Quotes 

• Captain Jonathan Archer : Ever since the meld, I've felt more... centered. It's hard to explain. My whole life, I've never really understood Vulcans. Why they work so hard to suppress their emotions. Now it all seems to make sense. Next thing you know, I'll be taking up meditation.

• Commander T'Pol : Captain!

  Captain Jonathan Archer : You think I've lost my mind?

  Commander T'Pol : I'm not certain your mind is the one making these decisions.

• Captain Jonathan Archer : [referring to the Syrrannites]  I would have thought you'd be more sympathetic to their cause. You never seemed too happy with the status quo around here.

  Commander T'Pol : I may have had disagreements with the High Command. But that doesn't mean I'm going to join a radical faction.

  Captain Jonathan Archer : You signed up with Starfleet. A lot of Vulcans I have met consider *us* a radical faction.

• T'Pau : [to Archer]  You may be witnessing the start of a new era, not only for Vulcan, but for Earth as well.

  Vulcan Ambassador Soval : The Minister intends to pursue a less aggressive policy toward your people. The High Command will be dissolved.

  T'Pau : You'll no longer have us looking over your shoulder. It's time for Earth to stand on its own.

  Captain Jonathan Archer : We're ready.
