I don't have time for this.

LILY: Oh! Hey! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt your little quest. Captain Ahab has to go hunt his whale.
PICARD: What?
LILY: You do have books in the twenty-fourth century?
.....
PICARD: 'And he piled upon the whale's white hump, a sum of all the rage and hate felt by his own race. If his chest had been a cannon, he would have shot his heart upon it.'
LILY: What?
PICARD: 'Moby Dick.'
LILY: Actually, I never read it.

Moby Dick... one of the few books I've never managed to read more than half way through. It starts off quite well, indeed it can be quite engaging in parts, but then it goes all esoteric and rambling, like a john le carre spy novel; there's a lot of words and very little actual plot.
Perhaps I should apply myself more, but I just loose interest.

amusing little game though

I'll trust Picard's authority on this. After all, he starred in the remake.
