#Ezri Dax

The Klingon Empire is dying and I think it deserves to die. […] I see a society that is in deep denial about itself. We’re talking about a warrior culture that prides itself on maintaining centuries-old traditions of honor and integrity but, in reality, it’s willing to accept corruption at the highest levels. […]Who was the last leader of the High Council that you respected? Has there even been one? And how many times have you had to cover up the crimes of Klingon leaders because you were told that it was for the good of the Empire? I know this sounds harsh, but the truth is you have been willing to accept a government that you know is corrupt. Gowron is just the latest example. Worf, you are the most honorable and decent man that I have ever met and if you are willing to tolerate men like Gowron then what hope is there for the Empire?
