Rightful Heir Quotes

• (Unnamed) "We are Klingons."

• (Captain Jean-Luc Picard) "Have you lost your faith in Sto-vo-kor?"
• (Lieutenant Worf) "To lose something, one must first possess it."

• (Kahless) "You still do not believe it is me, do you, Worf?"
• (Lieutenant Worf) "I want to believe."
• (Kahless) "That is a beginning."

• (Koroth) "So, here we are; on a world circling that distant point of light. It has been fifteen centuries since he made that promise, and still we wait. What are ten days in the life of one Klingon compared to that? Is the son of Mogh really so easily discouraged? You came to us seeking answers; but this is a place of questions. Open your heart to Kahless. Ask him your questions. Let him speak to you with your mind unclouded by doubt or hesitation. Only then can you find what you are looking for. If you cannot do that -- then perhaps you should return to your starship."

• (Kahless) "Kahless left us; all of us; a powerful legacy. A way of thinking and acting that makes us Klingon. If his words hold wisdom and his philosophy is honorable, what does it matter if he returns? What is important is that we follow his teachings. Perhaps the words are more important than the man."

• (Koroth) "What is the story of The Promise, Worf?"
• (Lieutenant Worf) "When Kahless had united our people and gave them the laws of honor, he saw that his work was done. So one night he gathered his belongings and departed for the edge of the city to say goodbye."
• (Koroth) "The people wept. They did not want him to go."
• (Lieutenant Worf) "Then Kahless said: "You are Klingons. You need no one but yourselves. I will go now to Sto-vo-kor. But I promise, one day I will return." Then Kahless pointed to a star in the sky and said: "Look for me there, on that point of light.""

• (Kahless) "I have returned."

• (Gowron) "Kahless; the greatest warrior of them all."

• (Lieutenant Worf) "Even if he is not the real Kahless, he is the rightful heir to Kahless."

• (Lieutenant Worf) "It will be glorious."
• (Gowron) "It will be war."

• (Gowron) "I oppose you. I say you are not Kahless; and I will not bend my knee to you, as long as I can draw breath; or pick up a blade."

• (Lieutenant Worf) "I went to Boreth to find my faith. For a time, I thought I had. But my heart is empty again. I do not know what to believe."

• (Koroth) "The title is meaningless without the power to back it up."
• (Lieutenant Worf) "Real power comes from within the heart."

• (Gowron) "Kahless has been dead for a thousand years; but the idea of Kahless is still alive. Have you ever fought an idea, Picard? It has no weapon to destroy, no body to kill. The idea of Kahless's return must be stopped here and now; or it will travel through the Empire like a wave, and leave nothing but destruction behind."

• (Gowron) "Koroth; I see that not all fools die young."

• (Kahless) "I am Kahless. And I have returned."

• (Lt. Commander Data) "I once had what could be considered a crisis of the spirit."
• (Lieutenant Worf) "You?"
• (Lt. Commander Data) "Yes. The Starfleet officers who first activated me on Omicron Theta told me I was an android; nothing more than a sophisticated machine with human form. However, I realized that if I was simply a machine, I could never be anything else; I could never grow beyond my programming. I found that difficult to accept. So I chose to believe -- that I was a person; that I had the potential to be more than a collection of circuits and subprocessors. It is a belief which I still hold."
• (Lieutenant Worf) "How did you come to your decision?"
• (Lt. Commander Data) "I made -- a leap of faith."

• (Kahless) "You have no joy, Gowron."

• (Kahless) "Are you contemplating yet another question for me? After three days, I'm beginning to wonder if you know how to do anything else."
• (Lieutenant Worf) "Questions are the beginning of wisdom, the mark of a true warrior."
• (Kahless) "Do not forget that a leader need not answer questions of those he leads. It is enough that he says to do a thing, and they will do it. If he says to run, they run. If he says to fight, they fight. If he says to die; they die."
