Quotes 

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : Neelix - do we have any coffee left?

  Neelix : No. But we have something even better!

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : I don't want something even better, I want coffee!

• Kes : Do all nebulas look like that?

  Neelix : I wouldn't know. I'm smart enough to go around nebulas when I encounter them!

  Kes : These people are natural born explorers, Neelix.

  Neelix : These people are natural born *idiots*, if you ask me! They don't appreciate what they have here. This ship is the match of any vessel within a hundred light years, and what do they do with it?

  Neelix : [mimicking]  "Well, uh, let's see if we can't find some space anomaly today that might rip it apart!"

• Captain Kathryn Janeway : [after Neelix has requested to stay behind during the 'nebula'-mission]  All our crews are busy preparing for this mission. I'm not pulling them off their duties to prepare your ship for launch, and I'm not gonna drop you off on the side of the road every time we hit a bump. When we're finished, if you wanna leave, that's your business. But for the moment, find yourself a seat with a good view; because - just like Jonah and the whale - you're going in.

  Neelix : Is that final?

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : Dismissed.

  [Neelix stays put, confused] 

  Captain Kathryn Janeway : That's a Starfleet expression for 'get out'!

• Kes : I don't think the Captain is an idiot. She cares a great deal about her crew.

  Neelix : You don't 'care a great deal' about your crew and introduce them to the spectre of death at every opportunity.
