Quotations

[Picard toasts Riker and Troi] Will Riker, you have been my trusted right arm for fifteen years. You have kept my course true and steady. Deanna Troi, you've been my guide and my conscience. You have helped me recognize the better parts of myself. You are my family. And in best maritime tradition, I wish you both clear horizons. My good friends... make it so.

[while being shot at during a car chase] I think it's time to try some unsafe velocities!

[near a replicator] Tea, Earl Grey, hot.

[seeing the Scimitar (Star Trek)|Scimitar for the first time. With awe] She's a predator...

If there is one ideal that the Federation holds most dear it is that all men... all races can be united. What better example than a Starfleet captain standing in the Romulan Senate. Nothing would make me more proud than to take your hand in friendship... in time... when that trust has been earned.

[voiceover] Captain's Personal Log. The crew has responded with the dedication I've come to expect of them... And like a thousand other commanders on a thousand other battlefields, I wait for the dawn.

I will always be puzzled by the human predilection for piloting vehicles at unsafe velocities.

[last word] Good-bye.

[to Donatra] If you ever touch me again... I'll kill you.

Tea, hot.
