Quotes 

• [Kira has suggested Major Jatarn as new first officer for Sisko] 

  Major Kira : If, um... if you don't hit it off with Major Jatarn, um, I can think of a few other people. Shouldn't be that hard to find someone to replace me.

  Captain Sisko : I don't doubt that I can find someone to fill your post. But to replace you...

• Odo : Forgive me, Major, I don't mean to be difficult, but your faith seems to have led you to something of a contradiction.

  Major Kira : I don't see it as a contradiction.

  Odo : I don't understand.

  Major Kira : That's the thing about faith. If you don't have it you can't understand it, and if you do - no explanation is necessary.

• [Kira places a crude clay sculpture in front of Sisko] 

  Major Kira : I want you to have this. It's an original Kira Nerys. Could be very valuable one day.

  Captain Sisko : I hear she didn't make many.

• Major Kira : Who are you?

  Akorem Laan : I am the Emissary.

• Major Kira : [as prophet]  You are the Sisko.

• Captain Sisko : I was just reading one of Akorem's poems, "The Call of the Prophets".

  Major Kira : Oh, that's one of my favorites. It's a shame he never finished it.

  Captain Sisko : He did. Look.

  [he hands her the PADD with the poem] 

  Major Kira : Now, this is confusing. The last time I read this poem, it ended after the 12th stanza. If the timeline's been changed, then why do I remember things the way they used to be?

  Captain Sisko : The Prophets work in mysterious ways.
