The most powerful line to me, is also the most simple.
There are 4 lights
@oneraceonedestiny
Hence. "To me" not across the board.
Not in general.
The most powerful line to me. One must think about the moral intentions behind the line
@oneraceonedestiny
I think I may have missed something, I replied by mistake I think? My first reply was made from my hospital bed. I'm leaving now. I think I may have been a bit confused. Or possibly short tempered. Or just not paying attention. Sorry if I made something out of nothing?
@oneraceonedestiny thank you
"i've no idea where you got such pedestrian genes"
We must protect the Enterprise-C until she enters the temporal rift. And we must succeed! Let's make sure history never forgets… the name… Enterprise.
We need a spin off of Star Trek Picard called "Sir Patrick Stewart Tells Stories About Literally Anything and You'll Listen Cause It's Awesome"
Lol
I would definitely watch it!
Better watch James May assembling toy trains. 😉
1000% yes.
Unknown Shakespearean actor?
Me, an art teacher, to my students: The line must be drawn HERE! This far, no farther!
If you like, think of these times as Man's Pre Star Trek Moment -- complete with our own Q. Mankind either ends war now, thus paving the way for a marvelous, worldwide civilization, or men are forever forbidden from the stars -- perhaps, even our souls, bound to Earth.
Q, just a Q-wizical as ever, says, "I don't believe men have souls. If they do, it's barely discernible. This time, Jean-Luc, it's not up to you and your crew to save the day. It's up to them!"
@@humboldthammer what in Qonos are you talking about?
@@CrownRock1 Never mind.
And that's how Sir Patrick Stewart became the most British Frenchman who ever lived.
He's such a great actor we all just ignored it
Jean-Luc stands for Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John -- but religion had evolved a lot by the 24th Century.
and that is how Stewart pissed away his entire carere
Amazing human being and I’m so grateful he played my favorite character in a fictional universe, Captain Picard!
Or non-fictional, perhaps.
@petulant perhaps, perhaps not. Have you any proof of this?
@@vic5015 I'm not sure that any evidence is required, per se. Patrick Stewart himself has said on many occasions that, _in his own opinion,_ he was something of an asshole during the early days of TNG (I'm paraphrasing of course), rubbed several people up the wrong way and took longer than perhaps he ought to (again, his opinion) to wind his neck in, put his ego to one side and show some basic manners. In short, he used to be a dick head.
Thankfully, he learned his lesson many years ago. The people who work with him these days get on with him like a house on fire, and I believe he's been something of a mentor to some of the younger actors.
That is what make our grandparent's generation the greatest generation ever. Most people from our grand parent's generation are really humble, despite they are nearly all really wise, they still remain extremely humble. Our parent's generation on the other hand is insanely arrogant and that is why they screw up. Despite there is a saying "Age come with wisdom" the thing is that "Age doesn't guarantee wisdom and doesn't provide you with infinite wisdom" this is because (1) Despite they say practice make perfect, some people can perfect a task after only practice 3 times, other practice 10 times and still don't get it. (2) It is like when you play a computer game, everytime you complete a quest, you get experience point, but you can't get unlimited experience point, the same with age, live for 40 years, 50 years or 60 years, only mean 40, 50 or 60 experience point not unlimited experience point (3)there are certain thing you can only learn via practice and experience, but there are other thing only can be learn by training, education or research. Our grand parent's generation understand this, but our parents generation doesn't understand it. A lot of people from our parent's generation they think they got unlimited experience point and think they are experts on topic they know nothing about (because those are things they can't know via practice or experience but require training, education or research and they got no training, education or research on the topic) for example, when George Bush Junior side line all experts on the Middle East and replace them with a bunch of head nodding yes man, when himself also know nothing about the middle east. As a result, our grand parent's generation are all really wise, because for their whole life, they are always learning new skills and then practicing what they learn and humble to ask for advice when they come across topic they know nothing about and by doing so, they gain new skill sets and absorb what other people learn through their experience to become their own, as a result, by the time they reach old age, they are all insanely wise. Our parents generation all they do is go around screaming "I ain't 40 years old for shit!" "I ain't 50 years old for shit!" "I ain't 60 years old for shit!" so, when they come across thing regarding skill set they don't have or require more experience point then they got, they are not able to resolve it and yet, they think they got the wisdom to deal with it and won't ask for advice from people that actually know what they are doing, so they screw up and they won't absorb skill set and experience point of their adviser (I mean even if you need 100 experience point, 2 people with 50 experience point working together that is still 100 experience point) and when our parent's generation screw up, they won't learn from their mistake, because they think it must be everybody else's fault, due to their believe of "I ain't 50 years old for shit! So, it can't be my fault!" When our grand parent's generation screw up, they reflect on their mistake, so they don't make the same mistake the next time, hence, they get even more experience point. As a result, when our grandparent's generation is e.g. 50 years old, they got 70 experience and 10 skill set, our parent's generation at 50, only got 30 experience points and 5 skill set. Yet, they think they got infinite wisdom, no wonder they screw up. Patrick Steward is also the executive producer of this show, in recent years they try make a few new star trek series, but the series seem to be hitting a writer block and can't make anything good, Patrick Steward know just what to do, in fact you can see from clips of ep 1 already something. Instead of keep on imitating the old star trek and done something that be done to death, what he do is create a new story line, within the star trek universe that is exciting for the audience and something modern audience can relate to.
