Quotes 

• Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : Do me a favor, don't try to get on my good side.

  Degra : Look, I understand you and I will always be enemies.

  Commander Charles 'Trip' Tucker III : You got that right.

  Degra : I can't change what happened to your sister, or any of the seven million. But I'm risking my life, I'm risking the lives of my family, I've killed members of my own species, all because I'm trying to save both our worlds!

• Degra : [of Dolim]  There's a story about him - I don't know if it's true; I'd like to believe it isn't: his daughter gave birth to a son. He had a deformity in his right arm, not life-threatening, but enough to preclude his ever joining the military. Commander Dolim had his own grandson poisoned.

  Captain Jonathan Archer : From what I've seen, that's not hard to believe.

  Degra : As I said, it may be just a story. But as a father, it's always in the back of my mind, whenever I have dealings with him.

• Degra : That future you spoke of...

  [he offers Archer his hand] 

  Degra : Perhaps this is where it begins.

• Degra : There's a saying: "It's easier to count the stars in the sky than it is for an Aquatic to reach a decision."

• Sphere-Builder Woman : What have we done to lose your faith?

  Degra : You never deserved my faith!
