Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Thursdays on Paramount+Joseph M'Benga Quotes
We’ve known each other for a very long time. See eye-to-eye on most things. But you haven’t lived my life. You have the privilege of believing in what’s best in people. Me? I happen to know there’s some things in this world that don’t deserve forgiveness.
M’Benga
I told you I didn’t start the fight, but I’m glad he’s dead.
M’Benga
Some things break in a way that can never be repaired. Only managed.

Dak’Rah: Look at the work that I’ve done! People need saints. They need belief. If people knew the truth, my work would be undone!
M’Benga: Your work is built on lies. And you never paid for what you did.
M’Benga: Erica! Everything all right?
Ortegas: No. The Butcher of J’Gal is in there and everyone’s acting like he’s the frickin’ Dali Lama.
Ortegas: He’s pretending. I sense it. And I don’t want to play along.
M’Benga: Sometimes, you pretend something long enough, becomes the truth. So let’s pretend the war doesn’t bother us. At least, for tonight.
Ortegas: Put on the Starfleet face?
M’Benga: It’s a good face.
Chapel: Better make that two.
M’Benga: Mine’s a double.
Chapel: Even better.
I’m just a doctor now. I prefer saving lives to taking them.
M’Benga
All of us have to remember what we love most about back home. We fight for them. We fight, hoping it doesn’t change us, hoping we don’t come home different. But if we don’t fight, we don’t win. The disease takes over, and none of us have a home to go back to.
