Introducing My Favorite Picard Quotes

I've been watching some of Captain Picard's "best" quotes and speeches on youtube lately. Nothing extravagant has happened because of that, I just kind of want to start a blog series now where I analyze one Picard quote per post. Wow, that sounds really lame when put into words. It's cooler in my head. That's true for most things though. :)

Anyway, I just like talking about Star Trek, especially Captain Picard because he's one of my favorite characters, especially as I get older and I can better appreciate what he's saying. In this world of pessimism and impure ideals, it's refreshing to me to hear about people who don't fall prey to it - even if they are fictional. As far as fictional characters go, Captain Picard is one that I think I would look up to most if he were real. He's one of the most honorable and consistently decent characters television has ever seen. So, I guess I want to share some of my favorite quotes to prove it. I have no idea how many posts there will be or how long I'll do it. They may not even all be consecutive. I may blog about other things for awhile and then come back to Picard quotes. You never know.

I'm not going to start right now though. My sisters' birthday party will soon begin, so this will have to wait. Also, I don't know which quote I would like to start on. I would like to be able to show the clip from the show that has the quote I would talk about, but that'll only happen if I can find it on youtube. I'm not technologically skilled enough to do it any other way. We'll see how that works out.

In the mean time, here's a video I did find on youtube of a bunch of Picard quotes to give you an idea of what's going to come. Hee hee!
