“We stand today on the edge of a new frontier-the frontier of the 1960s, a frontier of unknown opportunities and perils-a frontier of unfulfilled hopes and threats.” ~ John Fitzgerald Kennedy

"... a dream that became a reality and spread throughout the stars" -- Kirk (Whom Gods Destroy)

"Right out of hell, I saw it!" -- Commodore Decker, describing the Planet Killer (The Doomsday Machine)
"You will die of suffocation, in the icy cold of space" -- Kang (Day of the Dove)
"The mid-1990s was the era of your so-called Third World War" -- Spock (Space Seed)

"Random chance seems to have operated in our favor" -- Spock
"In plain, non-Vulcan English, we've been lucky" -- McCoy

"Computer, compute to the last digit the value of pi" -- Spock (Wolf in the Fold)
"What are we looking at, a 20th century Rome?" -- Kirk (Bread and Circuses)

"I am not aware of anyone who fits that description, Captain" -- Spock
"No, Mr. Spock, I didn't think you would be" -- Kirk (The Apple)
"Mr. Spock, the women on your planet are logical. That's the only planet in the galaxy that can make that claim." -- Kirk (Elaan of Troyius)

"She has always been so." -- Sarek
"Indeed. Why did you marry her?" -- Spock
"It seemed the logical thing to do at the time." -- Sarek (Journey To Babel)

"Stop it? I'm counting on it!" -- Kirk (A Taste of Armegedon)
"Now Mr. Spock, there's really something about all this that I don't understand, so maybe you could explain it to me, logically of course... Now, when you jettisoned the fuel, and ignited it, you knew that there was virtually no chance of it being seen and yet you did it anyway. Now that seems to me like an act of desperation." -- Kirk
"Quite correct, Captain." -- Spock
"Now we all know, and I'm sure the doctor would agree with me, that desperation is a highly emotional state of mind. So how does your well known logic explain that?" -- Kirk
"Quite simply captain, I examined the problem from all angles, and it was plainly hopeless. Logic informed me that under the circumstances, the only logical action would have to be one of desperation. Logical decision, logically arrived at." -- Spock
"Ah-huh, I see... So you reasoned that it was time for an emotional outburst." -- Kirk
"Well I... Wouldn't exactly put it in those terms captain, but those are essentially the facts." -- Spock
[sighs] "You aren't going to admit that for the first time in your life, you committed a purely human, emotional act?" -- Kirk
[crosses arms and slowly shakes head] "No, sir." -- Spock
[laughing] "Mr. Spock, you are a stubborn man." -- Kirk
[raises eyebrows] "Yes, sir." -- Spock (The Galileo Seven)