@@juiweiyang1033 Generalize much?
I would just love to have another Star Trek series that's calm and clever, instead of non stop action with a dark tone. Star Trek, to me, was always a peace of mind show, not a kung-fu movie. Would be great, if someone would make that happen, maybe on a lower budget.
Grey Man, I like your thinking and if I had my choice then I would say, Make it So.
Cheers from John, Australia.
@@joandar1 Cheers!
"The Orville". Just try it. At first it feels like a Star Trek parody but the over the top superficial bits got toned down a couple of episodes in and then it just feels like mostly lighthearted Trek. Seth MacFarlane is a die hard Star Trek fan and a lot of the original cast, writers and producers are involved too. I like it.
Well said!
amen!
Well done to the interviewer she was very respectful and polite this is rare from American interviews
"She's warm!" What an ear for the poetry of the stage to pick that line out!
First contact is superb and my favourite too. Frakes is a good director.
Absolute legend. Helped teach me the value and meaning of morality.
The writers of the show did that homie
@@Captain_Brown_Beard they did, but Picard really sold what they wrote.
@man0z prove. It.
@@vic5015
They never talk about how their "utopic" society works. EVER. They just say it does.
-What do people do all day? If there is no money, and everything is free, why are there people working shifts at bars? Why is there an academy with selection, if everyone is equal?
-Why would anyone (besides a power-hungry psychopath) decide to dedicate years and years of his life to become an admiral, when the only payoff is the position itself, and all the troubles and stress that come with it? You could live a happy life at home, with all your needs and desires met (unless you desire POWER, now that is a recipe for disaster).
-Everyone can have everything. Then, who gets to have a boat on the lake? Everyone? Then there is no more lake.The most important people? So not everyone is equal? You just substitute money with another metric, basically doing the same thing but with a different name?
-If there is no private propriety, how does Picard have his vineyard? How did it become HIS vineyard?
Dude, not even in a magical fantasy land where technology makes material needs free, socialism manages to make sense. And that is what they were (and are): a bunch of crazed cultists with no sense of reality or humanity recklessly pushing disastrous ideas. To seal the deal, he wrote in his story a GOD that gave the thumbs up to the federation "values" ( Q ). Basically like scientology.
Now, you can choose not to believe these facts: it's a common defense mechanism in stupid people.
Good stories, but like their ideas that is what they are: STORIES.
The actor or the character?
The man we should all strive to embody. Bless you Sir
Someone once said, "Don't try to be a great man, just try to be a man."
Funny enough, in another interview he said, that he liked acting, because he was running away from being Patrick Steward and could pretend to be someone else.
In the end we all share the same struggles...
As a fellow Yorkshire person, I love the way he says 'To Explaw' and to 'Boldly Gaw'- the Yorkshire accent glinting through!
Sir Patrick became more animated when he was talking about the dog
Well spotted... I saw that too, and for good reason. Sir Patrick is a very sensitive, compassionate man who has such deep feelings. Discovering how 'Ginger' had gone to get help when Sir Patrick was being sick in the bathroom shows that connection. Discussing on here how 'Ginger' had that compassion will hopefully connect with other kindred souls.
I'm so glad all these videos of Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, and so many people exist on UA-cam. We have an archive of their lives so that we can relive these moments after they leave us.
Patrick Stewart you are drop dead gorgeous.
Legendary man, in every sense.
I love Patrick Stewart! One of the greatest actors and people of all time! OF ALL TIME!!!
"Unknown". Shit, I was 7 when I first watched TNG and I instantly recognized him as Leodegrance and Gurney Halleck.
and Dr. Armstrong.
I first saw Patrick Stewart in Dune, so I recognized him when I saw him in Next Gen. Did anyone else see him in Dune before Next Gen.?
