Worf from Sins of the Father: "it is a good day to die, and the day is not yet over."

Is that guy tough or what????!

 

[CmndrSela318]

I just remembered this one.
From Next Gen. episode Deja Q.
Q(to Worf): Eat any good books lately?

 

[JiNX-01]

"You know, there are some words I've known since I was a schoolboy. 'With the first link, the chain is forged. The first speech censored, the first thought forbidden, the first freedom denied, chains us all irrevocably.' Those words were uttered by Judge Aaron Satie as wisdom and warning. The first time any man's freedom is trodden on, we're all damaged."
- Picard, "The Drumhead"

This was great, and so prescient. I had this as my sig when the Bush administration was bullying people who disagreed with the post 9/11 plan to invade Iraq by questioning their patriotism.


This is also one of my favorites:
"If you can't take a little bloody nose, maybe you ought to go back home and crawl under your bed. It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires, both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid."

Trip and Soval in "Awakening":

"Mind if I ask you something? Why are you doing this? I never got the impression that you cared that much about Humans. Seems like... you were always finding something new to complain about."

"I lived on Earth for more than 30 years, Commander. In that time I developed an affinity for your world and its people."

"You did a pretty good job of hiding it."

"Thank you."

I think it is actually more relevant when thinking about Bush's Patriot Act

Oh, yeah, that too. You were a "traitor" if you objected to the attack on the Constitution.

I just thought of a good Worf line from the DS9 season 7 episode TAKE ME OUT TO THE HOLOSUITE.

Worf: Death to the opposition!

 

[TheOtherGuy]

MC Coy on the bridge whispering to Kirk about Spock "Please don't tell him I sayd he was the best first officer of the fleet"

Spock "Thank you dr McCoy!"

Kirk "You where so concerned about his Vulcan eyes you forgot about his Vulcan ears "

I just remembered this one.
From Next Gen. episode Deja Q.
Q(to Worf): Eat any good books lately?

I love that one!

Macrohead....with a microbrain!

 

[BillJ]

"Fate protects fools, children and ships named Enterprise." - Riker

 

[Greg Cox]

"No Kill I."

And, yeah, Q's speech about space being not for the timid is great, too.

 

[Sky]

"Fate protects fools, children and ships named Enterprise." - Riker

Yeah, that's an excellent one.

I also remembered this Amok Time quote:

"After a time, you may find that having is not so pleasing a thing after all as wanting. It is not logical... but it is often true."

 

[CmndrSela318]

This is from DS9 season one episode Q-Less.

Q: You hit me! Picard never hit me.
Sisko: I'm not Picard.

 

[Stoek]

If we're going to be damned Number One, let's be damned for what we really are.

In our time we've learned not to fear words.

I doubt any "God" who inflicts pain for his own amusement.

 

[Paradon]

"To be"!

"Or not to be"! [BOOM!!!]

General Chang

"Worf! You are what I call: a perfect Klingon"!

Kaylah

"You Klingon bastards! You killed my son"!

Capt. Kirk

 

[TiberiusMaximus]

"Captain, I believe I speak for all of us when I say: to hell with our orders."
-Data, First Contact

"I can't wait to see the look on your face when we get back to Deep Space Nine and you realize I never existed!"
-Julian Bashir, Trials and Tribble-ations

And pretty much anything Garak says.

Bashir: I can't believe you're not pressing charges.
Garak: Constable Odo and Captain Sisko expressed a similar concern, but really, doctor, there was no harm done.
Bashir: They broke seven of your transverse ribs and fractured your clavicle!
Garak: Ah, but I got off several cutting remarks which no doubt did serious damage to their egos.
Bashir: Garak, this isn't funny.
Garak: I'm serious, doctor! Thanks to your administrations, I'm almost completely healed, but the damage I did to them will last a lifetime.

Quark: I want you to try something. It's an Earth drink. Root beer.
Garak: I couldn't...
Quark: Go on.
Garak: It's vile!
Quark: It's so happy and bubbly and cloy.
Garak: Just like the Federation.
Quark: You know what's worse? If you drink enough of it, you start to like it.
Garak: It's insidious.
Quark: Just like the Federation.

 

[CmndrSela318]

This is from Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country.
This is a Spock line from the end of the movie.
Uhura tells Kirk and crew they're to report to Starfleet to be decomissioned.
Moment of silence.
Then Spocks says this.
Spock: If I were human, I believe my response would be...go to hell.

Now see me busting a gut laughing.
Spock is funny and he probably wasn't even trying to be funny.

 

[OwN]

This episode has some of the best dialogue IMO:

"They arrive separately. They... They struggle together against a common foe, the Beast at Tanagra... "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra!"

 

[BillJ]

"Oh shit!" - Data, Star Trek: Generations

 

[KirkPicard]

Kirk in The Final Frontier:

"Dammit, 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 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!"

Quotable Star Trek by Jill Sherwin is an excellent resource for Trek quotes!
