"At 0800 hours, Station Time… the Romulan Empire formally declared war against the Dominion. They’ve already struck 15 bases along the Cardassian border. So, this is a huge victory for the good guys! This may even be the turning point of the entire war. There’s even a ‘Welcome to the Fight’ party tonight in the Wardroom. So… I lied. I cheated. I bribed men to cover up the crimes of other men. I am an accessory to murder. But most damning of all… I think I can live with it. And if I had to do it all over again… I would. Garak was right about one thing – a guilty conscience is a small price to pay for the safety of the Alpha Quadrant. So I will learn to live with it. Because I can live with it… I _can_ live with it.

Computer – erase that entire personal log."
