Chief Miles O'Brien
- Omet'iklan: I am First Omet'iklan, and I am dead. As of this moment, we are all dead. We go into battle to reclaim our lives. This we do gladly, for we are Jem'Hadar. Remember: victory is life.
- Jem'Hadar: Victory is life!
- [the Jem'Hadar march out]
- Weyoun: Such a delightful people.
- [O'Brien turns to face the assembled Federation officers]
- O'Brien: I am Chief Miles Edward O'Brien. I am very much alive, and I intend to stay that way.
- Sisko: Amen! Let's get it done!
- [O'Brien has recorded a potential good-bye message to his family]
- O'Brien: Every time I record one of these, I think... this is it. This is the one they're gonna end up hearing.
- Jadzia Dax: It'll never happen.
- O'Brien: What makes you say that?
- Jadzia Dax: Because, when you've lived eight lifetimes, you develop certain instincts. And my instincts tell me that you, Miles Edward O'Brien, are going to live to be 140 and die in bed, surrounded by family and friends.
- O'Brien: Do you really believe that?
- Jadzia Dax: Do you?
- O'Brien: I'd like to.
- Jadzia Dax: That's all that matters.
- O'Brien: [after a pause] Well, just to be on the safe side, maybe you'd better enter this into the ship's log anyway.
- Jadzia Dax: I'll put it right alongside my message to my mother.
- O'Brien: You record these too?
- Jadzia Dax: Doesn't everyone?
- Sisko: There'll be a joint briefing session at 1900 hours.
- O'Brien: ...followed by a get-to-know-you buffet at 1930.
- Jadzia Dax: And I forgot my dress uniform.
- [Weyoun has been intently watching Odo for some time]
- O'Brien: [to Odo] I wonder what would happen if you went over there and ordered him to stand on his head.
