Riker:
I'm going to miss this ship; she went before her time.
Picard:
Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives.

I'm gonna miss this ship. She went before her time. Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives, but I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey, reminds us to cherish every moment because they'll never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived. After all, Number One, we're only mortal. Speak for yourself, sir. I plan to live forever. I always thought I'd get a shot at this chair one day. Perhaps you still will. Somehow, I doubt that this will be the last ship to carry the name Enterprise. Picard to Farragut. Two to beam up.
