But the very best commander of all was Captain Benjamin Lafayette Sisko was the best of the bunch! The man knew when you had to color outside the lines and by just how much!

Captain Sisko: So... I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But the most damning thing of all... I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again - I would. Garak was right about one thing: a guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha Quadrant. So I will learn to live with it... Because I can live with it... I can live with it... Computer - erase that entire personal log.

Q:"You hit me... Picard never hit me."
Sisko:"I'm not Picard."

DS-9 was definitely the most cerebral of the star trek series.

Voyager in my opinion was most socialist of the series. I remember a scene where Torres and Paris were hiding to eat meat because real meat was illegal. The explanation of Tom Paris being accused of murder as a cadet. The murderer had to be Starfleet because only Starfleet has weapons.

Sisko was really good and did a lot to make DS9 watchable. Odo was entertaining as well as Quark sometimes.

Decking Q was one of the few good Sisko moments until Season 5. When he went off on vacation, encountered a late 20th Century TV series called “Spencer for Hire” and got so inspired by Hawk that he shaved his head, grew a goatee, and returned to the station fully manned-up and with the only warship Starfleet ever tried to build

“In The Pale Moonlight”

Possibly my favorite DS9 episode.
