• [last lines] 

  Tarmin : It's been three centuries since we treated anyone for this... this form of rape. But there are medical records from that era. It was a time of great violence for my people, a time we thought we had put far behind us. That this could happen now... It's unimaginable.

  Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Earth was once a violent planet, too. At times, the chaos threatened the very fabric of life, but, like you, we evolved; we found better ways to handle our conflicts. But I think no one can deny that the seed of violence remains within each of us. We must recognize that. Because that violence is capable of consuming each of us, as it consumed your son.

• Tarmin : [to Dr. Crusher]  You, madam - you're thinking about that first childhood kiss. Would you like to remember more about it?

  Jev : Father, you know you're not supposed to probe someone's memory unless they've given you permission.

  Tarmin : You are right. But sometimes, with a beautiful woman... I cannot help myself.

• Tarmin : I've been accused of putting people to sleep with one too many stories, Captain. But this is the first time it's ever been suggested that I might be the cause of someone's coma.