Yep.
Yes. He was one of two characters in "Dune" that grabbed my attention and really held it. I thought: "Listen to that VOICE! Who is this guy? He is great. Wow!" Then I heard he was going to be the captain of the new Enterprise-D. I thought he was a brilliant choice, and let's face it, he was. The only character in Star Trek to have not only a second series, but to also have said series NAMED after him!
He was also in “Excalibur”. I had also seen Mr. Stewart in other things, before “Star Trek. The Next Generation”. Even though I am American. I have always been an “Anglophile”. I watched quite a bit of British and Australian television and movies.
Patrick Stewart is tops. He speaks eloquently and he makes any acting project so much better.
LOVED THIS! Laughed when he owned the extra vowel in the line from First Contact since to me it always seemed spot on with the out-pour of emotion.
The story about Ginger's empathy touched me deeply also.
Would love to see Ian Mckellen as a guest star in an episode. Those two running around the galaxy would be epic!
He's always awesome, I remember him as sir Janus in I Claudius in the 70's...oh with some kind of hair too...great guy.
I've been watching the ST: Picard episodes and its been so nice to see ST come back to life.
2:09 I'd heard about that sign, but I didn't know that Brent was behind it. Makes sense though, evidently Brent Spiner is *quite* the jokester.
Such a genuine good person....he deserves the success....we need more like him. Absolutely enthralled about the picard series and so gosh darn happy it has Sir Patrick in it
His closing argument defending DATA in the episode YHE MEASURE OF A MAN is classic.
"Sir, I protest! I am NOT a merry man!"
I LOVE Patrick Stewart! Such a great legendary actor and nice man 😁👍👏 So happy to meet and see his character Jean-Luc Picard again and his adventures.
An absolute gentleman. I love him.
I never saw TNG when young. I am so grateful I got to know the Captain before I die. I think Sir Patrick and Captain Picard are my two favorite people on earth. I love them so much. They make me a better person. I, too, have seen concern, love and gratitude in the eyes of a gorgeous pitbull named Sophie. She is the epitome of love. Thank you, Sir Patrick.
This is such a good interview. Good chemistry between the two, good questions. Bravo!
He is such a wonderful person
I seen Patrick Stewart as Professor Xavier way back when he was still on Star Trek He was meant for that role💯
Patrick Stewart is such a likeable actor and consummate professional it is always a joy to watch him speak about his career.
*Likeable person.
Love Picard ! Patrick Stewart The best star trek actor ever! Thanks for hanging in there!
Patrick and Ian's Bromance is cool as heck....
Patrick is the top.
Well, if I didn't already have a great appreciation for Mr. Stewart... what I nice guy.
The outfit Patrick Stewart has on while directing "A Fistful of Datas" is fantastic.
He's so sweet and thoughtful
What a Charming man Ive seen him do other things besides star trek and X Men and he is a brilliant Actor and you can really tell he just loves people .
He is so amazing
Awesome personality Sir Patrick Stewart has.😊 I know him in *_Hamlet_* (twice), of course in *_Star Trek: The Next Generation_* , and now in *_Star Trek: Picard_* .
Thank You Sir Patrick for your Pit Bull (pibble) activism ! We are pit bull parents for 20 yrs & it is so wonderful that you advocate for this misunderstood breed ! Thanks for backing up the breed with knowledge & love!
Living up to Sir Paul's remark to Sir Patrick a while ago that they are Knights of the Round Table, not said in arrogance, but rather in jest. But they really are. They give the world so much quality, honesty, stories and joy, and that makes them true Knights in my book. Knights of the World.
He was in a good mood during this interview.
WHAT A LOVELY INTERVIEW.
This man is a blessing
amazing interview thank you!
This was a very nice interview. A lot of talk show hosts and interviewers, men and women alike, tend to cut off the interviewee due to time constraints or just poor skills but this girl did a fantastic job. Loved the questions!
Sir Patrick is a legend in his own time. So glad he is back in the new series.
Great interview - love hearing the stories and the opening up of the range of the actor - lots of space given
Fun fact: it was actually Ian McKellen, who back in 1987 (while Patrick Stewart was auditioning for Picard, ran an acting workshop in LA, and the two would meet for a drink once a week) after hearing what Patrick was auditioning for, advised him not to take the part, because "it's science fiction", and it would ruin his acting career. Five years prior to that, Stewart played in the De Laurentiis production of The Dune, and McKellen told Stewart, it had been a career "suicide" for a serious actor, as Stewart.
Fast forward a decade later, they were doing science fiction together.
