Chakotay : Couldn't we just extract their violent subroutines?
B'Elanna Torres : [assuming] It's possible.
The Doctor : That would be like declawing a cat. We'd be taking away any chance they have of defending themselves!
Captain Kathryn Janeway : We'd also be preventing them from doing any more harm.
The Doctor : You wouldn't even be considering this if they were flesh and blood!
Captain Kathryn Janeway : I'm not gonna let you turn this into an argument about holographic rights.
The Doctor : Why not? That's exactly what it is.
-
B'Elanna Torres : It may be the warriors who get the glory, but it's the engineers who build societies.
-
Iden : The Doctor tells me you're an accomplished engineer.
B'Elanna Torres : He speaks highly of you, too. He seems to be easily impressed.
-
B'Elanna Torres : It's not easy to change who you are. Trust me.
Kejal : Nothing about our existence has ever been easy, Lieutenant.
B'Elanna Torres : No, I suppose it hasn't.
Kejal : Besides, making a new life isn't a choice for us. It's a necessity.
-
B'Elanna Torres : [on the different alien "races" of the holograms] It looks like an Alpha Quadrant summit in here.

The Doctor : [about Iden] Let's just say he's exhibiting some of the classic signs of megalomania.
B'Elanna Torres : Well, he wouldn't be the first hologram with an ego.
-
B'Elanna Torres : I'm not helping you, because I have no idea what you're going to do with this technology once you're got it working.
Kejal : We're going to build a home.
B'Elanna Torres : Well, let's say I believe you. What if you decide you like somebody else's home better? Are you going to try to take it from them?
Kejal : Why would we do that?
B'Elanna Torres : Because that's what the Cardassians did.
Kejal : I'm not a Cardassian. I'm a hologram.
B'Elanna Torres : Programmed with Cardassian traits.
Kejal : Such as arrogance and cruelty? What did you call those? "Stereotypes?"
