Bringing back an old game - Name the TrekLit Quote

No, and no.

It is from a TNG book, though.

 

Boogeyman?

 

It's a more recent TNG novel, from the 20th Anniversary releases.

 

That helps.

Is it The Buried Age?

 

Nope.

It does involve Beverly Crusher, and it is part of the TNG 20th Anniversary releases. Chronologically it happens after The Buried Age but before The Child (TNG Second Season Episode)

 

"Acts of Compassion" from The Sky's the Limit

 

Nailed it in one.

But who said it?

 

That's not a novel.

Is it from Crucible?

Because I think it could also be from Vanguard: Reap The Whirlwind..

 

That would be my guess as well.

 

Unless...

Imzadi?

 

Nope.
Clue #1: it's a 24th century series.

 

Hmm... It's not from the A Time to... series, is it?

 

I would have posted an excerpt but my internet went down and then I was off sick.

I'll keep my excerpt in reserve.

No guesses for this one, I have no clue.

 

One more clue and if noone gets it I'll go ahead and give the answer.
It's from a DS9.
