It's hard to believe that something which is neither seen nor

-- Kirk, "The Menagerie," stardate 3012.4.
Vulcans worship peace above all.
-- McCoy, "Return to Tomorrow," stardate 4768.3.
The glory of creation is in its infinite diversity.
And in the way our differences combine to create meaning and beauty.
-- Dr. Miranda Jones and Spock, "Is There in Truth No Beauty?,"
stardate 5630.8.

Pain is a thing of the mind. The mind can be controlled.
-- Spock, "Operation -- Annihilate!" stardate 3287.2.
It [being a Vulcan] means to adopt a philosophy, a way of life which
is logical and beneficial. We cannot disregard that philosophy
merely for personal gain, no matter how important that gain might be.
-- Spock, "Journey to Babel," stardate 3842.4.
Vulcans never bluff.
-- Spock, "The Doomsday Machine," stardate 4202.1.

pleasures. I feel it myself. Like the hunt, but with richer rewards.

We do not colonize. We conquer. We rule. There is no other way

Sometimes a feeling is all we humans have to go on.
-- Kirk, "A Taste of Armageddon," stardate 3193.9.

That may be, Doctor. However, I have noted that the healthy release
of emotion is frequently unhealthy for those closest to you.
-- McCoy and Spock, "Plato's Stepchildren," stardate 5784.3.

One does not thank logic.

always a woman.

Respect is a rational process.
-- McCoy, "The Galileo Seven," stardate 2822.3.
It would be illogical to assume that all conditions remain stable.
-- Spock, "The Enterprise" Incident," stardate 5027.3
Logic and practical information do not seem to apply here.
You admit that?
To deny the facts would be illogical, Doctor.
-- Spock and McCoy, "A Piece of the Action," stardate unknown.
You can't evaluate a man by logic alone.
-- McCoy, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
Life and death are seldom logical.
But attaining a desired goal always is.
-- McCoy and Spock, "The Galileo Seven," stardate 2821.7.
It would be illogical to kill without reason.
-- Spock, "Journey to Babel," stardate 3842.4.
Can you imagine how life could be improved if we could do away
with jealousy, greed, hate....
It can also be improved by eliminating love, tenderness, sentiment
-- the other side of the coin.

stardate 2712.4
Without facts, the decision cannot be made logically. You must
rely on your human intuition.
-- Spock, "Assignment: Earth," stardate unknown.
You say you are lying. But if everything you say is a lie, then you
are telling the truth. You cannot tell the truth because everything
you say is a lie. You lie, you tell the truth ... but you cannot,
for you lie.
-- Norman the android, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
It is more rational to sacrifice one life than six.
-- Spock, "The Galileo Seven," stardate 2822.3.
I think they're going to take all this money that we spend now on war
and death --
And make them spend it on life.
-- Edith Keeler and Kirk, "The City on the Edge of Forever,"
stardate unknown.
Our missions are peaceful -- not for conquest. When we do battle,
it is only because we have no choice.
-- Kirk, "The Squire of Gothos," stardate 2124.5.
We fight only when there is no other choice. We prefer the ways of
peaceful contact.
-- Kirk, "Spectre of the Gun," stardate 4385.3.
Only a fool fights in a burning house.
-- Kank the Klingon, "Day of the Dove," stardate unknown.
Our way is peace.
-- Septimus, the Son Worshiper, "Bread and Circuses,"
stardate 4040.7.
Men of peace usually are [brave].

He's dead, Jim.

You're dead, Jim.
-- McCoy, "Amok Time," stardate 3372.7.
You're dead, Jim.

No one talks peace unless he's ready to back it up with war.

