[to Wesley]
Salia
: "That's a super-conducting magnet, isn't it?"
   
[to Wesley]
Riker
: "Now, I don't know if she'll have time for you, Wes. She's destined to rule an entire world."
   
[to Riker]
Worf
: [on Salia] "Do not be fooled by her looks. The body is just a shell."
   
LaForge: "I suppose it had to happen to you, it usually does at about this age."
Wesley: "What usually does?"
LaForge: "Glands, erupting with hormones. Happens to all of us."
   
Worf: [bellows a huge Klingon scream] "That is how a Klingon lures a mate."
Wesley: "Are you telling me to go to yell at Salia?"
Worf: "No. Men do not roar. Women roar. Then they hurl heavy objects. And claw at you."
Wesley: "What does the man do?"
Worf: "He reads love poetry. .. He ducks a lot."
Wesley: "Worf, it sounds like it works great for the Klingons, but .. I think I need to try something little less .. dangerous?"
Worf: "Go to her door, beg like a human."
   
Data: "It should be that simple, Wesley. Judging by her appearance, it is likely you and Salia are biologically compatible. Of course, there could be a difference in the histocompatibility complex in the cell membrane, but--"
Wesley: "Data, I want to meet her, not dissect her."
   
Riker: "Now, the first words out of your mouth are the most important. You may want to start with something like this here." [to Guinan] "You are the most beautiful woman in the galaxy." [to Wesley, after silence from Guinan] "But that might not work."
Guinan: "Yes! Yes, it would."
   
[to Wesley]
Guinan
: "Just because a girl runs out doesn't mean she doesn't wish you to follow."
   
Wesley: "I'm never going to feel this way about anyone else."
Guinan: "You're right."
Wesley: "I didn't expect you to say that."
Guinan: "There'll be others. But every time you feel love it will be different. Every time it's different."
Wesley: "Knowing that doesn't make it any easier."
Guinan: "It's not supposed to."
   
Riker: "You don't know how long I've wanted to tell you that."
Guinan: "But you were afraid."
Riker: "Yes."
Guinan: "Of me?"
Riker: "Of us. Of what we might become."
   
Riker: "Or that you might think it was a lie."
Guinan: "Maybe I do think it's a lie."
Riker: "Then you think I'm not sincere."
Guinan: "I didn't say that. There's nothing wrong with a lie. It's like knocking at the door."
Riker: "Then you're inviting me in?"
Guinan: "I'm not sending you away."
Riker: "That's more than I expected."
Guinan: "Is it as much as you hoped?"
Riker: "To hope is to recognize the possibility. I had only dreams."
Guinan: "Dreams can be dangerous."
Riker: "Not these dreams. I dream of a galaxy where your eyes are the stars, and the universe worships the night."
Guinan: "Careful! Putting me on a pedestal so high, you might not be able to reach me."
Riker: "Then I'll learn how to fly. You are the heart of my day, and the soul of my night."
   
[to Wesley]
Guinan: "Shut up kid." [then looks at Riker] "Now, tell me more about...my eyes?"
   
[to a horrified Pulaski]
Anya: "I cannot rely on your primitive technology. Kill the patient."
