Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Season 1

Benjamin Sisko:
Is something bothering you, Major?

Kira Nerys:
You don’t want to ask me that, Commander.

Benjamin Sisko:
Why not?

Kira Nerys:
Because I have the bad habit of telling the truth, even when people don’t want to hear it.

Benjamin Sisko:
Perhaps I want to hear it.

Kira Nerys:
I don’t believe the Federation has any business being here.

Benjamin Sisko:
The provisional government disagrees with you.

Kira Nerys:
The provisional government and I don’t agree on a lot of things, which is probably why they sent me to this god-forsaken place. I have been fighting for Bajoran independence ever since I was old enough to pick up a phaser. We finally drive the Cardassians out, and what do our new leaders do? They call up the Federation and invite them right in!

Benjamin Sisko:
The Federation is only here to help—

Kira Nerys:
—help us, I know. The Cardassians said the same thing sixty years ago.
