Mine is from an early 2000s film called Vanilla Sky.

        There. Are. FOUR LIGHTS!! Also Jean Luc. Anytime I’m telling my SO there are 4 of something. This is probably why we can’t keep friends.

      Lieutenant Worf : [referring to Admiral Satie] I believed her. I, I helped her. I did not see what she was.

      Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Mister Worf, villains who twirl their moustaches are easy to spot. Those who clothe themselves in good deeds are well camouflaged.

      Lieutenant Worf : I think… after yesterday, people will not be so ready to trust her.

      Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Maybe. But she, or someone like her, will always be with us, waiting for the right climate in which to flourish, spreading fear in the name of righteousness. Vigilance, Mister Worf - that is the price we have to continually pay.

      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.