-- Colonel Green and Surak of Vulcan, "The Savage Curtain,"
stardate 5906.5.
There's another way to survive. Mutual trust -- and help.
-- Kirk, "Day of the Dove," stardate unknown.
If some day we are defeated, well, war has its fortunes, good and bad.
-- Commander Kor, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3201.7.
It's [war is] instinctive. But the instinct can be fought. We're
human beings with the blood of a million savage years on our hands!
But we can stop it. We can admit that we're killers...but we're not
going to kill today. That's all it takes! Knowing that we're not
going to kill today!
-- Kirk, "A Taste of Armageddon," stardate 3193.0.
Actual war is a very messy business. Very, very messy business.
-- Kirk, "A Taste of Armageddon," stardate 3193.0.
War isn't a good life, but it's life.
-- Kirk, "A Private Little War," stardate 4211.8.
You Earth people glorified organized violence for forty centuries.
But you imprison those who employ it privately.
-- Spock, "Dagger of the Mind," stardate 2715.1.
Another war...must it always be so? How many comrades have we lost
in this way?... Obedience. Duty. Death, and more death...
-- Romulan Commander, "Balance of Terror," stardate 1709.2.
There's no honorable way to kill, no gentle way to destroy. There
is nothing good in war. Except its ending.
-- Abraham Lincoln, "The Savage Curtain," stardate 5906.5.
...bacteriological warfare...hard to believe we were once foolish
enough to play around with that.
-- McCoy, "The Omega Glory," stardate unknown.
Those who hate and fight must stop themselves -- otherwise it is
not stopped.
-- Spock, "Day of the Dove," stardate unknown.
War is never imperative.
-- McCoy, "Balance of Terror," stardate 1709.2
Another Armenia, Belgium...the weak innocents who always seem to
be located on a natural invasion route.
-- Kirk, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3198.4.
No one wants war.
-- Kirk, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3201.7.
Death. Destruction. Disease. Horror. That's what war is all
about. That's what makes it a thing to be avoided.
-- Kirk, "A Taste of Armageddon," stardate 3193.0.
Peace was the way.
-- Kirk, "The City on the Edge of Forever," stardate unknown.
The face of war has never changed. Surely it is more logical to
heal than to kill.
-- Surak of Vulcan, "The Savage Curtain," stardate 5906.5.
Do you know the one -- "All I ask is a tall ship...and a star to
steer her by..." You could feel the wind at your back, about you...
the sounds of the sea beneath you. And even if you take away the
wind and the water, it's still the same. The ship is yours...you
can feel her...and the stars are still there.
-- Kirk, "The Ultimate Computer," stardate 4729.4.
I've already got a female to worry about. Her name is the Enterprise.
-- Kirk, "The Corbomite Maneuver," stardate 1514.0.
I'm a soldier, not a diplomat. I can only tell the truth.
-- Kirk, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3198.9.
One of the advantages of being a captain is being able to ask
for advice without necessarily having to take it.
-- Kirk, "Dagger of the Mind," stardate 2715.2.
Intuition, however illogical, is recognized as a command prerogative.
-- Kirk, "Obsession," stardate 3620.7.
A star captain's most solemn oath is that he will give his life,
even his entire crew, rather than violate the Prime Directive.
-- Kirk, "The Omega Glory," stardate unknown.
The man on top walks a lonely street; the "chain" of command
is often a noose.
-- McCoy, "The Conscience of the King," stardate 2818.9.
Either one of us, by himself, is expendable. Both of us are not.
-- Kirk, "The Devil in the Dark," stardate 3196.1.
Computers make excellent and efficient servants, but I have no
wish to serve under them. Captain, a starship also runs on
loyalty to one man. And nothing can replace it or him.
-- Spock, "The Ultimate Computer," stardate 4729.4.
I realize that command does have its fascination, even under
circumstances such as these, but I neither enjoy the idea of command
nor am I frightened of it. It simply exists, and I will do whatever
logically needs to be done.
-- Spock, "The Galileo Seven," stardate 2812.7.
The only solution is...a balance of power. We arm our side with
exactly that much more. A balance of power -- the trickiest,
most difficult, dirtiest game of them all. But the only one that
preserves both sides.
-- Kirk, "A Private Little War," stardate 4211.8.
You speak of courage. Obviously you do not know the difference
between courage and foolhardiness. Always it is the brave ones
who die, the soldiers.
-- Kor, the Klingon Commander, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3201.7.
First study the enemy. Seek weakness.
-- Romulan Commander, "Balance of Terror," stardate 1709.2.
You are an excellent tactician, Captain. You let your second in
command attack while you sit and watch for weakness.
-- Khan Noonian Singh, "Space Seed," stardate 3141.9.
For thousand throats may be cut in one night by a running man.
-- Klingon Soldier, "Day of the Dove," stardate unknown.
Conquest is easy. Control is not.
-- Kirk, "Mirror, Mirror," stardate unknown.
If I can have honesty, it's easier to overlook mistakes.