That voice. Love it. Great actor.
We love you, Patrick.
I could listen to Patrick for hours
Beautiful interview thank you for the great vibes
This is just it we have to be able to look above and Beyond ourselves
Sir Patrick is the absolute best!
How can one not love Patrick Stewart?
I've been a fan of Stewart's since he played Karla in Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy back in the late 70's.
i always been a big fan of Sir Patrick Stewart one of my very first things as a kid i seen him in to this day is till think of him as Gurney Halleck after watching the 84 lynch Dune movie the extended one where he was shown playing the balaset and his voice work in Nausicaa the valley of the winds and one strange twist of fate on star trek many years later they show Picard being attacked by a Nausican and later on in Men in Tights king richard that was too awesome and made the movie complete and as the true professor X in x-men he is the perfect fit for that character he is a true amazing legend through and throughand ahppy to see him on Picard and multiverse movie coming up as the one n only Prof X.
I enjoyed this. Thank you
I am so in love with this amazing man.
Coming from Massachusetts, I never noticed the extra vowel....
Wonderful interview!
Awesome human. Love him. Will be checking out Picard. :)
Loved ST: TNG. Loved ST: DSN. Love Jean-Luc Picard and all the cast from TNG.
Contact is my fav too! I love that he loves rescue dogs!
Thank you
That was a great interview - he seemed to enjoy it too!
At the end, Patrick Stewart is probably the best acquisition in long time for the universe of Star Trek since the Shattner´s first team in the 60s. His playing for the role of Captain Picard set a new standard for the kind of personality and a smarter perspective required for deeper plots that Next Generation integrated to the show. The thems that Next Generation put on the table were definitely more complex , involving values, analisys, and more intelligent speechs than pure action. The great merit of the character of Captain Picard is to fulfill the requirements for both more complex situations and lead with energy the action scenes with a lot of more technical resources than in the years before, but avoiding to let the show depending just on those visual tricks, and Stewart was the right actor for that.
What a nice guy.
Amazing
Superb Gentleman
Great Discussion...!! Thankyou
Kocham tego człowieka!!!!
Love the interview! Patrick Stewart is TNG and Captain Picard. I just want to say, that cat's also have incredible intuition. As selfish as they are, when you are in pain (physically or mentally) they know. My standoffish cat would nuzzle me and insist I pet him when I was in straights. :)
3:10 that line reading is iconic thought ... if he misspoke, it's the best misspoken phrase in Trek history.
Nice interview.
Sir Patrick Stewart is a perfect human being.
What a nice chap!
Just the other day, I was at the McD's, and there was a guy who opened the door for me who looked just like Ian McKellen. As I walked by him, he said "you are ok".
Excellent command of the English language and still very sharp.
The best captain ever
Picard!!!!!!!!!!!!!! the best Captain ever!!
THAT WAS HIS SCOTTISH ACCENT COMING THROUGH !
My favourite Picard line is “there are four lights!!”☺️
yes, indeed. this comes from a good episode. please remember me, I literally can see him in that scene before me. what is the title of that episode Picard been tortured and said this line..?
Yep Episode 10, 11 season 6 two parts. Chain of Command
Boy, she did a really fantastic job... Taking notes!!
Reminds me of the directive given to 'Two and a Half Men' producers before casting began - anyone but Jon Cryer.
Both Leonard Nimoy and Picard worked at the Royal Shakespeare company!
"The line is drawn here" is NOT an internet sensation, c'mon. That Face Palm, yes maybe. Neat that Ian Mkellan was the "priest" for his wedding so speaking of Mkellan..."YOU shall not PASS!!" because "the line is drawn here!" lol
@10:16 great story!
"There are FOUR lights!"
Is there anyplace else to stream Picard other than CBS?
A first full of datas was a fantastic episode.
I want Sir Ian in an episode of Picard
this man teased? He's the greatest of the great. so fucking awesome...
Frakes should be in charge of Star Trek, not any of the people making it now.
Frakes is great. Insurrection was not.
Frakes is a solid and competent television director, but that doesn't make him a capable showrunner, or a solid and competent cinema director.
Well said.
MAKE IT SO!
2:44 Did Patrick Stewart know a line in a 1996 movie was going to become an internet meme? Shot in the dark here, I'm gonna guess no lol
One of the best scenes in all of Star Trek.
She didn't finish explaining what she was asking that he thought it would be. She cut herself off mid sentence and mentioned the meme and internet, so Idk that I'd assume where her original question was going.
The line must be drawn HERE! This far! No further! ... YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!
