The Omega Directive Quotes

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "What is it the Borg say? That Omega is perfect?"

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Is that a theory or a belief?"

• (Harry Kim) "Is there anything you don't know?"
• (Seven of Nine) "I was Borg."
• (Harry Kim) ""I was Borg." That's what you always say, but what does it mean? You have the knowledge of 10,000 species in your head?"
• (Seven of Nine) "Not exactly. Each drone's experiences are processed by the Collective. Only useful information is retained."
• (Harry Kim) "Still, that probably makes you the most intelligent human being alive."
• (Seven of Nine) "Probably."
• (Harry Kim) "So what do you need the rest of us for?"
• (Harry Kim) "Forget I asked."

• (Harry Kim) "Give me a few more minutes to figure this out."

• (Tuvok) "A curious statement, from a woman of science."
• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "I'm also a woman who occasionally knows when to quit."

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Tell me -- how many Borg were sacrificed during this experiment?"

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "One of two things is going to happen: either Seven and I will succeed on our mission and return within a few days; or your long-range sensors will detect a large explosion in subspace. If that occurs, you'll have less than ten seconds to jump to warp and get the hell out of here. Head for the Alpha Quadrant and don't look back, understood?"

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "I don't care if you can make it sing and dance. We're getting rid of it."

• (Seven of Nine) "Particle 010; the Borg designation for what you call Omega. Every drone is aware of its existence. We were instructed to assimilate it at all costs. It is -- perfection. The molecules exist in a flawless state. Infinite parts functioning as one."
• (Chakotay) "Like the Borg."
• (Seven of Nine) "Precisely. I am no longer Borg; but I still need to understand that perfection. Without it, my existence will never be complete."

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Sometimes fear should be respected, Seven."

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "I have to admit, I have never been this apprehensive about a mission. I know how Einstein must have felt about the atom bomb, or Marcus, when she developed the Genesis Device. They watched helplessly, as science took a destructive course. But I have the chance to prevent that from happening. I just hope it's not too late."

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "The Borg's Holy Grail."
• (Seven of Nine) "Captain?"
• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Never mind."

• (Harry Kim) "Seven's taking this hive mentality just a little too far. Designated functions, numbered drones; I wouldn't be surprised if she started plugging us into alcoves."
• (Chakotay) "When in the Collective, Harry, adapt."

• (Seven of Nine) "Six of Ten, this is not your assignment."
• (Harry Kim) "Please, stop calling me that."
• (Seven of Nine) "You're compromising our productivity -- I'm reassigning you to chamber maintenance. Your new designation is Two of Ten."
• (Harry Kim) "Wait a minute. You're demoting me? Since when do the Borg pull rank?"
• (Seven of Nine) "A Starfleet protocol I adapted. I find it most useful."
• (Harry Kim) "I'm glad you're not the Captain."

• (Seven of Nine) "Which of them is the senior researcher?"

• (Voyager Computer) "0600 hours. Regeneration cycle complete."
• (Seven of Nine) "Daily log, Seven of Nine, Stardate 15781.2; Today, Ensign Kim and I will conduct a comprehensive diagnostic of the aft sensor array. I have allocated 3 hours 20 minutes for the task, and an additional 17 minutes for Ensign Kim's usual conversational digressions. I am scheduled to take a nutritional supplement at 1500 hours, engage in one hour of cardiovascular activity. Then I intend to review a text the Doctor recommended, entitled 'A Christmas Carol'. He believes it will have educational value. End log."

• (Seven of Nine) "229 years ago."
• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Assimilation?"
• (Seven of Nine) "Yes. Of thirteen different species."
• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Thirteen?"
• (Seven of Nine) "It began with Species 262. They were primitive, but their oral history referred to a powerful substance which could burn the sky. The Borg were intrigued. Which led them to Species 263. They, too, were primitive and believed it was a drop of blood from their creator."
• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "Fascinating."
• (Seven of Nine) "Yes, but irrelevant."

• (Harry Kim) "Wanna know what I think?"
• (Tuvok) "No."
• (Harry Kim) "I think there's a type-6 protostar out there, and the Captain's planning on detonating it and opening up a wormhole to the Alpha Quadrant. In theory, it's possible. And because she doesn't want to get our hopes up, she's not telling anybody."
• (Tuvok) "Then I wouldn't suggest getting your hopes up."

• (Captain Kathryn Janeway) "I wondered who was running my program. Master da Vinci doesn't like visitors after midnight."
