You judge yourselves against the pitiful adversaries you've encountered so far - the Romulans, the Klingons. They're nothing compared to what's waiting. Picard - you are about to move into areas of the galaxy containing wonders more incredible than you can possibly imagine - and terrors to freeze your soul.
But for real, I've been following Calvinist Picard on a couple of facebook pages for a while and just found his Captain's Log. Loving it and being able to put a voice to the posts :)
