As great an actor as he is and as great a person I'm sure he was, I must sadly admit that I don't believe the two us would have been friends if we'd met.

When he talks about his childhood, he speaks of riding horses through his parents' vineyard. He was evidently born into a level of wealth and status that gave him a very different life from most "normal" people.

    Am I missing a joke about captain Picard's family having a vineyard (don't remember if they rode horses), or are you confusing Patrick Stewart with someone else? His family was poor as shit, and his dad had PTSD, and was prone to violence. He was anything but born into wealth.
