"Fear is good when it warns and bad when it masters"
-Uncle Bill [Ecounter Near Venus, Leonard Wibberley]
If I looked in the mirror and just saw myself, I would have a very ordinary feeling about the day, but starting the day with this thing and the world it creates- the aura and mystery in the eyes and the head- it makes it possible to say those words, because I'm hidden behind the mask so I can feel those feelings and no one will be ashamed of me and I won't be ashamed of myself. I can be poetic of need be. Or I can be everything I might be afraid to be or ashamed to be in life."
-Andreas Katsulas ["Babylon's Brothers," Sci-Fi Universe Magazine- August 1998]

"I understand your meaning, and I would say yes -- Kate Mulgrew is becoming increasingly more difficult to play, because it's becoming such a complex life . . . Sometimes it's easier to slip into the skin of another character. But I think I'm very well grounded, and I have no delusions of grandeur. I think this is a marvelous chapter in mylife, and it will end. Then there will be another chapter, which will be different, and then I'm going to be old-- and I hope gracious and wise and loving and kind. So as long as I can sort of keep myself in balance, I think everything will be alright."
-Kate Mulgrew ["The Captain Who Almost Wasn't," Sci-Fi Universe Magazine- August 1998]

"This is Captain Janeway. I've never liked saying goodbye, so I'll make this brief; but I want you all to know that serving as your captain has been the most extroardinary experience of my life. No captain could ask more than what this crew has give: bravery, compassion, strength of character. But I think what I'll miss most is the fun, the times we joked together, the games on the holodeck. I;ll remember the laughter more than anything. Although Commander Chakotay and I won't be with you for the rest of your journey, we know you'll be the same steadfast crew for Mister Tuvok as you have been for us. We wish you a safe and speedy journey home. Our thoughts will be with you. Janeway out."

"Her sudden surrender to her tears surprised him, but without giving it a second thought, he gathered her up and pulled her against him. She closed her arms around his neck and wept against his shoulder, and he found himself weeping with her -- for her. And he remembered how she had held him when he'd wept, how right it had felt, how much it had comforted him,how it had seemed like the light seeping into the darkened chambers of his heart. That, more than her heroics . . . had probably saved his life."

-Peter Jurasik ["Baylon's Brothers," Sci-Fi Universe - August 1998]

- Captain Janeway [2 hour Voyager movie special (title unknown), ST Voyager]
"Next season, Mulgrew would like the writers to explore more of what she says is the lonliness of command for Janeway.
'I think it's very important that they address her humanity, as well as her sexuality at this point and time. I was less vigorous in my approach to this problem, or this question, because, in the beginning I was pretty dedicated to Janeway's instituting of her command. But now that that's been established, I think it's very important that we not forget she's a woman. I think she needs to resolve her relationship with Chakotay and define it, to put the veiwers at ease, as well as herself and her First Officer. My greatest wish would be that they would have a continence and a depth, an intimacy without erotic overtones, I think the writers need to address that.'"
- Excerpt from "The Captain Who Almost Wasn't" [Sci-Fi Universe Magazine, August 1998]

And yet in the blackness you see the suns of the universe, beautiful, brilliant, and distant, scintillating all about you and lovlier than any sights Earth has to offer. So what you call space we call the Dark Field of Lights."
