      it certainly is interesting to get a different perspective on humans from a race other than the vulcans. Here’s another time Quark opined on humanity, this time to Sisko (from The Jem’Hadar):

      Quark: I think I figured out why Humans don’t like Ferengi.
      Sisko: Not now, Quark.
      Quark: The way I see it, Humans used to be a lot like Ferengi: greedy, acquisitive, interested only in profit. We’re a constant reminder of a part of your past you’d like to forget.
      Sisko: Quark, we don’t have time for this.
      Quark: You’re overlooking something. Humans used to be a lot worse than the Ferengi: slavery, concentration camps, interstellar wars. We have nothing in our past that approaches that kind of barbarism. You see? We’re nothing like you… we’re better.
