Quotes 

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : Coffee - the finest organic suspension ever devised. It's got me through the worst of the last three years. I beat the Borg with it.

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : I'm curious, Seven. What do you think about all this? Messages? The possibility of getting home?

  Seven of Nine : It lacks any emotional resonance for me. I've never even been to Earth.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : You realize you may have family there.

  Seven of Nine : [processing this]  That had not occurred to me.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : You could have cousins, grandparents... There might be more emotional resonance than you think.

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : At the very least, we know the relay stations extend almost all the way to the Alpha Quadrant. If Starfleet has found a way to use them to transmit messages, we'll be able to stay in constant contact with people at home. That has to be comforting

  Harry Kim : Sure it is, but I think it's more comforting to think that Starfleet is going to GET us home; and, if no one objects, that's what I'm gonna do.

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : [reading the first transmissions]  "How much we miss you... We talk about you often... wondering about your... day." Sounds awfully personal from Starfleet Command. "The children have grown so much, you wouldn't..."

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : [begins to understand]  These are letters. These are letters from home.

• Chakotay : How are *you* doing?

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Me? I'm fine.

  Chakotay : You'd say that if you'd just had your legs torn off by a Trayken beast.

• [Janeway has learned that her fiancé has married somebody else] 

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : I guess I didn't really expect him to wait for me, considering the circumstances, but it made me realize that I was using him as a safety net, you know, as a way to avoid becoming involved with someone else.

  Chakotay : You don't have that safety net anymore.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : That's right. Then again, my life is far from uneventful here in the Delta Quadrant. It's not like I would've had a chance to pursue a relationship, even if I HAD realized I was alone.

  Chakotay : You're hardly alone - and to my way of thinking, there's still plenty of time.

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Plenty of time.

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : [talking about her letter from home]  It was from Mark, the man I was engaged to. He told me about the litter of puppies my dog had, and how he found homes for them, how devastated he was when Voyager was lost, how he held out hopes we were alive longer than most people did until he realized that he was clinging to a fantasy; so, he began living his life again, meeting people, letting go of the past. About four months ago, he married a woman who works with him. He's very happy.

  Chakotay : How do you feel about that?

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Well, I knew he'd eventually move on with his life, but there was such a finality to that letter.
