Arturis : | "My people managed to elude the Borg for centuries! Outwitting them, always one step ahead! But in recent years, the Borg began to weaken our defenses. They were closing in, and Species 8472 was our last hope to defeat them. You took that away from us! The outer colonies were the first to fall; 23 in a matter of hours. Our sentry vessels tossed aside, no defense against the storm. And by the time they had surrounded our star system... hundreds of cubes... we had already surrendered to our own terror." | | to Janeway; recounting the assimilation of his species by the Borg |
|
Janeway : | "I'm your captain. That means I can't always be your friend. Understand?" |
Seven : | "No. However, if we are assimilated, then our thoughts will become one, and I'm sure I will understand perfectly." |
|
Seven : | "You were correct, captain. My desire to remain in the Delta Quadrant was based on fear. I am no longer Borg... but the prospect of becoming Human is... unsettling. I don't know where I belong." |
Janeway : | "You belong with us." |
| assuring her of her place on Voyager's crew |
|
Janeway : | "I can't begin to imagine your loss. But try to see beyond your desire for revenge." |
Arturis : | "Revenge is all I have left." |
Janeway : | "No. As long as you're alive, there's hope. Your people's accomplisments, their knowledge, their dignity can survive in you. End this." |
|
Seven : | "Impossible is a word that Humans use far too often." |
