Best line ever (Captains only)

Kirk to Decker after Decker says he's going to destroy the Doomsday machine:

"Not with my ship you won't!"

To Khan after Paul Winfield offed himself instead of Kirk:

"You've managed to kill just about everybody else, but like a poor marksman you keep missing the target!"

Picard and Riker on how Picard handled the Shelliac:

Riker: "You enjoyed that."

Picard: "You're damn right."

Jellico to Data, (for reasons which i won't bore you with here):

"Data, I want to be in Minos Korva in one hour!"

Pike to a Talosian:

"I'm willing to bet you're too intelligent to kill for no reason."(points weapon at Talosian's head) "On the other hand, I've got a reason!"
 
Old Trek: Kirk (with a little helpl from Mudd) "Theres only one kind of woman, or one kind of man for that matter. You either believe in yourself, or you dont!

NuTrek: I've got....your gun!
 
Picard: "I am... Locutus of Borg. Your life as it has been... It over. From this point onward you'll service... us."
Chilling delivery.
 
^Allow moi....

"Mr. Kim...at ease before you sprain something."

Awesome line--and it establishes her as a character forever!
 
The way Kirk says "Fire" near the end of VI has always been a favorite of mine.

I just really, really, really like the way he says it.
 
We won't go back.....

You don't know what it's like in our universe, the Federation's gone the Borg are everywhere!

NO WE WON'T GO BACK!!!!
 
I take back the one i said earlier (original Kirk) and make it this one instead.

"I don't need to be lectured by you. I was out saving the galaxy when your grandfather was in diapers!" Kirk to Picard in Generations. Love that line!
 
^From the same flick:

"I...take it the odds are against us...and the situation is grim?" :shifty:

"You could say that!" ;)

"Y'know...If Spock were here, he'd say I was an irrational...illogical human being...for going on a mission like this...."

:wtf:

"...Sounds like fun!" :cool:
 
Wow. 2 pages and no love for Janeway

You know, I can't think of a great line for her--she was great because of body language and just...who she was...quotes just don't come to mind. She's my fave captain, though.

I know I'm misquoting a bit but--Kirk to Scotty in Doomsday Machine--"You worry about your miracle, and I'll worry about mine."
 
Picard: "I am... Locutus of Borg. Your life as it has been... It over. From this point onward you'll service... us."
Chilling delivery.
I think “Your resistance is hopeless, Number One” was even better.

A terrible line from the same episode (paraphrasing): “I have been reluctantly forced to conclude that Commander Shelby is the best choice for first officer.” What kind of a CO says something like that?
 
^
Guess Riker was making it known that he had no choice but to choose Shelby. Wanted the others to know that if it weren't for the exigency of the situation, he'd not have chosen Shelby.
 
^And remember, throughout Part 1, Shelby was being quite a pain in the rear for a LOT of the senior staff....
