Quotes
Kira: You know that woman?
Dax: I know her. She used to be my wife.
Quark: And now... Nilani is Lenara, and Torias is Jadzia. So that makes Lenara Jadzia's ex-wife.
Kira: It's a little more complicated than that, Quark.
Kira: I don't understand how two people who've fallen in love, and made a life together, can be forced to just... walk away from each other because of some... taboo.
Dax: Nilani wasn't panicking the day before Torias died.
Lenara: No?
Dax: No. Torias should've listened to her. The shuttle wasn't 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.
Dax (to Lenara): The irony is that you and I have more in common than Torias and Nilani ever did.
Lenara (to Dax): I'm looking at a different face, hearing a different voice... but somehow, it's still you.
Dax: Maybe we shouldn't have this conversation.
Lenara: Would that do any good... would it change how either of us feels?
Lenara: I thought I'd gotten over you... it's been so long... so much has happened. But now I know I haven't...
Dax: I've missed you so much.
Sisko: You've told me again and again that each host is only a link in a chain... and that no matter what happens, the life of the symbiont must go on.
Dax: I know that... and I believe in it. But I also know that I love her, Benjamin.
Dax (to Sisko): I've lived seven lifetimes... and I've never had a friend quite like you.
Dax: I thought I lost you...
Lenara: So did I... I don't want to lose you... not again...
Dax: Not again... never again...
Dax (to Lenara): But in the end, all that matters is how we feel... and what we do about it. Because either way, we're the ones who have to live with the consequences.
Lenara (to Dax): When you're not around, it's like part of me is missing. I want to be with you more than anything...
Dax (to Lenara): ultimately, it comes down to this... if you feel about me the way I feel about you... you won't get on that transport tomorrow. And if you do leave... I think we both know you're never coming back.
