Quotes

Picard:	"You're telling me that I should just sit down, shut up, and wait."
Riker:	"Well, I wouldn't have put it quite like that."

Picard:	"Release him."
Pulaski:	"Do you know what you're doing?"
Picard:	"No. Release him."

Picard:	"A lot of questions, Number One. Damned few answers."
Riker:	"Perhaps none of it was real at all, sir."
Picard:	"Hmm, maybe. Well...they say that if you travel far enough you will eventually meet yourself. Having experienced that, Number One...it's not something I would care to repeat."
