Picard is a real quote machine. The one closest to my heart is:

Captain Jean-Luc Picard : There's no greater challenge than the study of philosophy.

Wesley Crusher : But William James won't be on my Starfleet exams.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard : The important things never will be. Anyone can be trained in the mechanics of piloting a starship.

Wesley Crusher : And Starfleet Academy...

Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Takes more. Open your mind to the past - art, history, philosophy. And all this may mean something.
