Rene Auberjonois: Constable Odo

Quotes 

• Odo : A lot of people feel abandoned by the Prophets.

  Colonel Kira : Believe me, I know how they feel. It's no excuse to turn to hate and fear.

  Odo : In times of trouble, some people find comfort in hate and fear.

• Odo : Nerys - I realize that things may seem bleak at the moment; but there's always hope.

  Colonel Kira : When did you turn into an optimist?

  Odo : Must have been that day in front of Quark's when we kissed for the first time.

  Colonel Kira : That was some kiss, wasn't it?

  Odo : Changed my life.

• [first lines] 

  Odo : Colonel.

  Kira : I wish you'd stop doing that.

  Odo : Doing what?

  Kira : Calling me by my rank. I was promoted two months ago. Besides, it sounds so formal.

  Odo : Well, has Admiral Ross, or should I say Bill, arrived yet?

  Kira : The Admiral's ship is due in three hours and I wish I knew what he wanted to talk to me about.

  Odo : Maybe he's bringing good news. We could certainly use it.

  Kira : Yeah, well, don't get your hopes up. There was something about the tone of his voice.

  Odo : Something ominous?

  Kira : Something pleasant. It was like he was going out of his way to be nice.

  Odo : I see.

  Kira : Well, whatever he wants to tell me, he knows I'm not going to like it.

  Odo : How can you be so sure?

  Kira : It comes with the job. No, I'm serious. Sitting in the captain's chair, having that kind of responsibility, it focuses you.

  Odo : Well, I'll take your word for it.

  Kira : [Looking down at the crowd gathered outside the station's temple]  How long have they been there?

  Odo : Three days.

  Kira : I remember when the Cult of the Pah-Wraiths was a joke. Now those red armbands are appearing all over Bajor. It's like everyone's gone crazy.
