Quotes
-
Joleg : After you're convicted, the family of the victim sentences you.
Neelix : Well, shouldn't you be sentenced by someone less partial, like a judge?
Joleg : Vekto valek k'vadim. It's ancient Nygean; it means 'favor the victims.' What if... I stole your game board? What right would a judge have to assign a value to your loss? To him, it's just a game board, but to you it might be a priceless family possession. And what if I murdered your child?
Neelix : I think I get your point.
