Riker: "You do this every day?" Worf: "No, commander. Usually my calisthenics are more .. intense. Those sessions are too personal to be shared." Riker: "I'll bet they are."
	LaForge: "Like the rat said: 'Keep the cheese. I just want out of the trap.'"
	Data: "Captain, sensors show nothing out there. Absolutely nothing." LaForge: "Sure is a damn ugly 'nothing'."
	Nagilum: "I understand. The masculine and the feminine." Picard: "It is the way in which we propagate our species." Nagilum: "Please, demonstrate how it is accomplished." Pulaski: "Not likely."
	Nagilum: "To understand death, I must amass information on every aspect of it. Every kind of dying. The experiments shouldn't take more than a third of your crew, maybe half."
	[Riker has to cancel the autodestruct sequence with seconds remaining] Computer: "Riker, William T., do you concur ?" Riker: "Yes, absolutely, I do indeed concur wholeheartedly!" Computer: "Auto desctruct cancelled." Picard: "A Simple 'yes' would have sufficed, Number One."
	[to Wesley] Riker: "And Ensign, if you encounter any holes ... steer clear."
	Riker: "And if a ship sailed too far out into the ocean it would fall off the edge of the world..." Picard: "Beyond this place there be dragons."
	Data: "Our sensors are showing this to be the absence of everything. It is a void without matter or energy of any kind." Picard: "Hardly a scientific answer, Commander."
	Picard: "During this period, you too have been evaluated. It would seem we have at least one thing in common." Nagilum: "Oh?" Picard: "Curiosity." Nagilum: "The point is well taken, Captain. Perhaps that is a trait we share." Picard: "Then perhaps we'll meet again. But next time, it will be out here among the stars."
