Dr. Lenara Kahn
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: Nilani wasn't panicking the day before Torias died.
- Dr. Lenara Kahn: No?
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: No. Torias should have listened to her. The shuttle was not ready for a full impulse test. But Torias had to do it anyway. And he was wrong. And whatever part of me is still Torias... is very sorry, and wishes he'd listened to you.

- Dr. Lenara Kahn: Dax, I am not like you. I don't have a little Curzon inside me telling me to be impulsive, to ignore the rules, to give up everything that I've worked for.
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: Can you really walk away from me? From us? After all this time we're together. Don't throw that away!
- Dr. Lenara Kahn: I don't want to! Maybe I need more time. Maybe if I go back to Trill for a while, I... I'll think it over, I... I can always come back later.
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: I wish I could believe you. But ultimately it comes down to this: if you feel about me the way I feel about you, you won't go on that transport tomorrow. And if you do leave, I think we both know... you're never coming back again.
- Dr. Lenara Kahn: It's really good to see you again, Dax. That sounds so strange. I mean, I'm looking at a different face, hearing a different voice... But somehow it's still you.
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: I know. Every time I start to think of you as just Lenara, you'll smile, or laugh, and suddenly it's you.
- Dr. Lenara Kahn: [at a reception party] I suppose we should load up our plates, since the whole room is watching us.
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: [appraising the people around] Quite an audience.
- Dr. Lenara Kahn: Seems a shame to disappoint them; maybe we should do something.
- Lt. Commander Jadzia Dax: Well, we could get into a screaming match and start throwing things at each other.
- Dr. Lenara Kahn: Not bad. Or I suppose we could throw ourselves at each other, profess our undying love for each other, and complete disregard for Trill society.
