More on Jean-Luc Picard
Description from Wikipedia:
Jean-Luc Picard is a Star Trek character primarily portrayed by actor Patrick Stewart. He appears in the television series Star Trek: The Next Generation as the captain of the Federation starship USS Enterprise-D. Picard also appears in the feature films Star Trek Generations, Star Trek: First Contact, Star Trek: Insurrection, and Star Trek Nemesis as the captain of the newly-built USS Enterprise-E, and made an appearance in the pilot episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
Picard is depicted as a deeply moral, highly logical and cerebral man; a master of diplomacy and debate, who can resolve seemingly intractable issues between multiple parties. Though such resolutions are usually peaceful, Picard is also shown utilizing his remarkable tactical cunning in situations when it is required. Additionally, he is depicted as remarkably adept in unarmed combat despite his demeanor, having once defeated a Klingon warrior with his bare hands.
Picard's signature phrases from the captain's chair were "Make it so" and "Engage". In his quarters and ready room he was also known to request "Tea; Earl Grey; Hot" from the replicator.
