Straight men just can't imagine the bliss of being in a relationship with someone who finds farting as funny as they do.

I always say I'd rather be miserable by myself than unhappy in a relationship.

My relationship to reality has been so utterly skewed for so long that I don't even notice it any more. It's just my reality.

I certainly wanted to maintain some sense of mystery about Picard and that's why we never allowed certain situations to fully evolve, like the relationship between Picard and Beverly Crusher.

It's like a garden: Whatever you water the most will do the best. At some point, you decide whether you'll water your career or your relationship more.
