Quote Episode
Dukat : 
"Education is power. Joy is vulnerability."
DS9 : The Maquis, Part 1
Dukat : 
"Where's Commander Sisko? I trust he wasn't vaporized, while asking for one of those raktajinos he's so fond of?"
DS9 : Civil Defense
Dukat : 
"Garak, groveling in a corner. That alone makes my trip worthwhile."
DS9 : Civil Defense
Dukat : 
"When my son looks back on this day, the only thing he'll remember is that a Federation officer on a Federation ship invaded his home and kept his father away from him on his eleventh birthday. And he won't look back with understanding... he'll look back with hatred. And that's sad."
to Sisko
DS9 : Defiant
Dukat : 
"Everything I have lost I will regain. It's only a matter of time."
to Kira
DS9 : Return to Grace
Dukat : 
"First it was Vedek Bareil, now it's the head of the Bajoran government. You do like powerful men don't you?"
to Kira
DS9 : Return to Grace
Kira : 
"Why is it when you smile I want to leave the room?"
Dukat : 
"I suppose it's because of my overwhelming charm."
DS9 : Return to Grace
Dukat : 
"I'm a much more complicated man than you give me credit for."
to Kira
DS9 : Return to Grace
Dukat : 
"Lately, when my mind wanders, I find myself thinking more and more about Gul Marratt. Do you know him? Very dashing. One of Cardassia's rising stars. Graduate of the Cardassian Military Academy, smooth-talking junior member of the Detepa Council, and like your friend Shakaar, quite a lady's man. Especially with other officer's wives."
Kira : 
"Including yours?"
Dukat : 
"Mmm. A year ago he wouldn't have dared, but now? I think the first thing I do when I'm returned to power is to demote him. Assign him to the Cardassian Embassy on Breen. I hear it's bitter cold on Breen. And we Cardassians do despise the cold..."
DS9 : Return to Grace
Dukat : 
"There was a time when the mere mention of my race inspired fear. And now... we're a beaten people. Afraid to fight back because we're afraid to lose what little is left."
to Kira
DS9 : Return to Grace
Dukat : 
"I am the only Cardassian left... and if no one else will stand against the Klingons, I will."
to Kira
DS9 : Return to Grace
Dukat : 
"Bad manners are the fault of the parent, not the child."
to Dax
DS9 : Things Past
Ducat : 
"The man is a heartless, cold-blooded killer."
Kira : 
"Like I said, he's a Cardassian!"
DS9 : In Purgatory's Shadow
Dukat : 
"I could make things very pleasant for you here, Kira."
Kira : 
"You could start by doing something about your breath."
Dukat : 
"I'm a patient man. I can wait."
Kira : 
"Wait for what? What do you think is going to happen here, Dukat? That you're going to wear me down with your charming personality? That I'm going to be swept off my feet by that insincere smile? Are you really so deluded that you actually believe that we're going to have some kind of intimate relationship?"
Dukat : 
"Oh, we already do."
DS9 : A Time to Stand
Dukat : 
"I should have killed every last one of them! I should have turned their planet into a graveyard the likes of which the galaxy had never seen! I should have killed them all!"
Sisko : 
"And that is why you're not an evil man?"
DS9 : Waltz
Sisko : 
"Is there anything I can get for you?"
Dukat : 
"Hmm. A bottle of Kanar and an Orion slave girl would be nice."
Sisko : 
"I'll see what I can do."
DS9 : Waltz
Benyan : 
"This is his child! That's why you tried to kill Mika!!"
Dukat : 
"The Pah-wraiths have forgiven my sins! They've given me their absolution! Who are you to presume they're wrong?! Who are you to judge me?!! Then it's done! Our covenant is broken! None of you will ever know the love of the Pah-wraiths!! None of you!!"
DS9 : Covenant
Dukat : 
"Go. Crawl back to your Prophets. Beg their forgiveness. Live the rest of your lifeā€¦ in Sisko's shadow!!"
to Winn
DS9 : Strange Bedfellows
Winn : 
"I'm a patient woman, but I have run out of patience. I will no longer serve gods who give me nothing in return. I am ready to walk the path the Pah-wraiths have laid out for me."
Dukat : 
"I'll walk with you. And no one will be able to stand against us."
Winn : 
"Those who dare to try, the Federation and its vedek puppets, the false gods and their precious Emissary, they'll all be swept aside like dead leaves before an angry wind."
DS9 : Strange Bedfellows
Dukat : 
"There. You see? The Pah-wraiths have judged you and found you worthy. Their secrets are now your secrets to do with as you please. Take their gift and use it. Seize the power they're offering you!"
to Winn; on reading the Book of the Kosst Amojan
DS9 : The Changing Face of Evil
Winn : 
"Remember your place, Dukat!"
Dukat : 
"I thought my place was in your bed."
DS9 : When it Rains...
Dukat : 
"Adami, I'm not the same man I was during the Occupation. The Pah-wraiths have changed me."
Winn : 
"But they can't change what you did. Do you really think I could let myself be touched by a man whose hands are stained with the blood of my people?"
Dukat : 
"When we do release the Pah-wraiths from the Fire Caves, your hands will be stained as well."
Winn : 
"The Pah-wraiths will spare those they find worthy. The rest are of no consequence."
DS9 : When it Rains...
Dukat : 
"Benjamin, please. We've known each other too long. And since this is the last time we will ever be together, let's try to speak honestly. We've both had victories and our defeats. Now it's time to resolve our differences and face the ultimate truth. I've won, Benjamin. You've lost."
Sisko : 
"The Pah wraith will never conquer anything. Not Bajor. Not the Celestial Temple. And certainly not the Alpha Quadrant.
Dukat : 
"And who's going to stop us?"
Sisko : 
"I am."
DS9 : What You Leave Behind
