Let's go with a classic, one of the lines I've most often referenced in fivers: "Sometimes you just have to punch your way through."

Now to look up the context for that Archer quote, because I have no idea why he was being so rude...

Are you sure that wasn't Janeway talking about whipping Voyager through the twin pulsars at the end of "Scientific Method"?

Did I miss a post here? I didn't say anything about where the quote was from, but you guys are all "Are you sure it wasn't from X?"
