Kurn
- Kurn: Soon there will be only one son of Mogh. I came for Mauk-to'Vor.
- Lt. Commander Worf: What?
- Kurn: Yes, Brother. I want you to kill me.
- Kurn: You know what... my one regret is, Worf? That we weren't raised together. In the Empire, on Earth, it wouldn't have mattered. But the sons of Mogh should have never been separated.
- Lt. Commander Worf: On that, we both agree.
- [last lines]
- Rodek: [formerly Kurn] Who are you?
- Lt. Commander Worf: I am Worf.
- Rodek: Are you part of my family?
- Lt. Commander Worf: I have no family.
- Lt. Commander Worf: How do you feel?
- Kurn: Like a man who's tired of waking up and seeing a Human doctor's face.
- [Kurn has killed a Klingon officer to save Worf's life]
- Kurn: He was a warrior, doing his duty defending the Empire, and I killed him. My dishonor is complete.
- Lt. Commander Worf: Kurn, where have you been? It has been four months since your last message.
- Kurn: I've been overseeing the end of a once proud house. Perhaps you've heard of it. It was called the House of Mogh.
- Lt. Commander Worf: I do not apologize for what I have done. I could not join Gowron in his war with Cardassia or the Federation. It would have been dishonorable.
- Kurn: Oh, so, in avoiding dishonor for yourself, you brought it down on the rest of your family. What a noble act. How selfless!
- Kurn: [to Worf] For a moment, in your quarters, during the ritual... you were Klingon. But your Federation life has claimed you again, and now it is claiming me as well. I have no life. I have no death. Whatever is to become of me is up to you.
- Kurn: I have never understood you, Worf. But I do know this: in your own way... you are an... honorable man.
- [he slums on the table]
- Lt. Commander Worf: And you will be an honorable man again. But not as my brother.
