			We both know the Cardassians are
			a strong people... they'll
			survive... Cardassia will
			survive.

					GARAK
			Doctor, please -- spare me your
			insufferable Federation optimism.
			Of course it will survive... but
			not the Cardassia I knew. We had
			a rich and ancient culture -- our
			literature, music, art were
			second to none. And now, so much
			of it is lost... So many of our
			best people... our most gifted
			minds...

					BASHIR
			I'm sorry, Garak. I didn't
			mean..

					GARAK
				(collecting himself)
			Quite all right, doctor. You've
			been a good friend. I'm going to
			miss our lunches together.
