Chekov: "No casualties, Doctor."
McCoy: "Wrong, Mister Chekov,
there are casualties. My wits! As in frightened out of ...!"
Decker: "This is how I define unwarranted."
Decker: "We all create God in our own image."
Chief DeFalco: "Heading sir?"
Kirk: "Out there ... thataway."
Kirk: "I'm taking the center seat."
Kirk: "An answer? I don't even know the question!"
Kirk: "Evaluation, Mr. Spock." Spock: "Fascinating."Kirk: "I'm sorry, Will."
Decker: "No, Admiral. I don't think
you're sorry. Not one damned bit. I remember when you recommended me for this command. You
told me how envious you were and how much you hoped you would get a starship command
again. Well sir, it looks like you found a way."
McCoy: "How do we know about any of us?"
McCoy: "Why is any object we don't understand always called a 'thing'?"
McCoy: "Well Jim ... I hear Chapel's an M.D. now. Well I'm going to need a top nurse ... not a doctor who'll argue every little diagnosis with me. And they probably redesigned the whole sickbay, too! I know engineers, they love to change things."McCoy: "Spock, this 'child' is about to wipe out every living thing on Earth! Now
what do you suggest we do? Spank it?"
Spock: "Each of us, at some time in
our lives, turns to someone - a father, a brother, a God - and asks, 'Why am I here? What
was I meant to be?'"
Spock: "It only knows that it needs. But like so many of us, it does not know what."
Transporter chief (after accident): Enterprise, what we got back didn't live very long... fortunately.
Uhura (re: V'ger): "It could hold a crew of ... tens of thousands."
McCoy: "Or a crew of a thousand ten miles tall."
Khan: "Let them eat static."
Khan: "These people have sworn to live and die at my command 200 years before you were born."Khan: "You see, their young enter through the ears and wrap themselves around the
cerebral cortex. This has the effect of rendering the victim extremely susceptible to
suggestion. Later as they grow follows madness and death."
Chekov: "Khan,
listen to me -"
Khan: "These are pets, of course. Not quite
domesticated."
Khan: "Ah. Not so wounded as we were led to believe. So much the better."
Khan: "To the last, I will grapple with thee." Khan: "From hell's heart, I stab at thee. For hate's sake, I spit my last breath at thee." Khan: "I'll chase him 'round the moons of Nibia and 'round the Antares Maelstrom and 'round perdition's flames before I give him up!"Kirk: "There is no correct resolution. It's a test of character."
Kirk: "We all have our assigned duties."
Kirk: "A no-win situation is a possibility every commander could face."
Kirk: "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times."
Kirk: "You should know the dangers of opening old wounds."
Kirk: "This'll be your big chance to get away from it all."
Kirk: "How we deal with death is at least as important as how we deal with life."
Kirk: "You've managed to kill just about everyone else, but like a poor marksman you keep missing the target." Kirk: "I don't believe in a no-win scenario." Kirk: "Stand by to receive our transmission. Mr. Sulu, lock phasers on target." Kirk: "We are gathered here today to pay final respects to our honored dead. But it should be noted that this death takes place in the shadow of new life, the sunrise of a new world; a world that our beloved comrade gave his life to protect and nourish. He did not feel this sacrifice a vain or empty one, and we will not debate his profound wisdom at these proceedings. Of my friend, I can only say this: of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most ... human." Kirk: "I suppose you're about to remind me that logic alone dictates your actions?"Kirk: "Khan, you bloodsucker! You're going to have to do your own dirty work now, do
you hear me? Do you?"
Khan: "Kirk! You're still alive, old friend!"
Kirk: "Still, 'old friend!' You've managed to kill everyone else but like a
poor marksman, you keep missing the target."
Khan: "Perhaps I no longer
need to try, Admiral."
Kirk: "Khan... Khan, you've got Genesis, but
you don't have me. You were going to kill me, Khan. You're going to have to come down here.
You're going to have to come down here."
Khan: "I've done far worse than kill
you, Admiral. I've hurt you. And I wish to go on hurting you. I shall leave you as you
left me, as you left her: marooned for all eternity in the center of a dead planet, buried
alive. Buried alive."
Kirk: "KHAAANNNN! KHAAANNNN!"
Carol Marcus: "Jim Kirk was many things, but he was never a boy scout."
David Marcus: "Scientists have always been pawns of the military!"McCoy: "Beware Romulans bearing gifts."
McCoy: "Damn it Jim, what the hell is the matter with you? Other people have birthdays, why are we treating yours like a funeral?" McCoy: "Where are we going?"Spock: "I have been, and always shall be, your friend."
Spock: "You proceed from a false assumption. I have no ego to bruise."
Spock: "For everything, there is a first time."
Spock: "As a matter of cosmic history, it has always been easier to destroy than create."
Spock: "Logic clearly dictates that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."Alien: "To your planet, welcome."
McCoy: "I think that's my
line, stranger."
Alien: "Oh, forgive. I here am new. But you are known,
being McCoy, from Enterprise."
McCoy: "You have me at a disadvantage,
sir."
Alien: "Oh, I name not important. You seek I. Message received.
Available ship stands by."
McCoy: "How much and how soon?"
Alien: "How soon is now. How much is, where?"
