Ethan Phillips: Neelix

Quotes 

• Neelix : Lieutenant... without knowing why there's a black cloud hanging over your head, may I suggest something?

  B'Elanna Torres : Go right ahead.

  Neelix : You have a... bit of a temper... that you keep reined in, and sometimes it builds up inside you until you explode at someone.

  B'Elanna Torres : I'd say that about sums it up.

  Neelix : I'm offering to be a pressure valve.

  B'Elanna Torres : A what?

  Neelix : You may use me to blow off steam. When you're angry, come see me, call me names, insult me, question my parentage - I won't take it personally, and you won't need to keep things bottled up inside anymore.

  B'Elanna Torres : That may be the nicest offer I've had in a long time.

• Lumas : Because we have no resources, everyone treats us like vagrants, even criminals.

  Chakotay : We're not unsympathetic, but we have limited supplies. We can't possibly provide enough for all your people.

  Lumas : Forgive me, but, heh, from my perspective, you live in luxury. You don't suffer from debilitating diseases. You have many sources of energy... uh, replicators. Your crew is very well fed. Apparently, keeping your bellies full is more important to you than helping those less fortunate.

  Neelix : That's unfair. These are the most generous people you could hope to meet - but if we gave supplies to everyone who asked, we wouldn't have anything left.