-- Kirk, "Space Seed," stardate 3141.9.
Power is danger.
-- The Centurion, "Balance of Terror," stardate 1709.2.
Military secrets are the most fleeting of all.
-- Spock, "The Enterprise Incident," stardate 5027.4.
Leave bigotry in your quarters; there's no room for it on the bridge.
-- Kirk, "Balance of Terror," stardate 1709.2.
The idea of male and female are universal constants.
-- Kirk, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
Is not that the nature of men and women -- that the pleasure
is in the learning of each other?
-- Natira, the High Priestess of Yonada, "For the World is
Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky," stardate 5476.3.
There's only one kind of woman....
Or man, for that matter.
You either believe in yourself or you don't.
-- Kirk and Harry Mudd, "Mudd's Women," stardate 1330.1.
This cultural mystique surrounding the biological function --
you realize humans are overly preoccupied with the subject.
-- Kelinda the Kelvan, "By Any Other Name," stardate 4658.9.
Earth -- mother of the most beautiful women in the universe.
-- Apollo, "Who Mourns for Adonais?" stardate 3468.1.
Women professionals do tend to over-compensate.
-- Dr. Elizabeth Dehaver, "Where No Man Has Gone Before,"
stardate 1312.9.
Extreme feminine beauty is always disturbing.
-- Spock, "The Cloud Minders," stardate 5818.4.
Behind every great man, there is a woman -- urging him on.
-- Harry Mudd, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
Landru! Guide us!
-- A Beta 3 person, "The Return of the Archons," stardate 3157.4
You! What PLANET is this?
-- McCoy, "The City on the Edge of Forever," stardate 3134.0.
Fascinating, a totally parochial attitude.
-- Spock, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
But it's real. And if it's real it can be affected...
we may not be able to break it, but, I'll bet you
credits to Navy Beans we can put a dent in it.
-- deSalle, "Catspaw," stardate 3018.2.
There is a multi-legged creature crawling on your shoulder.
-- Spock, "A Taste of Armageddon," stardate 3193.9.
Witch! Witch! They'll burn ya!
-- Hag, "Tomorrow is Yesterday," stardate unknown.
Wait! You have not been prepared!
-- Mr. Atoz, "Tomorrow is Yesterday," stardate 3113.2.
A woman should have compassion.
-- Kirk, "Catspaw," stardate 3018.2.
There is an old custom among my people. When a woman saves a
man's life, he is grateful.
-- Nona, the Kanuto witch woman, "A Private Little War,"
stardate 4211.8.
Worlds may change, galaxies disintegrate, but a woman
always remains a woman.
-- Kirk, "The Conscience of the King," stardate 2818.9.
Women are more easily and more deeply terrified ... generating
more sheer horror than the male of the species.
-- Spock, "Wolf in the Fold," stardate 3615.4.
That unit is a woman.
A mass of conflicting impulses.
-- Spock and Nomad, "The Changeling," stardate 3541.9.
It is undignified for a woman to play servant to a man who is
not hers.
-- Spock, "Amok Time," stardate 3372.7.
Men will always be men -- no matter where they are.
-- Harry Mudd, "Mudd's Women," stardate 1329.8.
There are certain things men must do to remain men.
-- Kirk, "The Ultimate Computer," stardate 4929.4.
I have never understood the female capacity to avoid a direct
answer to any question.
-- Spock, "This Side of Paradise," stardate 3417.3.
Oh, that sound of male ego. You travel halfway across the galaxy
and it's still the same song.
-- Eve McHuron, "Mudd's Women," stardate 1330.1.
A princess should not be afraid -- not with a brave knight to
protect her.
-- McCoy, "Shore Leave," stardate 3025.3.
Get back to your stations!
We're beaming down to the planet, sir.
-- Kirk and Mr. Leslie, "This Side of Paradise," stardate 3417.3
You'll learn something about men and women -- the way they're
supposed to be. Caring for each other, being happy with each
other, being good to each other. That's what we call love.
You'll like that a lot.
-- Kirk, "The Apple," stardate 3715.6
Do you know about being with somebody? Wanting to be? If I had
the whole universe, I'd give it to you, Janice. When I see you,
I feel like I'm hungry all over. Do you know how that feels?
-- Charlie Evans, "Charlie X," stardate 1535.8.
You go slow, be gentle. It's no one-way street -- you know how
you feel and that's all. It's how the girl feels too. Don't press.
If the girl feels anything for you at all, you'll know.
-- Kirk, "Charlie X," stardate 1535.8.
Each kiss is as the first.
-- Miramanee, Kirk's wife, "The Paradise Syndrome," stardate 4842.6.
Love sometimes expresses itself in sacrifice.
-- Kirk, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3220.3.
Humans do claim a great deal for that particular emotion (love).
-- Spock, "The Lights of Zetar," stardate 5725.6.
The heart is not a logical organ.
-- Dr. Janet Wallace, "The Deadly Years," stardate 3479.4.
It is a human characteristic to love little animals, especially
if they're attractive in some way.
-- McCoy, "The Trouble with Tribbles," stardate 4525.6.
What kind of love is that? Not to be loved; never to have shown love.
-- Commissioner Nancy Hedford, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
Oblivion together does not frighten me, beloved.
-- Thalassa (in Anne Mulhall's body), "Return to Tomorrow,"

