Captain Jean-Luc Picard:
[on the Crystalline Entity] If we can determine what its needs are, we might find other sources to supply it.
Dr. Kila Marr:
Its needs are to slaughter people by the thousands. It is nothing but a giant killing machine!
Captain Jean-Luc Picard:
Doctor, the sperm whale on Earth devours millions of cuttlefish as it roams the oceans. It is not evil; it is feeding. The same may be true of the Entity.
Dr. Kila Marr:
That would be small comfort for those who have died to feed it. We're not talking about cuttlefish; we're talking about people!
Captain Jean-Luc Picard:
I would argue that the Crystalline Entity has as much right to be here as we do.
