Quotes 

• Kevin Uxbridge : [of Rishon]  I saw her broken body. I went insane. My hatred exploded. And in an instant of grief... I destroyed the Husnock.

  Doctor Beverly Crusher : Why did you try to hide this from all of us? Was it out of guilt for not helping Rishon and the others when they were alive?

  Kevin Uxbridge : No, no, no, no, no, you-you don't understand the scope of my crime. I didn't kill just one Husnock, or a hundred, or a thousand. I killed them all. All Husnock, everywhere. - Are 11,000 people worth... 50 billion? Is the love of a woman worth the destruction of an entire species?

• Lieutenant Worf : Sir - may I say your attempt to hold the away team at bay with a non-functioning weapon was an act of unmitigated gall.

  Kevin Uxbridge : Didn't fool you, huh?

  Lieutenant Worf : I admire gall.

• Capt. Picard : Tell me this - if Rishon were in danger, would you kill to save her life?

  Kevin Uxbridge : No, not for her... not for anyone. I will not kill.

• [Kevin has freed Troi of the music] 

  Kevin Uxbridge : She was beginning to sense who I really was. I've lived as a Human for over fifty years, but I couldn't hide from her. She has suffered because of my pride and selfishness. It will not happen again.

• Kevin Uxbridge : [about the reason why he and Rishon may have survived their planet's destruction]  I'm a man of special conscience. While the others did what they could, I chose not to fight.
