Generations Line-by-Line

KIRK: This is my uncles barn in Idaho...I took this horse out for a ride 11 years ago on a spring day, like this one. If I'm right this is the day I met Antonia. This Nexus of yours...very clever. I can start all over again and do things right from day one.
 
After some riding and jumping,

KIRK continues: I must have jumped that fifty times. Scared the hell out of me. Except this time. Because it isn't real.

then,

PICARD: Antonia?
 
KIRK continues: I must have jumped that fifty times. Scared the hell out of me each time. Except this time. Because it isn't real.
then,
PICARD: Antonia?
KIRK: She isn't real either is she?...Nothing here is. Nothing here matters. Maybe it's not about an empty house,..maybe it's about that empty chair on the bridge of the Enterprise. Ever since I left Starfleet I haven't made a difference....(directs horse sideways to Picards)....Captain of the Enterprise?
 
Kirk: Well let me tell you something; don't. Don't let them promote you, don't let them transfer you, don't let them do anything that takes you off the bridge of that ship, because while you're there... you can make a difference.
 
KIRK: You know if Spock were here he'd say that I was an irrational, illogical human being for taking on a mission like that..... Sounds like fun!
 
PICARD: He's James T. Kirk. Don't you read history? ...I've got to get to the launcher. The ribbon will be here in a minute.
