I became a better listener than I ever had been as a result of playing Jean Luc Picard because it was one of the things that he does terrifically well. ↗

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. ↗

I had come to the point when I realized it was unlikely that my film career was going to move beyond a certain level of role. And I was - because I had graphic instances of it - handicapped by the success of Star Trek. A director would say, 'I don't want Jean-Luc Picard in my movie' - and this was compounded by X-Men as well. ↗

One of the things that I've come to understand is that as I talk a lot about Picard, what I find is that I'm talking about myself. ↗