... the things love can drive a man to -- the ecstasies,
the miseries, the broken rules, the desperate chances, the
glorious failures and the glorious victories.
-- McCoy, "Requiem for Methuselah," stardate 5843.7.
The sooner our happiness together begins, the longer it will last.

Too much of anything, even love, isn't necessarily a good thing.
-- Kirk, "The Trouble with Tribbles," stardate 4525.6.

and licks it, or he turns his back on it and starts to wither away.
-- Dr. Boyce, "The Menagerie" ("The Cage"), stardate unknown.
The people of Gideon have always believed that life is sacred.
That the love of life is the greatest gift .. we are incapable
of destroying or interfering with the creation of that which we
love so deeply -- life in every form from fetus to developed being.
-- Hodin of Gideon, "The Mark of Gideon," stardate 5423.4.
To live is always desirable.
-- Eleen the Capellan, "Friday's Child," stardate 3498.9.
When dreams become more important than reality, you give up
travel, building, creating; you even forget how to repair the
machines left behind by your ancestors. You just sit living and
reliving other lives left behind in the thought records.
-- Vina, "The Menagerie" ("The Cage"), stardate unknown.
Lots of people drink from the wrong bottle sometimes.
-- Edith Keeler, "The City on the Edge of Forever," stardate unknown.
We [Doctors and Bartenders] both get the same two kinds of
customers -- the living and the dying.
-- Dr. Boyce, "The Menagerie" ("The Cage"), stardate unknown.
There's nothing disgusting about it [the Companion]. It's just
another life form, that's all. You get used to those things.
-- McCoy, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
Immortality consists largely of boredom.
-- Zefrem Cochrane, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
In the strict scientific sense we all feed on death -- even
vegetarians.
-- Spock, "Wolf in the Fold," stardate 3615.4.
Blast medicine anyway! We've learned to tie into every organ in the
human body but one. The brain! The brain is what life is all about.
-- McCoy, "The Menagerie," stardate 3012.4.
Suffocating together ... would create heroic camaraderie.
-- Khan Noonian Singh, "Space Seed," stardate 3142.8.
Death, when unnecessary, is a tragic thing.
-- Flint, "Requiem for Methuselah," stardate 5843.7.
The sight of death frightens them [Earthers].
-- Kras the Klingon, "Friday's Child," stardate 3497.2.
There are some things worth dying for.
-- Kirk, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3201.7.
What a terrible way to die [Lt. D'Amato by having every cell disrupted].
There are no good ways.
-- Sulu and Kirk, "That Which Survives," stardate unknown.
I'm frequently appalled by the low regard you Earthmen have for life.
-- Spock, "The Galileo Seven," stardate 2822.3.
The games have always strengthened us. Death becomes a familiar
pattern. We don't fear it as you do.
-- Proconsul Marcus Claudius, "Bread and Circuses," stardate 4041.2.
To all mankind -- may we never find space so vast, planets so cold,
heart and mind so empty that we cannot fill them with love and warmth
-- Garth, "Dagger of the Mind," stardate 2715.2.
He gave his life in an attempt to save others. Not the worst way to go.
-- Kirk, "The Doomsday Machine," stardate 4202.9
Liberty and freedom have to be more than just words.
-- Kirk, "The Omega Glory," stardate unknown.
Look at these three words written larger than all the rest, and with
special pride never written before or since -- tall words, proudly
saying "We the people" .. these words and the words that follow ...
must apply to everyone or they mean nothing.
-- Kirk, "The Omega Glory," stardate unknown.
We once were as you are. Spears and arrows. There came a time when
our weapons grew faster than our wisdom, and we almost destroyed
ourselves. We learned from this to make a rule during all our travels
never to cause the same to happen to other worlds ... just as a man
must grow in his own way and his own time.
-- Kirk, "A Private Little War," stardate 4211.8.
There are certain absolutes, and one of them is the right of humanoids
to a free and unchained environment -- the right to have conditions
which permit growth.
Another is their right to choose that system which seems to work best
for them.
-- McCoy and Spock, "The Apple," stardate 3715.6.
Human beings do not survive on bread alone ... but on the nourishments
of liberty. For what indeed is a man without freedom ... naught but
a mechanism, trapped in the cogwheels of eternity.
-- Harry Mudd, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
There are many who are uncomfortable with what we have created. It is
almost a biological rebellion. A profound revulsion against the planned
communities, the programming, the sterilized, artfully balanced
atmospheres. They hunger for an Eden, where spring comes.
We all do. The cave is deep in our memories.
-- Spock and Kirk, "The Way to Eden," stardate 5832.3.
All the little things you and I understand and expect from life, such
as: equality; kindness; justice ...
-- Spock, "The Cloud Minders," stardate 5818.4.
A species that enslaves other beings is hardly superior -- mentally
or otherwise.
-- Kirk, "The Gamesters of Triskelion," stardate 3211.7.
It's wrong to create a whole race of humans to live as slaves.
-- Number One, "The Menagerie" ("The Cage"), stardate unknown.
To restrict a segment of the population to such hardship is unthinkable
in an evolved culture.
-- Spock, "The Cloud Minders," stardate 5818.4
The highest of all our laws states your world is yours and will
