"You know, I think that actually helped my back."
to Dukat; on being held over a rail by Dukat
Worf : 
"You want me to sponsor your application to Starfleet Academy?"
Garak : 
"What do you think?"
Worf : 
"I... think it is a bad idea."
Ducat : 
"The man is a heartless, cold-blooded killer."
Kira : 
"Like I said, he's a Cardassian!"
Tain : 
"Elim. Promise me one thing."
Garak : 
"I'm listening."
Tain : 
"Don't die here. Escape. Live."
Garak : 
"Let me guess. So I can make the Dominion pay for what they've done to you."
Tain : 
"You wouldn't deny an old man his revenge, would you?"
Garak : 
"I'll do as you ask, on one condition…That you don't ask me this favor as a mentor, or a superior officer… but as a father asking his son."
Tain : 
"You're not my son."
Garak : 
"Father, you're dying. For once in your life, speak the truth."
Tain : 
"I should have killed your mother before you were born. You have always been a weakness I can't afford."
Garak : 
"So you've told me. Many times. Listen, Enabran. All I ask is that for this moment, let me be your son."

Tain : 
"Elim, remember that day…in the country. You must've been almost five."
Garak : 
"How can I forget it? It was the only day."
Tain : 
"I can still see you, on the back of that riding hound. You must've fallen off a dozen times. But you never gave up."
Garak : 
"I remember limping home…You held my hand."
Tain : 
"I was very proud of you, that day."
