Spoilers Favorite "Picard" Lines

[Lord Garth]

I've got a few right off the top of my head.

"I haven't been living. I've been waiting to die."

"Science-fiction. I just don't get it!"
I thought it was priceless as an ironic little nudge-nudge, wink-wink.

 

[Anduinel]

"Are you going to assimilate me now?"

EE and Ryan just nailed the timing and expressions.

 

[dinnae ken]

Headcanon:
"Stop claw-machining my eye-hole! Just pluck out my other eye so I don't have see your Joker-grin!" — Icheb.

Canon:
"No-one gets all of it right." — Rios in "The Impossible Box", to console Raffi, shattered by her son's rejection. Poignant and gentle.

 

[Cyrus]

Jurati: I never slept with a Captain before.
Rios: I recommend it.

 

[Turtletrekker]

"Picard, with all due respect, and at long last, shut the fuck up."

 

[ThreeEdgedSword]

Well, it's already a classic, so:
"The sheer fucking hubris!"

Also:
Seven: After they brought you back from your time in the Collective … did you honestly feel that you regained your humanity?
Picard: Yes.
Seven: All of it?
Picard: No. But we’re both working on it, aren’t we?
Seven: Every damn day of my life.

 

[Makarov]

"Engage" - Picard

 

[Turtletrekker]

The only "make it so" we got this season came from Agnes.

 

[WarpFactorZ]

"I'm supposed to sit around in the woods making pizza while you have all the fun?"

 

[Precious Tritium]

In terms of pure villainy.

“Sad Queen Annika. Six years old and all she got for her birthday was assimilated.”

 

[Sir Stewart Wallace]

Narissa getting the shaft: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

 

[Cyrus]

Narek (to Elnor): I very much choose to live.

 

[The Old Mixer]

The future is left for us to write. And we have powerful tools...openness, optimism, and the spirit of curiosity. All they have is secrecy and fear, and fear is the great destroyer.

 

[Ovation]

“I have no choice” is a failure of imagination. (Or something like that)

 

[bookworm8571]

Elnor: I don’t know how to be anybody but Elnor.
Picard: Then be Elnor.
Seven: An Elnor who never talks.

 

[Kilana2]

Jurati: Make it so!

 

[Greg Cox]

"Does anybody think the Way of Absolute Candor sounds kinda annoying?"

"Every damn day of my life."

"Cheeky feckers."

 

[Kirby]

It’s possible I miss heard the line, but when Picard was with Hugh on the cube:

Random former drone: Locutus?
Picard: Not now! (Or something to that affect)

 

[ThreeEdgedSword]

Good riddance to Narek & Narissa (I wish), but they had one good line each:

Narek: Oh, I very much choose to live!

Narissa: Six years old, and all you got for your birthday was assimilated!

 

[Spock Must Diet!]

"To say you have no choice is a failure of imagination."
"Fear is an incompetent teacher."
