• [last lines of the series] 

  Captain Jean-Luc Picard : [voice-over]  Space - the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Its continuing mission...

  Captain James T. Kirk : [voice-over]  ... to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations...

  Captain Jonathan Archer : [voice-over]  ... to boldly go where no man has gone before.

• Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : When I took command ten years ago, I saw myself as an explorer. I thought all the risks would be worth it. Because just beyond the next planet, just beyond the next star, there would be something magnificent, something noble. And now, Trip is dead, and I have to give a speech about how worthwhile it's all been.

  Commander T'Pol (hologram) : Trip would be the first to say it was worthwhile.

• [Chef has proposed to prepare everybody's favorite dish for their last dinner on Enterprise] 

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : [to Porthos]  Don't worry. Chef's promised at least six kinds of cheese.

• Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : Here's to the next generation.

• Cmdr. C. 'Trip' Tucker (hologr.) : You don't need to be puttin' yourself in harm's way. I'm telling you, we can take care of it.

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : Rigel was the first place we visited, remember? Now it's gonna be the last. Poetic justice. Why should you have all the fun?

• Cmdr. C. 'Trip' Tucker (hologr.) : You must be gettin' tired of saving my life.

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : I'm glad I didn't take your advice about not coming along.

  Cmdr. C. 'Trip' Tucker (hologr.) : Yeah, you and me both. Then again, you almost got yourself killed down there. Wouldn't have gone over too big at the ceremony.

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : Signing documents are easy. Training a new engineer... that can be a real pain in the ass.

• Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : Time heals all wounds. But absence makes the heart grow fonder. I guess it's a little tricky. Emotions have a way of counterdicting themselves.

  Commander T'Pol (hologram) : And you wonder why we suppress them?

• Dr. Phlox (hologram) : I wouldn't be surprised if this alliance begins to expand before we know it. You should be very proud of yourself, Captain.

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : I'll be proud of myself if I get this speech out in one piece.

  Dr. Phlox (hologram) : That's not what I meant.

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : I know what you meant, Phlox. And I appreciate it. But this is not about me.

  Commander T'Pol (hologram) : Why do so many Humans refuse to take credit where credit is due? There are times when modesty and humility are quite illogical.

• Commander T'Pol (hologram) : Captain, Admiral Douglas is asking you to approve the decommission protocols.

  Capt. Jonathan Archer (hologr.) : One thing at a time. After the charter's signed, I'll give him whatever he needs to put Enterprise in mothballs.

  Comm Voice : All senior staff, report to the bridge.

  Commander William T. Riker : Computer, freeze program. Save from this time index.

  Enterprise-D Computer : Program saved.

  Commander William T. Riker : End program.
