Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : I was just passing by. I was wondering what you were up to.
Lt. Commander Data : [sitting in front of a screen] I am using the time to catch up on my study of poetry.
[La Forge walks round to take a look]
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : Data, there's nothing on the screen.
Lt. Commander Data : That is not entirely correct. While it is true the display is currently blank, this... emptiness has a poetic meaning. Therefore, it cannot be considered 'nothing' as such.
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : Says who?
Lt. Commander Data : The ancient Doosodarians. Much of their poetry contains such lacunae or empty spaces. Often, these pauses measured several days in length, during which poet and audience were encouraged to fully acknowledge the emptiness of the experience.
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : I remember a few lectures from Starfleet Academy that seemed that way.

Captain Jean-Luc Picard : Geordi... I'm very sorry that you didn't find your mother.
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : Thank you, sir. You know, it's funny. When I was down there... it was so real. I felt like I had a chance to say goodbye.

Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : I'm seeing my reflection in a panel. Forgot what a handsome guy I am.

Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : Sometimes, "just passing by" means "just passing by".
-
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : The Hera is missing. That's all. Until I hear something different, my mother just might as well have taken the crew on an unscheduled holiday.

Commander William T. Riker : [unseen] Geordi, have you found it yet?
Lt. Commander Geordi La Forge : Not yet. I'm starting to get some fumes. Ammonia, chlorine, potassium chloride.
