di Nove: My designation is Seven of Nine, but the others are gone. Designations are no longer relevant. I am... one. [T:32:53]

Janeway: You've lived most of your life here. Voyager has been your home, and you've been a vital part of this family. Oh, I'm going to miss you.
Kes: Now all I have to do is tell the doctor. He's not going to be happy. [T:38:24]

Kes: My gift to you. [T:41:24]

Dottore: I've extracted 82% of the Borg hardware. The remaining bio-implants are stable and better than anything I could synthesize on such short notice.
Sette di Nove: It is acceptable. [T:42:59]

Sette di Nove: Red.
Janeway: What?
Sette di Nove: The girl, the child you spoke of... her favourite colour was red... [T:44:07]
