Quotes 

• Sub-Commander T'Pol : "Terra Nova"?

  Captain Jonathan Archer : I'm surprised you've never heard of it.

  Sub-Commander T'Pol : I'm not familiar with the early years of Human space exploration.

  Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : Really? Every school kid on Earth had to learn about the famous Vulcan expeditions.

  Sub-Commander T'Pol : Name one.

  Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : [after a period of unsuccessful thinking]  History was never my best subject.

• [Archer tells T'Pol that no one has heard from the Terra Nova colony in over 70 years] 

  Sub-Commander T'Pol : My experience with Humans is limited. But I've come to learn that they're quite resourceful. Terra Nova may still be there, Captain.

• [Archer wants to persuade the Novan colonists to return to Earth] 

  Sub-Commander T'Pol : Are you certain it is the right thing?

  Captain Jonathan Archer : What're you talking about?

  Sub-Commander T'Pol : When you get them back to Earth, what will you do? Send them to school, teach them to read and write? Wear Human clothing, eat Human food? Teach them to live on the surface? Enjoy the sunshine?

  Captain Jonathan Archer : You're damn straight. They're Human beings. It's their birthright. It might take a little while, but they'll adapt. It's a hell of a lot better than dying down in those tunnels.

  Sub-Commander T'Pol : They've lived in those tunnels for three generations. You can't just pluck them up and bring them to a strange world and hope they'll learn to conform. You'd be destroying their identity, destroying the Novan culture.
