Bochra quotes from Star Trek: The Next Generation

[referring to Geordi's blindness] How did this happen?

Geordi La Forge

I was born that way.

And your parents let you live?

Geordi La Forge

What kind of question is that! Of course they let me live.

No wonder your race is weak. You waste time and resources on defective children.

I have no more wish to die than you do.

Geordi La Forge

Bochra, there are times when it is necessary to die for one's ideals... do you believe this is one of those times?

Geordi La Forge

Let's go find that beacon.

Do all humans give up so easily?

Geordi La Forge

Bochra, we're lost. Unless you've got something that can smell neutrinos.

We have the sensor device you are carrying.

Geordi La Forge

Tricorder? It's not designed to detect neutrinos.

Your eye device does. Connect them.

Geordi La Forge

That's crazy. The devices aren't compatible, it would be impossible to get an accurate reading... wait a minute. Wait a minute. I wouldn't need to get an accurate reading. I'd just need it to point us in the right direction, a neutrino geiger counter...! [sighs] It's still impossible.

Why?

Geordi La Forge

Because I can't see! Adapting the devices is delicate work, you can't do it by hand.

Then I will be your eyes.