always remain yours.
-- Kirk, "Friday's Child," stardate 3497.2.
I don't think we have the right or the wisdom to interfere, however
a planet is evolving.
-- Kirk, "The Omega Glory," stardate unknown.
It is one of our most important laws that none of us may interfere
with the affairs of others.
-- Kirk, "Bread and Circuses," stardate 4040.7.
Our people don't believe in slavery.
-- Kirk, "Bread and Circuses," stardate 4040.7.
We are wise enugh to know we are wise enough not to interfere with
the way of a man or another world.
-- Kirk, "A Private Little War," stardate 4211.8.
How will we live?
You'll learn to build houses to keep warm. You'll work. ... Humans
have survived under worse conditions. It's a matter of evolution.
Give it time.
-- Kara the Eymorg and Kirk, "Spock's Brain," stardate 5432.3.
The only tool diplomacy has is language.
-- Hodin of Gideon, "The Mark of Gideon," stardate 5423.4.
We're free people. We belong to no one.
-- Kirk, "The Gamesters of Triskelion," stardate 3259.2.
To kill is a breaking of civil and moral laws we've lived by for
thousands of years.
-- Dr. Richard Daystrom, "The Ultimate Computer," stardate 4731.3.
We must acknowledge once and for all that the purpose of diplomacy
is to prolong a crisis.
-- Spock, "The Mark of Gideon," stardate 5423.4.
Diplomacy should be a job left to diplomats.
-- Ambassador Fox, "A Taste of Armageddon," stardate 3192.5.
In every revolution, there's one man with a vision.
-- Kirk, "Mirror, Mirror," stardate unknown.
The customs and history of your race show a unique hatred of captivity.
Even when it's pleasant and benevolent, you prefer death. This makes
you too violent and dangerous a species for our needs.
-- The Keeper, "The Menagerie" ("The Cage"), stardate unknown.
Diplomats and bureaucrats may function differently, but they
achieve exactly the same results.
-- Spock, "The Mark of Gideon," stardate 5423.4.
Philosophic kings have no need of titles.
-- Parmen the Platonian, "Plato's Stepchildren," stardate 5784.3.
It's time you learned that freedom is never a gift. It has to be earned.
-- Kirk, "The Return of the Archons," stardate 3157.4.
The problem with the Nazis wasn't simply that their leaders were the
evil, psychotic men they were. But the main problem, I think was
the leader principle.
A man who holds that much power, even with the best intentions, just
can resist the urge to play God.
-- Kirk and McCoy, "Patterns of Force," stardate 2534.7.
You're from the planet Earth. There is no persecution on your
planet.
There was persecution on Earth once; I remember reading about it in my
history class.
-- Lokai of Cheron and Chekov, "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield,"
stardate 5730.2.
You'll learn to care for yourselves, with our help. And there's no
trick to putting fruit on trees; you might even enjoy it. You'll learn
to build for yourselves, think for yourselves, and what you create is
yours. That's what we call freedom. You'll like it. A lot.
-- Kirk, "The Apple," stardate 3715.6.
I know this world needs help. That's why some of my generation are
kind of crazy and rebels. We wonder if we're going to be alive
when we're thirty.
-- Roberta Lincoln, "Assignment Earth," stardate unknown.
If change is -- inevitable -- predictable -- beneficial -- doesn't
logic demand that you be a part of it?
One man cannot summon the future.
But one man can change the present!
-- Kirk and the Alternate Spock, "Mirror, Mirror," stardate unknown
If you're speaking of worships of sorts, we represent many beliefs.
-- McCoy, "Bread and Circuses," stardate 4040.7.
Only a fool would stand in the way of progress.
-- Kirk, "The Ultimate Computer," stardate 4725.4.
Physical reality is consistent with universal laws. Where the laws do
not operate, there is no reality -- we judge reality by the responses
of our senses. Once we are convinced of the reality of a given
situation, we abide by its rules.
-- Spock, "Spectre of the Gun," stardate 4385.3.
Physical laws simply cannot be ignored. Existence cannot be without them.
-- Spock, "Spectre of the Gun," stardate 4385.3.
We exist in a universe which co-exists with a multitude of others in the
same physical space. For certain brief periods of time, an area of
their space overlaps an area of ours.
-- Spock, "The Tholian Web," stardate 5693.2.
Possible existence of a parallel universe has been scientifically
conceded.
-- Spock, "The Alternative Factor," stardate 3088.7.
We estimate there are millions of planets with intelligent life. We
haven't begun to map them.
-- Kirk, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
I remind you that humans are only a tiny minority in this galaxy.
-- Spock, "The Apple," stardate 3715.6.
What are the odds in such absolute duplication of life forms in
another galaxy?
The chances are very much against it.
-- Kirk and Spock, "By Any Other Name," stardate 4657.5.
Light and warmth! That's necessary to all humanoids.
-- Kirk, "The Cloud Minders," stardate 5818.4.
Without water, we're all just three or four pounds of chemicals.
-- McCoy, "the Omega Glory," stardate unknown.
The actual theory is that all life forms evolved from the lower levels
to the more advanced stages.
-- Spock, "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield," stardate 5730.2.
A mutated, superior man could also be a wonderful thing ... the
forerunner of a new and better kind of human being!
-- Dr. Elizabeth Dehaver, "Where No Man Has Gone Before,"
stardate 1312.9.
They're [androids are] perfect. Flawless, mentally and physically. No
