Quotes

Anthwara : It is always good to understand one's adversary, in any negotiation.
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : I hope that by the end of this matter, you will no longer look on me as an adversary.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Anthwara believes that I am responsible for the crimes of one of my ancestors against his people.
Commander William T. Riker : Do you believe that?
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : No, of course not. I respect his belief; but I do not see how it can have any bearing on this mission. But even so, I can't help wondering... if a... dark chapter in my family's history is about to be repeated.

[Picard and Anthwara are talking about the latter's grandfather's emigration from Earth]
Captain Jean-Luc Picard : It's never easy to leave one's home - the safe and the familiar. But there are times when... the greater good demands that certain... sacrifices are made. I'm sure that was something that your grandfather understood.
Anthwara : So does his grandson. There are also times when a people sacrificed too much. When a people must hold on to what we have, even against overwhelming opposition.
