DS9 Intro page

Kira: I suppose you want the office.
Sisko: Well, I thought I say hello first and then take the office, but we can do it in any order you like.
Kira: Hello.
Emissary

Sisko to Kira: Go over my head again, and I'll have yours on a platter.
Past Prologue

Jake: Dad, I'm fourteen.
Sisko: I'm glad we agree on something. Go to bed.
Move Along Home

Jake, trying to get out of his homework: Just because you suffered through all that doesn't mean I have to!
Sisko: Yes it does.
The Alternate

Garak: Commander, this is extortion.
Sisko: Hmm... yes, it is.
Second Skin

Sisko: And take those phasers off stun, Chief. No more Mr Nice Guy.
Playing God

Jake: I wanted to tell you, but I was afraid you wouldn't understand.
Sisko: So now you're hiding things from me?
Jake: You mean you would have understood?
Sisko: Of course not.
Playing God

Bashir: Try not to yell at any more Admirals for a while.
Sisko: I wasn't "yelling." I was just expressing my opinion loudly.
The Wire

Sisko: If the Dominion comes through the wormhole, the first battle will be fought here. And I intend to be ready for them.
The Jem'Hadar

Sisko: You don't like beets, Doctor?
Bashir: Well, they're not exactly a personal favourite of mine.
Sisko: That's because you haven't had them prepared properly. Beets are a very misunderstood vegetable.
Bashir: Well, I look forward to understanding them better.
Equilibrium

DC: I thought we were on the same side here!
Sisko: We are, but you get on my nerves, and I don't like your hat. Now put the gun down.
Past Tense

Kira: Well, now that you have another pip on your collar, does that mean I can't disagree with you anymore?
Sisko: No. It just means I'm never wrong.
Adversary

Kassidy: Don't get killed.
Sisko: I'll do my best.
The Way of the Warrior

Weyoun: Captain Benjamin Sisko. Your psychological profile is required reading for Vorta Field Supervisors. I probably know things about you that you don't know yourself.
Sisko: If you're trying to impress me, you can forget it.
Weyoun: What would you say if I offered to make you absolute ruler of the Federation? No President, no Starfleet Chief of Staff, just you.
Sisko: I'd say your psychological profile of me isn't as good as you think.
To the Death

Sisko to Jake: It takes courage to look inside yourself, and even more courage to write it for others to see. I'm proud of you, son.
Nor the Battle to the Strong

Sisko: Wait til your son moves out on you!
Jake: I don't have a son.
The Ascent

Ducat: That space station you're so fond of was built by Cardassia.
Sisko: Funny. I thought it was built by Bajoran slave labour.
By Inferno's Light

Sisko: Still calling yourself "Gul"? I'm surprised you haven't promoted yourself back to Legate by now.
Ducat: I prefer the title "Gul." So much more hands-on than Legate, hmmm? And less pretentious than the other alternatives - President, Emperor, First Minister, Emissary...
Sisko: How about "Dominion Puppet"?
Ties of Blood and Water

Sisko: No victory can make this moment any easier for me, and I promise I will not rest until I stand with you again here, in this place where I belong.
Call to Arms

Sisko: One thing is certain: we're losing the peace. Which means a war could be our only hope.
Call to Arms

Weyoun: What is that?
Ducat, holding Sisko's baseball: A message from Sisko.
Weyoun: I don't understand.
Ducat: He's letting me know he'll be back.
Call to Arms
