INNOCENCE

Janeway: Sometimes you have to go in blind. That's the exciting part.

Chakotay: I very proudly made the traditional gesture for hello, not realizing that males and females of their race use different styles of movement and I was actually propositioning the ambassador.

Alcia: May this day find you at peace and leave you with hope.
Elani: I don't want to stay here anymore. I don't like it here.

Tuvok: Your displeasure doesn't change our situation, nor does it bring us any closer to a solution.

Doctor: We don't often receive such distinguished guests here unless there's been some sort of accident. I'm... sure nothing unfortunate will happen to you on your visit here.... but if it does you can rest assured you will find yourself in very capable hands.

Doctor: Was it something I said?

Corin: Tuvok, do you have any children?
Tuvok: Yes, four children.
Corin: What are they like?
Tuvok: Well-behaved.
Elani: If Vulcans don't feel anything, does that mean you don't love them?
Tuvok: My attachment to my children cannot be described as an emotion. They are part of my identity. And I am incomplete without them.

Tuvok: It is illogical for a society to kill its own children.

Tuvok: I never understood the practice in some cultures of describing ferocious creatures in an attempt to lull children to sleep.
Tressa: I'm scared.
Tuvok: We often fear what we do not understand. Our best defense if knowledge.

Tuvok: I cannot protect you from the natural conclusion of life, nor would I try. Vulcans consider death to be the completion of a journey. There is nothing to fear.
Tressa: My only regret is leaving my family, my grandson. You remind me of him sometimes.
Tuvok: You will still be with them in their thoughts. As you will be in mine.

Chakotay from his people: Peace in your heart, fortune in your steps.

Drayan Woman: It is not a choice. This is her time. Tressa has reached the end of her life.
Tuvok: She has hardly begun it.
Drayan Woman: She is 96 years old! Tressa these people are outsiders, they don't understand how we live. They see us as strange because their aging process is reversed.
