Jurati: You all right, mister?
Picard: Just having memories of things that have yet to occur.

Picard: I'm counting on you, Agnes. We all are.
Jurati: Peachy. Have you met in a pinch?

Poor Agnes Jurati, doomed to be the afterthought, left behind again. Not to me. You're more than you let on, that they can see. Smart, cunning, and remarkably more cruel than I could've predicted. Brava.

Borg queen

Guinan: You're a lot older than my usual thieves. Haven't settled into retirement yet?
Picard: Believe me, I am trying. But it turns out that afternoon naps and jigsaw puzzles are not quite my speed.

Raffi: I hate everything.
Seven: But you hide it so well.

Why does the past hurt so much?

Rios

Guinan: This place is a pressure cooker. You know they're actually killing the planet? Truth is whatever you want it to be. Facts aren't even facts anymore. A few folks have enough resources to fix all the problems for the rest but they won't because their greatest fear is having less. They got one tiny ball in the entire galaxy, and all this species want to do is fight. I've given them long enough.
Picard: It's not too late. The problem isn't time, it's you.

Distance offers no protection from time.

Picard

We need to find out where they're disappearing people like him, so we follow the trail of suffering like breadcrumbs.

Raffi

Seven: Just so I'm clear, are you suggesting we steal a vehicle from the same people whose job it is to prosecute theft?
Raffi: We need a way to find Rios and get back to fixing the timeline. See, my idea is to steal the computer inside. Better?
Seven: Not better. NOT BETTER! Raffi, what the hell happened to 'no phasers'?
Raffi: I have no idea how this got here.

Raffi, right now your brains are in your fists.

Seven

Raffi: Seven, just get around them. Get around them!
Seven: You think I'm not trying?
Raffi: The bus was faster.
Seven: Right, maybe you should get back on it.
Raffi: Uh, truck. Truck! TRUCK!
