Worf: "I've always
found the Blaxian night the most stimulating experience."
Troi: "Worf! We were walking bare-foot on the
beach, with balalaika music in the air. Ocean breeze
washing over us. Stars in the sky, a full-moon rising. And
the most you can say is 'stimulating'?"
Worf: "It was .. VERY stimulating." |

Geordi: "Captain Picard to the bridge. Captain,
we've got a problem with the warp core, or the phase
inducers or some other damn thing." |

Jessel:
"How do ya like ya tea?"
Picard: "Tea? Earl Grey, hot."
Jessel: "Of course it's hot! What do you want in
it?"
Picard: "Nothing!" |
|
|
|
Picard:
"She served it as Earl Grey. I could swear it's
Darjeeling." |

O'Brien:
"We'll all be burning a midnight-oil on this one."
Data: "That would be inadvisable."
O'Brien:
"Excuse me?"
Data: "If you intend to ignite a petrolium product
on this ship at zero-hundred hours, you will activate the
fire suppression system, which would seal off this entire
compartment."
O'Brien:
"That was just an expression."
Data: "Expression of what?" |

Worf:
"What is a Q?"
Yar: "It's a letter in alphabet as far as I know." |
|
|
|
Q:
[to Picard] "It's time to put an end to your trek
through the stars, make room for other more worthy
species." |
|
|
|
Picard:
"Tea. Earl Grey. Hot."
Computer: "That beverage has not been programmed
into the replication system." |
|
|
|
Q:
[to Picard] "Don't you recognize your old stomping
grounds? This is Earth, France. About, oh, 3 and a half
billion years ago, give or take an eon or two. Smells
awful, doesn't it? All that sulfur and volcanic ash.
Really must speak to the maid." |
|
|
|
Q:
[to Picard] "Goodbye, Jean-Luc. I'm gonna miss you.
You had such a good potential, but then again, all good
things must come to an end." |
|
|
|
Q:
"Seven years ago I said we'd be watching you. And we have
been. Hoping your ape-like race would demonstrate some
growth... give some indication that your minds have room
for expansion. And what have we seen instead? You spending
time worrying about Commander Riker's career... listening
to Counselor Troi's pedantic psychobabble... indulging
Data in his witless exploration of humanity..."
Picard: "We have journeyed to countless new
worlds... made contact with new species... expanded man's
understanding of the universe..."
Q: "In your own paltry, limited way. You have no
idea how far you still have to go."
Picard: "We are what we are, Q -- and we're doing
the best we can. It's not for you to set the standard by
which we're judged." |

Picard:
"I should have done this a long time ago. I was quite a
card player in my youth, you know."
Troi: "You were always welcome."
Picard: "So. Five card stud, nothing wild. The
sky's the limit." |