McCoy: "Look, price you
name, money I got."
Alien: "Place you name, money I name, otherwise
bargain, no."
McCoy: "Alright, damn it! It's Genesis! The name of the
place we are going is Genesis."
Alien: "Genesis?!"
McCoy:
"Yes, Genesis! How can you be deaf with ears like that?"
Alien:
"Genesis allowed is not! Is planet forbidden!"
Kirk: "What I've done, I had to do. If I hadn't tried, the cost would've been my soul."
Kirk: "The needs of the few outweigh the needs of the many."
Kirk: "The needs of one outweighed the needs of the many."
Kirk: "You. Help us or die."Sarek: "My logic is uncertain where my son is concerned."
Scott: "The more they over think the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain."Spock (his first words after revival): "My father says that you have been my friend."
Sulu: "Don't call me tiny."
Sulu: "The word, sir?"Uhura: "You know what they say, be careful what you wish for, you may get it."
Kirk: "May fortune favor the foolish."
Kirk (re: Spock's actions): "Oh, him? He's harmless. Part of the free speech movement at Berkeley in the sixties. I think he did a little too much LDS."
Kirk: "Spock, where's that power?"
Spock: "Just one damn
minute, Admiral."
Kirk: "Everybody remember where we parked."
Kirk: "If we play our cards right, we may be able to find out when those whales are being released." Spock: "How will playing cards help?"McCoy: "Nobody's perfect."
McCoy (re: death): "C'mon Spock, it's me, McCoy. You really have gone where no man's gone before. Can't you tell me what it felt like?"
Scott: "Thy will be done."
Scott (at 20th century computer): "Keyboard! How quaint."
Spock: "Ah... the giants."
Spock: "They like you very much, but they are not the hell your whales."
Gillian: "I suppose they told you that."
Spock (learning to use
profanity): "The hell they did."
Kirk: "Who's trying to break any records? I'm doing this because I enjoy it!"
Kirk: "If we're going to do it, we're going to do it by the
book."
Kirk: "What is this power you have to control the minds of my crew?"
Sybok: "I don't control minds. I free them."
Spock: "I have found myself and my place. I know who I am."
Spock: "Perhaps 'because it is there' is not sufficient reason for climbing a mountain." Spock: "He reminds me of someone I knew in my youth."Sulu: "Actually, it's my first attempt."
Sulu: "We're lost -- but we're making good time."
Chang: "I can see you Kirk. Can you see me?"
Kirk: "Chang!"
Chang: "Oh, now be honest, Captain. Warrior to warrior. You do prefer it this
way, don't you, as it was meant to be. No peace in our time. 'Once more onto the breach,
dear friends.'"
Chekov: "Perhaps you know of Russian epic of Cinderella...? If shoe fits, wear it!"
Gorkon: "You don't trust me, do you? I don't blame you. If there is to be a brave new world, our generation is going to have the hardest time living in it."Kirk: "People can be very frightened of change."
Kirk (re: Klingons): "They're animals."
Spock: "Jim, there is an
historic opportunity here."
Kirk: "Don't believe them! Don't trust
them!"
Spock: "They're dying."
Kirk: "Let them die."
McCoy: "They don't arrest people for having feelings."
Spock: "I've been dead before."
Spock: "You must have faith that the Universe will unfold as it should."
Spock: "What you want is irrelevant. What you have chosen is at hand."
Spock: "The expulsion from Paradise ... it is a reminder to me that all things end."
Spock: "Logic is the beginning of wisdom, not the end...."
Spock: "Even logic must give way to physics."
Spock: "There is the old Vulcan proverb: only Nixon could go to China." Spock: "If I were human I believe my response would be go to hell. ... If I were human." Spock: "Mr. Scott, I understand you are experiencing difficulties with the warp engines?"Data: "Humor ... I love it!"
Kirk: "Who am I to question the captain of the Enterprise?" Picard: "Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived. After all Number One, we're only mortal."Riker (to Worf after asking computer to remove plank instead of retracting it): "Sorry!"
Dr. Soran: "You'll have to excuse me captain, I have an appointment with eternity, and I don't want to be late."Dr. Soran: "They say that time is the fire in which we burn."
Borg Queen (to Data): "You are an imperfect being, created by an imperfect being."
Borg Queen: "Are you familiar with physical forms of pleasure?"EMH: "I'm a doctor, not a doorstop."
Picard: "Reports of my assimilation have been greatly exaggerated."Picard: "I suggest you deactivate your emotion chip for now."
Data:
"Done."
Picard: "Data, there are times when I envy you."
Picard: "You may want to hold your breath. It's a long way down."
Riker (re: USS Defiant): "Tough little ship."Lily Sloane (after seeing Borg): "Definitely not Swedish."
Lily Sloane: "It's my first ray gun." Lily Sloane: "You broke your little ships." Troi (drunk): "This is no time to argue about time. We don't have the time!" Troi (very drunk): "He wouldn't even talk to me unless I had a drink with him. Then he made me drink three shots of something called tequila before he would tell me who he was."Vulcan: "Live long and prosper."
Cochrane: "Thanks."
Worf: "Perhaps today is a good day to die!"
Picard: "Can anyone remember when we use to be explorers?"
