Doctor Renée Picard

"You're Renée Picard, astronaut of the Europa Mission. You must be capable of such great things to have come this far."

"You remind me a bit of my mother. She, too, loved the stars. And she, too... struggled."

"Sometimes fear is a friendly reminder you're not ready for something."

"No. Fear is fear. It doesn't speak in riddles. Fear means you're smart. You understand the risks."

"So, what are you afraid of?"

"I don't know where I would begin."

"And you found a way to live with it?"

"I found that even in the darkest circumstances, there is a light. Sometimes, only a glimmer. Trust that light. Find a way back, no matter what it takes."

"Your mother... was very lucky to have you."

"Did you know that space is so vast, so infinite, it takes billions of years for that tiny pinprick of light to make that lonely journey from its star to our eyes? The brilliance you see in the night sky, Jean-Luc, that exquisite light, it's just an echo, really, of a star that has long since faded. Like me."
