Star Trek: The Next Generation: A Time (1) To Be Born
by John Vornholt



p.13 The young man felt himself moving physically, beyond his will. He passed through the flimsy barrier into the very heart of the Travelers' existence, surrounded by an impossible array of images, sensations, glimpses, and thoughts. In a nanosecond, Wes experienced all war, joy, failure, triumph--the humdrum of everyday existence and the extraordinary moments that defined each and every life. The greatest moments of history, a thousand dark ages, the march of progress, and the deprivations of brutality--all assaulted him without demanding an explanation...just acceptance.

p.143 "...which looked like a multi-colored snowball exploding in slow motion."

p.208 "I know Starfleet, and their bureaucracies can make a Cardassian torture chamber look like kindergarten."
