- I've never seen such technology.
- It hasn't been invented yet.
:44:14
There's more I have to tell you.
Come on.
:44:22
Are you ready?
:44:25
- Who are you?
- I am the Borg.
:44:28
That is a contradiction. The Borg
have a collective consciousness.
:44:33
There are no individuals.
:44:41
I am the beginning, the end,
the one who is many.
:45:01
I am the Borg.
:45:05
Greetings.
:45:08
I am curious,
do you control the Borg collective?
:45:12
You imply disparity where
none exists. I am the collective.
:45:16
I'll rephrase the question.
I wish to understand their hierarchy.
:45:22
Are you their leader?
:45:26
I bring order to chaos.
:45:30
A cryptic response.
:45:33
You are in chaos, Data.
:45:36
You are a machine
who wishes to be human.
:45:40
I am programmed
to evolve and to better myself.
:45:46
We, too, are on a quest
to better ourselves.
:45:50
Evolving toward a state of perfection.
:45:53
Forgive me, but the Borg
do not evolve, they conquer.
:45:58
By assimilating other beings we are
bringing them closer to perfection.
