Quotes 

• Zani : A promise is a prison, Elnor. Do not make yourself another's jailer.

  Jean-Luc Picard : And that reminds me, Zani, last time I made you a promise that I would try and find some sweet hanifak. But I totally forgot that promises were prisons, so...

• Zani : You're not too late to rescue Elnor. He does not belong here. Once the evacuation ended, we simply never found a better home for him.

  Jean-Luc Picard : He completed his training?

  Zani : Last spring.

  Jean-Luc Picard : So he really is a Qowat Milat?

  Zani : No, and as a man, he never can be. But he is open-hearted, and apart from this display of the reticence you always seemed to inspire in him, forthright. And his fighting skills are truly formidable.

  Jean-Luc Picard : And you would send him away? He might find himself in serious danger. He might die.

  Zani : He will. Before that comes to pass, it would gladden my heart to see him live.

• Zani : You got old, Admiral Picard.

  Jean-Luc Picard : You didn't.

  Zani : I remind you that this is a house of truth.

• Zani : You're making the admiral uncomfortable, Elnor. He dislikes displays of emotion, and he's not overly fond of children.

• Zani : Because you could not save everyone, you chose to save no one.
