Quotes 

• Lakanta : What do you think is sacred to us here?

  Wesley Crusher : Maybe the necklace you're wearing? The designs on the walls?

  Lakanta : Everything is sacred to us - the buildings, the food, the sky, the dirt beneath your feet - and you. Whether you believe in your spirit or not, we believe in it. You are a sacred person here, Wesley.

  Wesley Crusher : I think that's the first time anyone's used that particular word to describe me.

• Lakanta : You must treat yourself with respect. To do otherwise is to desecrate something that is holy.

  Wesley Crusher : Is that what you think I've been doing?

  Lakanta : Only you can decide that.

  Wesley Crusher : I guess I haven't had a lot of respect for myself lately.

  Lakanta : Then perhaps it's time for your own vision quest to begin.

• Wesley Crusher : What are those figures?

  Lakanta : They're mansara - dolls that represent the different spirits that've come to this place.

  Wesley Crusher : That one looks like a Klingon.

  Lakanta : Yes. Our culture is rooted in the past, but it's not limited to the past. Spirits of the Klingon, the Vulcan and Ferengi... come to us just as the bear and the coyote, the parrot... There's no difference.

• Wesley Crusher : What should I do?

  Lakanta : Start the fire. Then sit and wait.

  Wesley Crusher : What am I waiting for?

  Lakanta : This is your journey, Wesley. I can open the door; but only you can go through it.

• [Wesley has a vision of his father] 

  Jack Crusher : You've reached the end, Wesley.

  Wesley Crusher : The end of what?

  Jack Crusher : This journey - one you started a long time ago. When I left you and your mother.

  Wesley Crusher : You mean when you died.

  Jack Crusher : You set out on a journey that wasn't your own. Now it's time to find a path that is truly yours. Don't follow me any further.

  Wesley Crusher : I don't understand.

  Jack Crusher : Yes, you do. It's just hard for you to accept. Goodbye, Wesley, and good luck.

• Wesley Crusher : I know Admiral Nechayev gave you an order and she was given an order from the Federation Council. But it's still wrong.

• [Wesley's last line of the series] 

  Wesley Crusher : I will. Bye, Mom.
