Quotes 

• Odo : Unauthorized access to crew quarters is a crime, Quark. You could have just asked to use the replicators.

  Quark : There's an old Ferengi saying: "Never ask when you can take". Uh... how d'you figure it out?

  Odo : You claimed Rom fixed your replicators?

  Quark : So?

  Odo : Rom's an idiot. He couldn't fix a straw if it was bent.

  Quark : You're right, Rom is an idiot. Remind me to get rid of him tomorrow.

• Odo : I need to get to docking port V now. That ship's gonna explode in five minutes!

  Quark : I'll beam you over.

  Odo : You?

  Quark : Relax. I served on a Ferengi freighter for eight years.

  Odo : All right.

  [he rushes onto the transporter pad] 

  Quark : I must have witnessed the procedure hundreds of times!

  Odo : Witnessed? You mean to say you never handled the controls yourself?

  Quark : Energizing!

  [waves Odo goodbye as he beams him away] 

• [Quark finds out his food carrier was the shape-shifted Odo] 

  Quark : Ah. I thought the front wheels were sticking a bit.

• Quark : You, gold! Owe, MEEEE!

• [Quark is testing his dabo wheel when Odo enters] 

  Quark : Care to place a friendly wager?... If it's your reputation you're thinking about, no one need ever know.

  Odo : It has nothing to do with my reputation. The truth is, I never... learned the game.

  Quark : You mean you sat here for all these years and you don't even know how to gamble?

  Odo : That's correct.

  Quark : No wonder you always look so bored.

• Odo : Quark. Am I to believe that you're volunteering to help?

  Quark : Who said anything about volunteering? We can haggle over price later.

• Quark : Major Kira! Lieutenant Dax! I'd be honored to have you join my little party, as my guests, of course.

  Major Kira : What's all this, Quark? You cheat your 1,000th customer?

  Quark : Who says Bajorans don't have a sense of humor?

• [Quark is talking to an aphasia patient with lots of gestures and mimics] 

  Quark : Food! Dabo! Drinks! Money! Hand, mine - give!

  Commander Sisko : Well, Quark, I see even you couldn't weasel your way clear of this one.

  Quark : You underestimate the Ferengi immune system, Commander. I'm merely here visiting my less fortunate customers to make sure they're not faking the illness to avoid paying their bills!

  Commander Sisko : No one could be that devious.

  Quark : I am.

• Quark : Odo? Quark to Odo? You're still with us?

  Odo : Try not to sound too disappointed.
