Captain Jean-Luc Picard: [Quoting "Moby Dick"] And he piled upon the whale's white hump, the sum of all the rage and hate felt by his whole race. If his chest had been a cannon, he would have shot his heart upon it.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard: We are not going to lose the Enterprise. Not to the Borg. Not while I'm in command.
Cmdr. Deanna Troi: [very drunk] Look. He wouldn't even talk to me unless I had a drink with him. And then, it took three shots of something called "tequila" just to find out that HE was the one we're looking for! And I've spent the last twenty minute...
Lieutenant Commander Data: [about the Borg Queen] She brought me closer to humanity than I ever thought possible. And for a time, I was tempted by her offer. Captain Jean-Luc Picard: How long a time? Lieutenant Commander Data: 0.68 seconds sir. For a...
Lt. Commander Worf: The Defiant? Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Adrift but salvageable. Cmdr. William Riker: Tough little ship. Lt. Commander Worf: Little?

Cmdr. William Riker: We finished our first sensor sweep of the neutral zone. Captain Jean-Luc Picard: Oh, fascinating. Twenty particles of space dust per cubic meter, 52 ultraviolet radiation spikes, and a class-2 comet. Well, this is certainly worth...
Dr. Zefram Cochrane: A group of cybernetic creatures from the future have traveled back through time to enslave the human race... and you're here to stop them? Cmdr. William Riker: That's right. Dr. Zefram Cochrane: Hot damn! You're heroic.

Lt. Commander Worf: [before blasting some Borg] Assimilate this!
Captain Jean-Luc Picard: You want to destroy the ship and run away, you coward. Lt. Commander Worf: If you were any other man, I would kill you where you stand.
