Spock: "Captain, I will not be coming with you." Picard: "Ambassador--"
Spock: "The reason for my coming here has never been more clear.
The union of the Vulcan and the Romulan people will not be achieved
by politics or by diplomacy. But it will be achieved. The answer
has been here before us all along. An inexorable evolution toward
a Vulcan philosophy has already begun. Like the first Vulcans, these
people...are struggling to a new enlightment. And it may take decades
or even centuries for them to reach it. But they will reach it.
And I must help."
