Barry Jenner: Admiral Ross

Quotes 

• Admiral Ross : Facts are facts, Colonel. And there's no way the Bajorans can drive the Romulans off Derna, not without help, anyway; and the Federation isn't going to provide that help, not now. Is that clear?

  Colonel Kira : We're just not as important to the war effort as the Romulans.

  Admiral Ross : That's a harsh way to put it.

  Colonel Kira : The truth often is.

• Admiral Ross : You can blink now, Colonel; you've won. Senator Cretak has agreed to remove the weapons from Derna.

  Colonel Kira : What changed her mind?

  Admiral Ross : I told her if she didn't remove them, I would.

  Colonel Kira : Then what changed your mind?

  Admiral Ross : You did. Remind me never to play poker with you.
