Well, you may not trust me, but you do need me. You’re not prepared for what awaits you.

Doesn’t it taste good?

It’s two days before your unfortunate encounter with a Nausicaan sword. You have that long to make whatever changes you wish. If you can avoid getting stabbed through the heart this time, which I doubt, I will take you back to what you think of as the present. And you can go on with your life with a real heart.

Mark my words, Picard, this is your Achilles heel.

“I did [think that Q was gay] […] John [de Lancie], whose work was brilliant on the show, had a kind of boldness about him, a way of looking at Picard that was provocative. And yes, there was the scene in the bed - although we didn’t make that up. That was written, so we’ve got to commend the writers for that.” - Sir Patrick Stewart (x)

Someone once told me that time is a predator that stalks us all our lives but I rather believe that time is a companion that goes with us on a journey and reminds us to cherish every moment… because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we’ve lived.
