  • We are the Franklin Mint of Borg. You will be assimilated….in five easy monthly payments.

  • We have only two things to worry about–either that things will never get back to normal, or that they already have
  • We live for the one–we die for the one–Hold it!  They didn't mention *that* in the recruiting flyer on Minbar
  • We must be devious, cunning, inventive…too bad we're us
  • We stand between the Darkness and the Light–and always wear a petticoat
  • We tend to meet any new situation by reorganizing…and a wonderful method it is for creating the illusion of progress, while producing confusion, inefficiency, and demoralization
  • We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the ancients, but we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me

  • This universe is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper.
  • This universe is sold by mass, not by volume.  Some expansion may have occurred during shipment.