weaknesses, perfectly disciplined. No vices, no fears, no faults. Just
a sense of purpose.
-- McCoy, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
If it is the only survivor of a dead race, to kill it would be a crime
against science.
-- Spock, "The Devil in the Dark," stardate 3196.1.
Instruments register only through things they're designed to register.
Space still contains infinite unknowns.
-- Spock, "The Naked Time," stardate 1704.2.
Back in the twentieth century, the H-bomb was the ultimate weapon,
their doomsday machine. And we used something like it to destroy
another doomsday machine. Probably the first time such a weapon has
ever been used for constructive purposes.
-- Kirk, "The Doomsday Machine," stardate 4202.9.
There are certain universal ideas and concepts common to all intelligent
life. This device [the universal translator] instantaneously compares
the frequency of brain wave patterns, selects those ideas and concepts
it recognizes, and then provides the necessary grammar.
Then it simply translates its findings into English.
-- Kirk and Spock, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
Earth history, remember? Like the passenger pigeon or the buffalo ...
once there were millions of them; prairies black with them. One herd
covered three whole states. When they moved -- like thunder.
-- Professor Robert Crater, "The Man Trap," stardate 1513.8.
As we know, the value of pi is a transcendental figure without
resolution.
-- Spock, "Wolf in the Fold," stardate 3615.4.
Less than one ounce of anti-matter here is more powerful than
ten thousand cobalt bombs.
Let's hope it's as powerful as man will ever get.
-- Ensign Garrovick and Kirk, "Obsession," stardate 3620.7.
If I let go a hammer on a planet having a positive gravity, I need not
see it fall to know that it has, in fact, fallen.
-- Spock, "Court Martial," stardate 2948.9.
Crazy way to travel. Spreading a man's molecules all over the universe.
-- McCoy, "Obsession," 3620.7.
All men are brothers.
-- Kirk, "Bread and Circuses," stardate 4040.9.
...humanity...[the] striving of man to achieve greatness through
his own resources.
-- Anton Karidian, "The Conscience of the King," stardate 2819.1.
To be human is also to seek pleasure. To laugh -- to dance.
-- Flint, "Requiem for Methuselah," stardate 5843.7.
Being human does have certain advantages -- being able to appreciate
the beauty of a flower, of a woman.
-- Kirk, "By Any Other Name," stardate 4658.9.
... the intellect is not all -- but its cultivation must come first,
or the individual makes errors -- wastes time in unprofitable pursuits.
-- Flint, "Requiem for Methuselah," stardate 5843.7.
My people pride themselves on being the greatest, most successful
gamblers in the universe. We compete for everything: power, fame,
women. Everything we desire. And it is our nature to win! For
proof I offer you our exploration of this galaxy.
-- Kirk, "The gamesters of Triskelion," stardate unknown.
Freedom of movement and choice produced the human spirit.
-- Dr. Brown, "What are Little Girls Made Of?" stardate 2712.4.
Our species can only survive if we have obstacles to overcome. You
remove those obstacles. Without them to strengthen us, we will
weaken and die.
-- Kirk, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3220.3.
We're the same. We share the same history, the same heritage, the same
lives. We're tied together beyond any untying. Man or woman, it makes
no difference. We're human. We couldn't escape from each other even
if we wanted to -- that's how you do it, Lieutenant! By remembering who
and what you are! A bit of flesh and blood afloat in a universe without
end. And the only thing that's truly yours is the rest of humanity.
That's where your duty lies!
-- Kirk, "Who Mourns for Adonais?" stardate 3468.1.
The semi-conscious mind is a tricky thing. A man never knows just how
much is real or how much is imagination.
-- McCoy, "Obsession," stardate 3620.7.
It's the custom of my people to help one another when we're in trouble.
-- Kirk, "The Gamesters of Triskelion," stardate 3259.2.
We've each learned to be delighted with what we are.
-- Kirk, "The Savage Curtain," stardate 5906.4.
Where I come from, size shape or color makes no difference.
-- Kirk, "Plato's Stepchildren," stardate 5784.3.
In our century, we've learned not to fear words.
-- Uhura, "The Savage Curtain," stardate 5906.4.
Now, I don't pretend to tell you how to find happiness and love, when
every day is a struggle to survive. But I do insist that you do survive,
because the days and the years ahead are worth living for!
-- Edith Keeler, "The City on the Edge of Forever," stardate unknown.
One day soon, man is going to be able to harness incredible energy --
maybe even the atom. Energy that could ultimately hurl men to other
worlds in some sort of spaceship. And the men that reach out into space
will find ways to feed the hungry millions of the world, and to cure their
diseases. They'll be able to find a way to give each man hope and a
common future. And those are the days worth living for.
-- Edith Keeler, "The City on the Edge of Forever," stardate unknown.
A person's strongest dreams are about what he can't do.
-- Vina, "The Menagerie" ("The Cage), stardate unknown.
What is man but that lofty spirit -- that sense of enterprise.
-- Kirk, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
No wants -- no needs? We weren't meant for that. None of us. Man
stagnates if he has no ambition, no desire to be more than he is.
-- Kirk, "This Side of Paradise," stardate 3417.5.
