Picard: But this is not the present I remember. You said nothing would change.

 

[Athena28]

Q: Nothing has changed, Jean-Luc, except for you. But then again that's what you wanted, wasn't it? To change the man you were in your youth? Well, you did it. This is the man you are today.

You have a real heart beating in your chest and you get to live out the rest of your life in safety: running tests, making analyses, and carrying reports to your superiors.
