“- Jean-Luc Picard: If I may, just a word of advice about your first command?
- William Riker: Anything.

“I'm trying to believe you, Shinzon. If there is one ideal that the Federation holds most dear, it is that all men, all races can be united. What better example? A Starfleet captain, standing in the Romulan Senate. Nothing would make me more proud than to take your hand in friendship, in time... when that trust has been earned.”
Sir Patrick Stewart - Jean-Luc Picard

“- James T. Kirk: I take it the odds are against us and the situation is grim?

Sir Patrick Stewart - Jean-Luc Picard
