The screenwriters of Deep Space Nine sure were creative. Over those 7 seasons, 173 episodes, they've come up with all sorts of famous lines.
So, I ask all of you, which one do you think is the most memorable?

the affection of children...to leave the world a better place...to
know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is
to have succeeded.”

"Old Man" referencing Jadzia, then Ezri Dax.
They say that in the Army,
the women are mighty fine.
They look like Phyllis Diller,
and walk like Frankenstein.

Man someone needs to sig that.
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.
