"Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment — because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived." ~ Jean-Luc Picard, Star Trek: Generations
Captain Picard has countless quotable lines over the course of the franchise, of course, but this one sticks out for me personally. Especially the last line. I've struggled over the last few years with the fact that having kids simply isn't in the cards for me, and Picard's struggle with the idea of his legacy hit home for me on a recent run through of the TNG era and into Picard.