Most people are afraid of being alone.
-- Kirk, "The Mark of Gideon," stardate 5423.4.
You know the greatest danger facing us is ourselves, and
irrational fear of the unknown. There is no such thing as the
unknown. Only things temporarily hidden, temporarily not understood.
-- Kirk, "The Corbomite Maneuver," stardate 1514.0.
No one knows how he'll act under pressure.
-- Sulu, "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield," stardate 5730.2.
It is the nature of our species to be free.
-- Kirk, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3219.8.
When the personality of a human is involved, exact predictions are
hazardous.
-- McCoy, "The Lights of Zetar," stardate 5725.6.
Most of us are attracted by beauty and repelled by ugliness -- one of
the last of our prejudices.
-- Kirk, "Is There In Truth No Beauty?" stardate 5630.7.
We faced a crisis in our earlier nuclear age. We found the wisdom not
to destroy ourselves.
-- Kirk, "return to Tomorrow," stardate 4768.3.
We humans have a streak of barbarism in us -- appalling, but
there nevertheless.
-- Kirk, "Space Seed," stardate 3141.9.
Believe me, there's nothing tougher to overcome [than a sense of
purpose], even among humans.
-- McCoy, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
In this galaxy, there's a mathematical probability of three million
Earth-type planets. And in all of the universe, three million, million
galaxies like this. But in all of that, and perhaps more, only one
of each of us.
-- McCoy, "Balance of Terror," stardate 1709.9.
Maybe we weren't meant for Paradise. Maybe we were meant to fight our
way through. Struggle. Claw our way up, scratch for every inch of the
way. Maybe we can't stroll to the music of the lutes. We must march
to the sound of drums.
-- Kirk, "This Side of Paradise," stardate 3417.7.
We are not killers.
-- Chekov, "Let That Be Your Last Battlefield," stardate 5730.6.
To us, killing is murder, even for revenge.
-- Kirk, "Plato's Stepchildren," stardate 5784.3.
When a man feels guilty about something -- something too terrible to
remember -- he blots it out of his conscious memory.
-- McCoy, "Wolf in the Fold," stardate 3614.9.
We've come a long way in five thousand years.
But you're still of the same nature.
-- Kirk and Apollo, "Who Mourns for Adonais?" stardate 3468.1.
We're a most promising species, Mr. Spock, as predators go. Did you
know that?
I frequently have my doubts.
I don't. Not any more. And maybe in a thousand years or so, we'll be
able to prove it.
-- Kirk and Spock, "Arena," stardate 3046.2.
Mankind has no need for gods. We find the One quite adequate.
-- Kirk, "Who Mourns for Adonais?" stardate 3468.1.
We think of ourselves as the most powerful beings in the universe.
It's unsettling to discover that we're wrong.
-- Kirk, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3210.7.
We all are vulnerable, in one way or another.
-- Kirk, "Is There In Truth No Beauty?" stardate 5630.7.
We prefer to help ourselves. We make mistakes, but we're human --
and maybe that's the word that best explains us.
-- Kirk, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
"Let me help." A hundred years or so from now, I believe, a famous
novelist will write a classic using that theme. He'll recommend those
three words even over "I love you."
-- Kirk, "The City on the Edge of Forever," stardate unknown.
Mankind -- ready to kill.
That's the way it was in 1881.
I wonder how humanity managed to survive?
We overcame our instinct for violence.
-- Spock and Kirk, "Spectre of the Gun," stardate 4385.3.
Man is not just a biological unit that you can patch together.
-- McCoy, "The Changeling," stardate 3541.9.
I speak of rights! A machine has none; a man must. If you do not
grant him that right, you have brought us down to the level of the
machine; indeed, you have elevated that machine above us!
-- Samuel T. Cogley, "Court Martial," stardate 2949.9.
Your will to survive, your love of life, your passion to know ...
Everything that is truest and best in all species of beings has been
revealed to you. Those are the qualities that make a civilization
worthy to survive.
-- Lai the Vian, "The Empath," stardate 5121.5.
Those pressures are everywhere -- in everyone, urging him to what you
call "savagery." The private hells -- the inner needs and mysteries --
the beast instinct. As human beings, that is the way it is. To be
human is to be complex. You can't avoid a little ugliness -- from
within -- and from without.
-- Kirk, "Requiem for Methuselah," stardate 5843.7.
They used to say, if man could fly, he'd have wings. But he did fly;
he discovered he had to. Do you wish that the first Apollo mission
hadn't reached the moon, or that we hadn't gone on to Mars and
then to the nearest star? That's like saying you wish that you still
operated with scalpels and sewed your patients up with catgut, like your
great, great, great-grandfather used to do ... Dr. McCoy is right in
pointing out the enormous danger potential in any contact with life
and intelligence as fantastically advanced as this. But I must point out
that the possibilities -- the potential for knowledge and advancement is
equally great. Risk -- risk is our business.
-- Kirk, "Return to Tomorrow," stardate 4768.3.
Improve a mechanical device and you may double productivity. But
improve man, you gain a thousandfold.
-- Khan Noonian Singh, "Space Seed," stardate 3142.8.
The time is past. There is no room for gods.
-- Apollo, "Who Mourns for Adonais?" stardate 3468.1.
The [human] species is capable of much affection.
