Best Trek Quotes Thread

[Belz...]

Hey,

Why don't we take turns posting some of the great lines from Star Trek's history ? Don't forget to mention which character and which movie or episode and series the quote is from.

I'll go first:

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! - Khan, TWOK

 

[ZapBrannigan]

Lots of people drink from the wrong bottle sometimes.

"City on the Edge of Forever"

 

[Portal]

"Admiral, there be whales here!" Scotty - The Voyage Home

"NCC-1701... No bloody A, B, C, or D." Scotty - Relics TNG

"Don't try to be a great man, just be a man. And let history make its own judgments"
Zefram Cochrane - Star Trek: First Contact (well, 10 years after first contact)

My favorite quote.

 

[The Old Mixer]

"Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical....That's the only planet in the galaxy that can make that claim."

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! - Khan, TWOK

You left out the most quoteworthy part:

"KHAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!"

Always my favorite, from Bones: "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. And in all of that and perhaps more, only one of each of us. Don't destroy the one named Kirk."

 

[Sector 7]

Always my favorite, from Bones: "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. And in all of that and perhaps more, only one of each of us. Don't destroy the one named Kirk."

You beat me to it. This is my favorite line in all of Trek. As a gay teen contemplating suicide in the mid-1970s, it spoke to me as nothing else ever has.

or from DSN

"It's a fake!!"

 

[1001001]

"Damn it Bones, you're a doctor. You know that pain and guilt can't be taken away with the wave of a magic wand. They're the things we carry with us, the things that make us who we are. If we lose them, we lose ourselves. I don't want my pain taken away. I need my pain."

- James T. Kirk, Star Trek V

I'm very glad you made it through and are still here.

And some people say there's no quality to Star Trek. But I've found often that those people are the same who tend to demean others.
