"Space Seed" Line-by-Line!

Kirk: They're available to any patient on the viewing screen. Dr. McCoy will show you how to tie into the library tapes.
 
Kirk: A common courtesy, Mr. Spock. He's going to spend the rest of his days in our time, it's only decent to help him catch up. Would you estimate him to be a product of selective breeding?
 
Spock: There is that possibility, Captain. His age would be correct. In 1993, a group of these young supermen did seize power simultaneously in over forty nations.
 
Kirk: Well, they were hardly supermen. They were aggressive, arrogant, they began to battle among themselves....
 
Spock: Because the scientists overlooked one fact: Superior ability breeds superior ambition.
 
Kirk: Interesting if true. They created a group of Alexander's, Napolean's
 
SPOCK: I have collected some names and made some counts. By my estimate, there were some eighty or ninety of these young supermen unaccounted for when they were finally defeated.
 
KHAN: I've been reading up on starships, but they have one luxury not mentioned in the manuals.
