FLASHBACK

Tuvok: I would prefer not to hear the life history of my breakfast.

Doctor: If you were human, I'd say you had a severe panic attack.
Tuvok: I'm not human.
Doctor: No kidding.

Chakotay: I've found that when you don't think about a problem, sometimes the solution comes to you.

Tuvok: It's difficult to forget when you're wearing a neurocortical monitor on your parietal bone.
Chakotay: Good point.

Tuvok: On this ship I trust you more than anyone else.
Janeway: You never brought me tea.

Sulu: I may have to give you a promotion.
Tuvok: That was not my motivation, Captain. I am not attempting to curry favor in any way.
Sulu: Mr. Tuvok, if you're going to remain on my ship you're going to have to learn how to appreciate a joke.

Sulu: Ensign, you're absolutely right...but you're also absolutely wrong. You'll find that more happens on the bridge of a starship than just carrying out orders and observing regulations. There's a sense of loyalty to the men and women you serve with... a sense of family. Those two men on trial...I served with them for a long time. I owe them my life a dozen times over. And right now, they're in trouble and I'm going to help them. Let the regulations be damned.
Tuvok: Sir, that is a most illogical line of reasoning.
Sulu: You'd better believe it.

Kim: You mean he falsified his records.
Janeway: It was a very different time, Mr. Kim. Captain Sulu, Captain Kirk, Doctor McCoy. The all belonged to a different breed of Starfleet officer. Imagine the era they lived in. The Alpha Quadrant still largely unexplored. Humanity on verge of war with Klingons. Romulans hiding behind every nebula. Even the technology we take for granted was still in its early stages. No plasma weapons, no multiphasic shields. Their ships were half as fast
Kim: No replicators. No holodecks. You know ever since I took Starfleet History at the Academy I always wondered what it would be like to live in those days.
Janeway: Space must have seemed a whole lot bigger back then. It's not surprising they had to bend the rules a little. They were a little slower to invoke the Prime Directive and a little quicker to pull their phasers. Of course, the whole bunch of them would be booted out of Starfleet today. But I have to admit, I would have loved to ride shotgun at least once with a group of officers like that.

Tuvok: Ever since I entered the Academy, I've had to endure the egocentric nature of humanity. You believe that everyone in the galaxy should be like you, that we should share your sense of humor and your humor values.

Sulu: Who the hell are you?

Janeway: We could have just asked her.
Tuvok: Asking female officers for their clothing could lead to misunderstanding.

Janeway: Mr. Tuvok, if I didn't know you better, I'd say you missed those days on the Excelsior.
Tuvok: On the contrary, I do not experience feeling of nostalgia. But there are times when I think back to those days of meeting Kirk, Spock and the others and I am pleased that I was part of it.
Janeway: In a funny way, I feel like I was a part of it too.
Tuvok: Then perhaps you can be nostalgic for both of us.

Tuvok: I suggest we conduct a tachyon sweep of the nebula. It will reveal the presence of any cloaked ships.
Chakotay: Cloaked ships?
Tuvok: Yes. We should be extremely cautious this close to Klingon space.
Torres: Tuvok, the Klingon Empire is on the other side of the galaxy.
Tuvok: Yes. Yes. You are right of course. I am uncertain as to why I'd make such an obvious error.
