Quotes 

• Nathan Samuels : Having endured a catastrophic world war, Earth's governments came to this city for the purpose of creating a just and lasting peace among nations. Today, we have assembled here again representatives of numerous worlds to forge an unprecedented alliance. With this coalition of planets, we seek to strengthen our bonds of friendship, render permanent the peace that now exists among us for the ongoing exploration of our galaxy. Let us dedicate ourselves to these worthy goals so that future generations can look back upon this moment with pride and eternal gratitude. Thank you.

• Commander T'Pol : You've set a formidable goal. The drafting of a charter in six weeks?

  Nathan Samuels : I've always believed that formidable goals produce formidable results.

• Nathan Samuels : These universal translators work perfectly, thanks to you.

  Ensign Hoshi Sato : I just updated them with a few things we picked up on the mission.

  Nathan Samuels : Whatever you did, they're extremely precise. Though, when I'm listening to the Tellarite ambassador, I wish they were just a little less precise.

• [Archer has found out that Samuels was once a member of Terra Prime] 

  Nathan Samuels : I was very young when I joined Terra Prime.

  Captain Jonathan Archer : You were eighteen.

  Nathan Samuels : Didn't you make any questionable choices when you were that age, Captain? It was a stupid mistake. I was a fool. My father had died in a freighter accident, and I blamed the pilot who happened to be Denobulan. We all have our demons. I've exorcized mine.

• Nathan Samuels : I underestimated you. I suppose I'm not the first person to make that mistake.
