Picard stands at a window in Ten Forward, staring out at the stars in contemplation.
Picard
(with quiet intensity)
All visible objects are but pasteboard masks. If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall? To me, the Borg ship is that wall, shoved near to me. Sometimes I think there’s naught beyond, but ‘tis enough. I see in the Borg outrageous strength with an inscrutable malice sinewing it. That inscrutable thing is chiefly what I hate, and be the Borg agent, or be they principal, I will wreak that hate upon them!