-- Deela the Scalosian, "Wink of an Eye," stardate 5710.5.
That's [growing old] been happening to men and women for a long time.
I've got the feeling it's one of the pleasanter things about being
human, as long as you grow old together.
-- Zefrem Cochrane, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3220.3.
You have here an unusual opportunity to appraise the human mind, or to
examine, in Earth terms, the roles of good and evil in a man. His
negative side, which you call hostility, lust, violence; and his
positive side, which Earth people express as compassion, love,
tenderness. And what is it that makes one man an exceptional leader?
We see here indications that it is his negative side which makes him
strong -- that his evil side, if you will, properly controlled and
disciplined, is vital to his strength. Your negative side, removed
from you, the power of command begins to elude you.
-- Spock, "The Enemy Within," stardate 1673.1.
Captain, I'm beginning to understand why you Earthmen enjoy gambling.
No matter how carefully one computes the odds of success, there is
still a certain exhilaration in the risk.
-- Spock, "Patterns of Force," stardate 2534.7.
In critical moments men sometimes see exactly what they wish to see.
-- Spock, "The Tholian Web," stardate 5693.2.
Humans do have an amazing capacity for believing what they choose --
and excluding that which is painful.
-- Spock, "And The Children Shall Lead," stardate 5029.5.
It does often seem that man must fight to live.
-- Flavius Maximus, "Bread and Circuses," stardate 4040.9.
... aloneness. You are so alone. You live out your lives in the
shell of flesh, self-contained, separate. How lonely you are; how
terribly lonely.
-- Kollos, the Medusan Ambassador (through Spock), "Is There In
Truth No Beauty?" stardate 5630.7.
Humans smile with so little provocation.
-- Spock, "Journey to Babel," stardate 3842.3.
Curios, how often you humans manage to obtain that which you do not want.
-- Spock, "Errand of Mercy," stardate 3198.4.
... primitive structure [Scotty]. Insufficient safeguards built in.
Breakdown can occur from many causes. Self-maintenance systems low
reliability.
-- Nomad, "The Changeling," stardate 3541.9.
Where did your race get this ridiculous predilection for resistance. You
examine any object; you question everything.
-- Korob from Pyris VII, "Catspaw," stardate 3018.2.
This thing you call language, though; most remarkable. You depend
on it for so very much. But is there any one of you really its master?
-- Kollos, the Medusan Ambassador (through Spock), "Is There In
Truth No Beauty?" stardate 5630.7.
You [humans] are, after all, essentially irrational.
-- Spock, "Metamorphosis," stardate 3220.3.
Oh, how absolutely typical of your species! You don't understand
something so you become fearful.
-- Trelane, "The Squire of Gothos," stardate 2124.5.
These shells in which we have encased ourselves -- they have such
heightened senses. To feel, to hear, to smell. How do humans manage to
exist in these fragile cases?
-- Rojan the Kelvan, "By Any Other Name," stardate 4657.5.
There are many aspects of human irrationality I do not yet comprehend.
Obsession, for one. The persistent single-minded fixation on one idea.
-- Spock, "Obsession," stardate 3619.6.
Do you know that you're one of the few predator species that preys
even on itself?
-- Trelane, "The Squire of Gothos," stardate 2124.5.
Earthment like Rameses, Alexander, Ceasar, Napoleon, Hitler, Lee Kuan.
Your whole Earth history is made up of men seeking absolute power.
-- Spock, "Patterns of Force," stardate 2534.7.
Man is ultimately superior to any mechanical device.
-- Kirk, "The Corbomite Maneuver," stardate 1514.0.
We cannot allow any race as greedy and corruptible as yours to have
free run of the galaxy.
-- Norman the android, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
Your species is self-destructive.
-- Norman the android, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
[The people of Vaal] have taken their first step [towards achieving
true human stature]. They've learned to kill.
-- Spock, "The Apple," stardate 3715.6.
Earthmen fear to bargain honestly.
-- Kras the Klingon, "Friday's Child," stardate 3497.2.
You like to think of yourselves as complex creatures, but you're flawed.
One gains admittance to your minds through many levels. You have too
many to keep track of yourselves. There are unguarded entrances to
any human mind.
-- Sylvia of Pyris VII, "Catspaw," stardate 3018.2.
Sparing your helpless enemy who surely would have destroyed you, you
demonstrated the advanced trait of mercy, something we hardly expected.
We feel that there may be hope for your kind. Therefore you will
not be destroyed. It would not be civilized.
-- The Metron, "Arena," stardate 3046.2.
...hesitation ... is an hereditary trait of your species, and
suddenly faced by the unknown, or imminent danger, a human will
invariably experience a split second of indecision. He hesitates.
-- Spock, "Obsession," stardate 3620.7.
You [humans] find it easier to understand the death of one than the
death of a million.
-- Spock, "The Immunity Syndrome," stardate 4307.1.
You striving, bickering, foolishly brave humans.
-- Apollo, "Who Mourns for Adonais?" stardate 3468.1.
Unhappiness is the state which occurs in the human when wants and
desires are not fulfilled.
-- Spock, "I, Mudd," stardate 4513.3.
Humans are very peculiar. I often find them unfathomable, but an
interesting psychological study.
-- Spock, "By Any Other Name," stardate 4658.9.
You are still half-savage -- but there is hope.
